## The honest read

Viking Floors is a Middleboro hardwood flooring shop that BBB lists as a division of Lovstad Floors, Inc., founded in 1995 and run by Cindy Lovstad and Debbie Lovstad; Angi's listing separately puts it at about 30 years in the trade, and HomeAdvisor describes it as family-owned.

Its written record runs from 2010 to 2017, with reviewers most often describing full sanding-and-refinishing jobs run by Eric, working alongside his father: multi-day projects with careful prep, a coat-by-coat finish schedule, and estimates that held even when extra repairs came up along the way. A 2011 review recalled two thresholds fixed at no charge beyond the original quote and called the company the cheapest of the estimates gathered, and a 2010 review described floors "brought back to life" in a home the same family then hired Viking again for.

One 2012 review is a real exception: a homeowner reported poly overspray, stained baseboards, and a job the crew never came back to finish. The same review notes that the owner called afterward to apologize and offered to make it right, which the reviewer said they appreciated.

There's a wrinkle worth checking before booking: a Houzz listing for "Viking Floors - Plymouth" gives a different address, phone number and website than the Middleboro business described above, so it may be a separate company under a similar name rather than a second location of the same shop. Anyone reaching out should confirm which Viking Floors they're actually contacting.

**Strengths:**
- Careful multi-day refinishing — reviewers from 2010–2012 describe thorough sanding and finish work
- Competitive pricing — a 2011 review called it the cheapest of several estimates
- Extra repairs covered — a threshold fix was made at no charge beyond the quote
- Consistent praise for quality — a 2017 review called the work a cut above other refinishers

**Concerns:**
- Unfinished poly work — a 2012 review reported overspray, a missed finish, and a no-show

**Where sources disagree:**
- A Houzz profile for "Viking Floors - Plymouth" lists a different address, phone number and website than the Middleboro business BBB, Angi and HomeAdvisor describe, so it may be a separate company sharing the name rather than a second location of the same shop.
- BBB and Angi list two different Middleboro street addresses (2 Heather Path vs. 37 Katrina Road) for what matching 1995-founding/30-year tenure figures suggest is the same business.
