T.S. Century Hardwood Floor

T.S. Century Hardwood Floor is a hardwood flooring specialist based in Dorchester, MA. Angi and HomeAdvisor each show a 4.8-star average from 44 ratings, and reviewers across a decade of jobs consistently point to the same person running the work — several call him the owner. Reviewers describe hardwood installation, refinishing, and repair across a wide range of projects: new floors installed in multiple bedrooms, wide pine boards refinished, carpeted stairs converted to hardwood, and, in a 2020 review, over 3,000 square feet of 1890s hardwood matched and repaired across two homes during the pandemic. A recurring theme is skilled patchwork — in a 2023 review, a homeowner described two previously botched patch jobs being repaired and red oak sections replaced with white wood so seamlessly that "you cannot tell anything was done." Responsiveness comes up often too: reviewers describe quotes turned around within days, and one recalled that after another company failed to show up, the owner came out the same evening and finished the job by the next morning. Pricing is repeatedly called fair. Two reviews stand out as exceptions to an otherwise strong record. In a 2014 review, a homeowner said trim or molding pieces kept breaking off and the company would not return to fix it. In a 2015 review, a homeowner was satisfied overall but noted that a stair repair left a visible seam because only half the tread was replaced rather than the whole piece — worth raising directly if stair or trim work is part of the job. The most recent of these written accounts is dated July 2024, so it's worth confirming current availability and pricing before booking. For homeowners in the Dorchester area needing hardwood floors installed, refinished, or carefully patched to match existing wood, this contractor's decade-long review history points to a specialist reviewers trust to get the color and finish right.
