# Mac Davis Flooring

**Trade:** Flooring · **Address:** 62 Old South Rd, Nantucket, MA 02554 · **Phone:** (508) 228-1027 · **Website:** http://macdavisflooring.com/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 4.9/5** (high confidence) — from 55 reviews across 8 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low.
100% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 5 reviews, 0 negative.

## The honest read

Mac Davis Flooring is a Nantucket hardwood-flooring company — a showroom, its own flooring line, and installation and refinishing crews — based at 62 Old South Road and working across the island and Cape Cod, with reviewed jobs in Chatham and Cotuit. Reviewers consistently name the same project managers and office staff, and national hardwood trade-press listings in 2023 and 2024 credit its certified sales advisors.

The hiring record runs deep and recent: 55 reviews from 2021 through 2026, a 4.9-star Google average across 41 ratings, an A+ BBB grade with no complaints on file, and five reviews in the last six months, none negative. What people praise is specific — original wide-plank pine floors sanded and brought back, white oak installed on schedule in occupied and off-season homes, and a responsive office that keeps owners informed (including photo updates for off-island customers). Builders and trade professionals appear as repeat clients, one crediting the firm on a 22-unit apartment project.

Worth asking about before booking: price positioning. A Reddit commenter who recommended them in 2024 noted the firm is upfront that it will be the high-end quote, selling on premium service and results — so get an itemized proposal and compare scope, not just the bottom line. Porch's 4.3-star average (12 ratings) also sits below the Google headline.

**Strengths:**
- Vintage floor refinishing — original wide-plank pine repeatedly restored to praise
- On-schedule installs — white oak projects delivered as promised, spotless cleanup
- Responsive office — named staff guide selection and keep owners informed
- Trade repeat business — builders credit the firm on multi-unit projects

**Concerns:**
- Premium pricing — Reddit commenter says they are upfront high-end quote

**Where sources disagree:**
- Porch shows 4.3★ from 12 ratings while Google shows 4.9★ from 41 — the Porch tail is older and thinner
