Historic 1870's House in Unionville

Peter and his team restored this historic house floors and did an outstanding job. Org. 1" Oak as sanded, stained and protected. Plus trim and custom 12" baseboards. The job was done on-time and on-budget. We also had Peter do a custom trim around a granite fireplace. It was quoted well and done with excellence.

After Installation Service you can't beat!

After Installation Service you can’t beat! We highly recommend The Floor Shop (Wicksteed Ave – Leaside location) to install your wood flooring and thank you Peter so much for organizing the very prompt repair service to get rid of a minor squeak, many years after The Floor Shop installed our flooring.

The Floor Shop installed our kitchen and main floor hardwood flooring (Mercier Pacific 3/4" x 3 1/4" Satin Chocolate Brown) in 2008 and we have been extremely happy with the flooring ever since. Normally one might not install wood flooring in a kitchen area but with custom solid wood cheery cabinetry including a large island and open log set gas fire place, we wanted to continue the satin chocolate brown flooring into the kitchen area. We have absolutely no regrets and it looks absolutely so beautiful, warm and has proven to be very durable. We entertain a lot and we constantly receive comments about the beautiful flooring.

However, slightly over a year ago we unfortunately had a very small water leak from the fridge which we caught right away but not before it slightly wet four hard wood floor boards 1 ½ ft. in front of the fridge. At the time Peter suggested that rather than replace and glue down some new boards (we had 2 extra boxes from the initial installation… always a good idea to buy an extra box or two of the flooring) the best thing to do now, is to wait upwards to a year for it to really dry out, then we will come by and put a few nails in to stop the minor squeak.

I called Peter in April 2016, he remembered the call and within two days a service person completed the repair. Thank you so much for the very prompt repair service!

New Herringbone Hardwood Floors

We are renovating our main floor of our house and I knew that I wanted the floor to be the focal point. I chose a herringbone pattern and I knew it needed an experienced installer to install the complex pattern. I had heard from a friend that their service was great when she did her floor. She was right. The Floor Shop (Leaside) installer was amazing! His attention to detail was like watching an artist at work. You would think he was installing the floor in his own home. Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job. This floor has given my builder-box home beautiful character and warmth.

Removal of carpet and installation of premium vinyl flooring

We just had our upstairs carpeting removed and replaced with a premium vinyl flooring. We'd previously had The Floor Shop (Mississauga) install new flooring on our main level, and were so pleased with the experience that they were our obvious choice this time around too. The whole experience was so positive, from the initial selection of flooring, to getting an estimate, to the final installation just a few weeks ago. Our consultant, Debbie, was amazing to work with and made the process so easy. The installers were prompt, professional, and pleasant, and the installation work is impeccable. We'll definitely return to them for our next flooring project!

New Hardwood flooring purchase & install

From start to finish, the staff at The Floor Shop (Wicksteed Ave - Leaside location) were very knowledgeable, friendly and great to work with. From Susan who helped me & my husband pick the right flooring, to Peter who provided sound advice regarding area preparation & installation [even when we were just going to purchase the flooring and do the installation ourselves].
Once we decided to have The Floor Shop take care of the installation, Andrew very promptly was able to arrange a time for installation within a couple weeks.
The installers a fantastic job - they arrived promptly, completed the job in a reasonable time frame and left a clean work site.
Peter even follow up with us a few days later to ensure our satisfaction.
We would recommend The Floor Shop to others and will actually be using them again in the near future for a stairs install.

Condo renovation

We wanted to replace the parquet floor in our 40 year old condo with an engineered hardwood floor.
On the basis of on line customer reviews, we went to the Floor Shop. The staff provided excellent advice regarding color, material and plank size for our space. We made our selection and placed our work order.
Two days later, we were advised that there was a supply issue with our original choice. However, the Floor Shop provided a solution, substituting a higher cost material at our original contract price.
The installation proceeded on schedule. The installers were prompt and professional, completing the job on time and leaving a clean work space. We had some minor cosmetic issues that were dealt with within 24 hours. Peter, the owner, came by to inspect the finished product and to ensure that we were satisfied with the installation....and yes, we are.
I am pleased to be able to recommend this company.

hardwood on ground floors

The entire experience from visting the showroom to completion of the installation of the new hardwood was excellent. Debbie did an outstanding job of handling all the details from sample selection to contracts to arranging times for installation. Thomas did a most professional job of the installation on time and at a reasonable price.

Replacement of all existing hardwood flooring and stairways

We were dreading this renovation project because of all the upheaval it would cause. I sought a few referrals from family and friend for someone who could coordinate the process from start to finish. None of the referrals were able to handle the work from start to finish.

After reading many reviews on Home Stars I decided to approach The Floor Shop in Mississauga because it is close to my home. All the different types of flooring and their uses were explained to me. I chose the hardwood flooring and colour that I liked and setup an appointment for a quote to replace all the hardwood flooring and stairways in our home. I know from previous renovation projects in our home there are sometimes unforeseen surprises that can arise when the work begins that can cause the quoted price to rise.

Debbie came to my home and I explained to her all the flooring and stairways that we wished replaced. Debbie was up front with me and said that based on the age of our house they could find a few different scenarios when they started to rip out the flooring. Debbie prepared a quote with a price range from best to worst scenario. In the end it turned out to be the best scenario. A month before the work was scheduled to start Debbie called to inform me that the manufacturer of the flooring was offering a rebate on all flooring purchased in a three week period. Debbie gave me the option of prepaying for the flooring and getting the rebate or not. I prepaid the flooring and received the flooring rebate before the work began.

The projected took two and a half weeks to complete. Every bit of the work was well coordinated. I always knew each day who would be coming to the house and the time they would arrive. Tamas and his crew did an amazing job removing the old hardwood and parquet flooring and installing the new flooring. The crew from Euro Perfect Stairways consulted with me to make changes on the go to make the stairways stronger and safer and this was greatly appreciated.

I can not say enough about the quality of the work done.

Floors and Stairs

I have used the Floor Shop since 1995 for hardwood flooring, hardwood stairs and tile flooring. They have always done an excellent job and have now replaced all the floors/stairs in my home with the exception of two bedrooms which are carpeted. My most recent job was hardwood on the set of stairs going into the basement along with hardwood on the basement hallway. Their contractors/staff have always been punctual, knowledgeable, personable and are installing a quality product. The price is very competitive. I take great comfort in knowing that the Floor shop is there for any other flooring needs I may have in the future.
