J&N SURFACE PROS

Ask around Revere for a flooring install and one name keeps coming up on two different review sites: Nick, of J&N Surface Pros. The company says it's family-owned and has done this work for 20-plus years, based in Revere and reaching into the North Shore and Merrimack Valley, installing LVT, LVP, carpet, tile, laminate and sheet vinyl for houses and businesses. Seventeen reviews have piled up since 2025 across Google and Thumbtack, and every single one lands five stars — a perfect 5.0 from 13 ratings on Google, an Excellent 4.9 from 30 on Thumbtack with a 2025 Top Pro badge. What people describe is specific, not generic: a ruined hallway floor swapped out right before a home sale (with some painting thrown in), a 60-square-foot half bath retiled with help picking the exact LVT, worn carpet pulled and replaced with LVP, a stair runner coordinated entirely by phone. Nearly every account circles back to the same thing — Nick walks people through the options, shows up when he says he will, and keeps them posted while the crew, sometimes including his father, does the work. Three of those reviews are from the past six months, and none of them are negative. The one blemish worth knowing about sits on Thumbtack, where 3% of its 30 ratings come in at one star — a small share that doesn't turn up among the written reviews on the page, but it's there in the breakdown. The company's own site also lists a registration number that hasn't been checked against the state registry; Massachusetts exempts floor-covering-only contractors from its home-improvement licensing requirement, so that absence of independent verification isn't unusual for this trade. For a flooring swap — carpet to LVP, a stair runner, a small bathroom retile — the pattern here is a responsive, hands-on crew that keeps homeowners posted from quote to cleanup. Worth asking about current lead times, since none of the reviews say how far out they're booking.
