Higgins Floors LLC

Higgins Floors LLC is a Brighton shop that has stuck to one craft for 29 years: sanding, refinishing, repairing and installing hardwood floors around the Boston area. Nobody has left a customer review for this company on Houzz, BuildZoom, or BBB — all three show zero on file. What stands in for a track record instead is trade recognition: Angie's List gave it its Super Service Award every year from 2007 through 2015, and in a 2011 trade-press interview the company's president was quoted explaining how uneven wear and discoloration tell a homeowner it's time to refinish a floor. Before calling, it's worth asking about paperwork directly. BuildZoom lists an active Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license (#205367) for the company, but also shows a separate EPA renovation certification as inactive — worth confirming if the job touches an older home where lead-safe work rules could apply. With no written customer record to go on, this is a company whose case rests on longevity and past recognition rather than reviews — reasonable for someone specifically wanting hardwood floor work, but ask for references directly since none are published.
