If It’s Time To Remodel And You Need Hardwood Flooring Installation, We’d Love To Talk To You!

Your home should give you the pride of ownership you deserve, not the annoying feeling of ‘putting up with’ some tired or worn out flooring. Maybe your carpet is old and has done it’s time or it just looks out of date.

Or worse yet, maybe someone else had your floors installed and they display their taste, not yours. That makes you feel that you’re living in someone else’s house, not your own!

The old floors may be hitting you twice, making you ‘look at the ugly’ every day, and then making you pay for it in the form of lower house value!

You don’t need to put up with this – for less than you might think, you can have real hardwood all around you! Give us a call or fill out the form at the top of this page, and we’ll start you on the road right away to get the beauty and peaceful inner feeling you can only get from luscious wood flooring that shows your taste, installed professionally and artistically by master craftsmen!

Let Us Introduce Ourselves…

My name is . Our installers have been making homes beautiful in the Chicago area for years. We’ve installed tens of thousands of square feet of custom wood floors for local homeowners, general contractors, and high end showrooms in the city and suburbs.

You can have any style of wood, either raw or prefinished, that’s out there, and there are more than most people realize!

Prefinished hardwood comes in more variations than you may imagine.

You can get hand scraped bamboo, wide plank cherry, high gloss oak, micro beveled edge or square edge, preformed artistic medallions and engineered products that are dimensionally stable enough to go in basement rooms.

Whatever look you want, there is a way to achieve it now. FG has a team of installers who can transform your home promptly and efficiently. From experience, we’ve learned how to make the process of remodeling with hardwood go as smooth and trouble free for our clients as is humanly possible.

In the end, you have to decide for yourself, but consider a few things:

To Make The Process Go A Little Smoother

When you fill out the form at the above right, we’ll set a time with you to look at the installation. If you are already working with an architect or designer, we can consult with them directly to get plans or blueprints.

If not, we can help you create a layout and design with your chosen flooring that will make the room look great. Sometimes, looking at a photo of a previous installation or a pattern we’ve done for someone else can give you new design ideas for your home.

We know all the leading wood dealers showrooms in the area and get you the right product at a reasonable cost. On our initial estimate, we measure for order amounts so you will know how much to buy. If we order it for you, we may even be able to save you money over the retail price in some cases.

We put our hardwood quotes in writing, usually in email so you can get your information quickly. You won’t have to wait a long time to get pricing and answers.

When the time comes for the work to be done, we’ll take proper measure to show respect for your home, including using drop cloths to protect surfaces and making sure we clean up the work site each day. Remodeling always has an element of dust and we try to minimize it for your convenience, and again, to show respect for your home and family.

Prefinished wood is ready to walk on the same day it’s installed, whereas raw hardwood needs several more days to sand, stain and finish.

During the job, we keep in touch with you on details. Good communication as your project goes along will help you manage what you want and help us know what you prefer. Some steps may need your input, and that way, the finished product will be your job as well as ours!

Unfortunately remodeling always involves some stress and inconvenience but we will bend over backwards to make it as smooth as possible.

Special Situation: I Got A Low Hardwood Installation Price From A ‘Handyman/Brother-In-Law/Chain Store Installer. Should I Go For The Deal?

Well, obviously it's in our interests to say no this question but let me at least honestly help you to know what things you need to understand to make a wise decision. While a low price is always tempting it's vital to keep in mind that hardwood installation is part building science and part art. It takes time to learn good solid techniques and time to develop the skill so the finished product looks good. If someone spends most of his days on demolition or plumbing or anything else but wood work, how good will he be when it’s time to install your hardwood? That is often the case with handymen and chain store installers.

Our hardwood installers are specialists, and it shows. Handymen often work on apartments and rental properties, and the level of their work may be OK in that setting. So they can honestly say they have experience….but…..We consistently work for the best in the field; high end remodelers and demanding homeowners that don’t put up with second rate work. When you hire us you will get the very best in hardwood installation. Feel free to see our work and speak to our clients, the quality is second to none.

We routinely get calls from people who have had bargain basement hardwood installers commit their crimes against peoples floors. Usually they ask: “Can you fix this”? And unfortunately, the answer is almost always ‘no, we can’t…if the first line of wood is installed crooked, all the other lines will be crooked as well.’ And you can’t take them out and re-install them because  pulling them up  destrots them!

So give your home the update it needs with the installation of any type of hardwood flooring that suits your taste! Give us a call or fill out the form now.
