O'Sullivan Flooring

O'Sullivan Flooring installs floors, but almost none of them are in houses. This is a sports-floor contractor: hardwood and rubber gymnasium systems, plus painted court logos and lettering, out of a shop on Willard Street in Quincy. The company says it has been family owned and operated since 1975, with James O'Sullivan as the contact. The work it advertises is institutional. Its own listings describe more than 100 New England gym floors since 2002 and over 1,000 since the company started, with public schools in Boston and Quincy named as long-running accounts. It carries a Maple Flooring Manufacturers Association listing as a sport floor contractor across six New England states, and it bids public jobs — a Massasoit Community College wood dance floor project went to the company at $111,982. Public reviews are close to nonexistent, and the one that exists is bad. A single Google rating sits at one star, and it is a detailed complaint about the quality of a finished installation rather than a vague grumble. One angry customer is not a pattern, but with nothing else on the board there is no counterweight either. A lead-generation directory shows a 4.8 score for the company, which is worth treating carefully — that number comes with no visible reviews behind it and does not square with the only rating a customer actually left. If you are a school, college, or athletic facility looking for a gym floor, this is a contractor with decades of that specific work and public bid history to check. For a homeowner wanting flooring in a house, there is nothing here describing residential jobs — ask directly whether they take on home work at all, and ask for references from projects finished in the last year.
