Rafael Floors

I found out about Rafael Floors from the great reviews they have. I was looking for carpet in my 3 bedrooms and hallway of my condo. I looked at a few places that didn’t cut it. When I went to Rafael Floors and spoke with Robert Gomez, I was really impressed with his knowledge about flooring and carpeting. It was obvious he had decades of experience. I told him what I was looking for, and he answered a bunch of questions I had about carpet, quality, and the selection. I went home with several samples to check out how they looked in the different light throughout the day. After looking at the samples in my place for a week, I found the perfect carpet and color I wanted. Robert came over for measurements and an estimate. Everything had gone smoothly and professional to this point where in other places there were flags that would stop me cold, and I would stop the process and move on. The whole selection and purchase process with Robert went smoothly, and they were ready to install the carpet before I was because I had some painting that needed to be done, and I had to delay them several times. When I was finally ready, Juan and Douglas arrived on time to install the carpet. It was a two-day process, and I was really impressed how methodical they were. It was like they were putting together a puzzle they were really familiar with and each part was being sized and put in its place. I later found out that Rafael Floors has a lengthy training process for their installers that takes years. It starts with a 5-year apprentice program where they work under a journeyman installer before they can go out to install a carpet. Juan described to me what a momentous and serious occasion it was after 5 years to finally have a project of his own and being responsible for all the materials and making the customer happy. They did a perfect job and I was one happy customer. That was 3 months ago and I wanted to be sure that others would see my review like I saw others’ so they would know what I know about Rafael Floors. Thanks Robert, Juan, Douglas, Arturo (master installer), and Kim!

Great customer service. I am a local homeowner with limited experience in flooring but with a handymen disposition. The team here were able to guide me on repairing hardwood floor patches that were left open after a significant remodel where doors were moved in my house. They provided free samples, advice and guidance where I could go find the products I needed. Highly recommend the neighborhood Rafael Floors. I was originally quotes $2,000 to patch my floors, but after the guidance I received I was able to do it myself for only $27.

This was not our first time working with Rafael floors but the first time for a refinishing job. Owner Steve was very easy to work with; came to our home in a timely manner to check out the job, measure etc. Since I was concerned that refinishing might not work for the engineered floor he came back with his long-time refinisher and they determined that there would be enough wood for one time refinishing. I wouldn't have trusted the job to just anyone; a little too much sanding and you'd hit the subfloor. But given the Sander's experience, I felt confident. The price was the best of three places I compared with and the final refinishing looks lovely.
