Ask around Boston about floors and Mago Flooring's owner, Gorvens Rosier, is usually the name that comes back — his crew has taken 238 jobs through Thumbtack alone, where the company holds a 4.9 from 124 ratings and has been named a Top Pro three years running. The business works out of Boston and says it handles residential and commercial flooring across Massachusetts: installation, refinishing and repairs, plus interior and exterior painting. Thumbtack lists it at seven employees and four years in business. The work people describe is the full flooring range rather than one narrow niche. A homeowner with an old house full of pine planks had them refinished before move-in and singled out the detailed breakdown of what the job would include, the fair price, and a crew that hit the estimated timeframe. In Back Bay, an engineered wood installation drew praise for consistent communication with Gorvens — and for the crew coming back after full payment to fix a few small items. A repeat customer on their second Mago job noted the crew finishing ahead of schedule and problem-solving around tricky areas. Another pointed at the small thing that tells you a lot: the house was left clean each day. The pattern runs deep. Fifty-six reviews across five sources going back to 2023, with Google sitting at 4.8 from 52 ratings — that's a long enough history to say the praise isn't a burst of recent friends-and-family. One recent review cuts the other way, and it is worth reading before you book. A customer this June said edges were left unsealed and that they were charged extra for removing and reinstalling baseboards on a flooring job. That is a specific, checkable complaint about both the finish work and the quote, and it is the kind of thing to settle in writing up front: ask whether baseboard removal and reinstallation is inside the number you're given, and what the finishing spec covers at the perimeter of the room. Worth knowing too that Massachusetts flooring work often falls under Home Improvement Contractor registration; the company describes itself as a licensed Massachusetts contractor, so ask for the registration number and confirm it yourself. If you want hardwood refinished, carpet pulled and replaced with LVP, or engineered wood put down in a condo or commercial space, this is a crew with a long track record of showing up when they said they would and answering the phone. Get the scope — baseboards, thresholds, edge sealing — written down before the first day, and you're likely to land where most of their customers did.

Did a terrible job leaving unsealing edges and charging me extra for just removing and reinstalling the baseboards when they did my flooring job. We would not recommend them to anyone

Great communication! We have an old home with pine planks and they refinished it before we moved in. I went with Mago flooring because of the professionalism of communication and detailed breakdown of what their services would include. The price was fair, and they were punctual and got the job done in the timeframe they had estimated.

Wonderful job! This is the second time we have gone with Mago for our floors and they always finish much earlier than anticipated. Communication is fantastic and they do a beautiful job with instillation. We had a few tricky areas but they always problem solve and figure out ways for the space to look its best

Mago Flooring did an excellent job installing engineered wood flooring in my Back Bay apartment. Communication with Gorvens was clear and consistent throughout the project, and he made sure everything was done right. Even after full payment, they came back to address a few minor items to ensure I was completely satisfied. Gorvens and his team are hardworking, professional, and maintained a great attitude from start to finish. Highly recommended!
