Luis was recommended to me and he was very quick to respond, came to look at the job and his team started working on it in a few days. They are efficient and do quality work. Luis explained my options to me, made recommendations and even helped me with some other non floor related repairs. I’m very satisfied with my experience and I think anyone considering villa should do so with confidence Original maple floor, repaired to continue into kitchen, then refinished and stained all 4 rooms and hallway

Second time using Vilas for our new construction home. Very high quality work and materials. Luis was always available to discuss any concerns
We had red oak hardwood floors through our home with signs of wear, water damage, and general distress. Vilas Hardwood Floors, transformed the space. They were extremely easy to work with, communicative daily as we had to leave the premises for work to be done, and completed beautiful work. We are so pleased.
Do not use these these guys. We spent nearly $20,000 refinishing our floors with them and four months later, the floors are peeling and the finish looks horrendous. The work started out great, they did a good job with sanding and repairs, but they were not careful with the stain and poly and we have had to sand and fix moldings and other areas where the product was applied sloppily. They also recommended a high end, more expensive water based polyurethane and the end result is incredibly disappointing. We highlighted issues right after the install as it looked hazy and you could literally see the lines from the foam pads they used from the multiple coats. From our research and experience you should sand between each coat of polyurethane, especially water-based formulas which require sanding between each layer applied, which they did not do. We had cameras in the house and can prove that they did not sand in between coats. Now the floors are peeling in areas, the finish is uneven and if you look at them they scratch. We are afraid to even walk on the floors. We have asked for help for months in addressing the issue and they haven’t even bothered to come look at the issue. Now we have had to try and work with the product companies directly and are in the process of hiring an inspector to come look at their work. A reputable contractor would be assisting to help resolve the issue. We now have floors that look horrendous and we have to deal with the issues ourselves. The fact that they have refused for four months to even come look at the floors proves they know they did a hack job.
