Willowbrook Stained Red Oak Flooring:
THE CLIENT: Tina Luttrell – Willowbrook, Illinois
THE JOB: Tina and her husband had just moved from Florida to Naperville and purchased a town home. It had beautiful red oak installed… but the finish left a little bit to be desired as it was quite worn out. There was also a 4ft half wall dividing the dining from the living room which needed to be removed. Once it was, there was a large void in the floor. Instead of lacing in new oak over a big area, Tina liked the idea of installing a walnut border to visually divide the dining area from the living area. Not only does it look great… it saved a considerable amount of money for them as well.

A friend, at work, recommended Tadas Wood Flooring, when we decided to renovate a recently purchased older home. The existing floors looked like pine stained with a very light blonde, almost yellow finish. My husband, at first, wanted them torn out and replaced. When we found out how expensive it was to replace wood floors, we entertained the idea of refinishing. My husband wasn’t expecting much and I was hopeful that the end finish would at least be nicer than the existing floors.
We found Tadas to be very professional... he was very meticulous and has a true passion for what he does. We highly recommend Tadas Wood Flooring.
Upon our first meeting with Tadas, we found him to be very professional in the way he conducted his business. After speaking with him, I knew that he was very meticulous about his work. He has a true passion for what he does. There was no doubt in my mind that he was the right person for the job.
As we proceeded with the job, I was pleasantly surprised with the manner in which he always returned my phone calls and emails, as well as he continued to stay on schedule. When it came to picking out stain, Tadas completely understood the look and color I was hoping to achieve. A few times, he brought back samples to show me and came up with my ideal color of stain.
As the refinishing process began, I appreciated the fact that Tadas was willing and flexible with our construction schedule as we had other disciplines of workmen, coming in and out of the house while the refinishing was taking place.
In the end, my husband and I loved the wood floor. It looks brand new. We were surprised of how much wood grain shows and “pops” out compared to the old floor. The color, look and feel greatly surpassed our expectations.
We highly recommend Tadas Wood Flooring to all our family, friends and co-workers.
Tadas, we can’t thank you enough for giving our home a new, warm and impressive feeling as soon as we walk through the front door. We greatly appreciate the fantastic job.”
Sincerely,
Tina Luttrell | Willowbrook, Illinois
Berwyn, Illinois Stained Red Oak Floor:
THE CLIENT: Rosemary – Berwyn, Illinois
THE JOB: Rosemary has a beautiful historic home that was built in 1918. But after many years of use the 90+ year old red oak floors needed some sprucing up. There where two areas that needed to be repaired and we sourced old growth red oak to match the original flooring. Once the repairs were finished the floor was sanded, stained and refinished with a high end finish system, bringing it back to life and in better than original condition. Rosemary should get many, many years of use out of her beautiful new/old floors.

Tadas provided a thorough and very professional estimate, describing all my options. The written estimate provided specific information about the products he uses, which are all high quality.
He made the repairs, sanded, and stained the first day. The second day he applied the base finish and one top coat. The third day he applied the second top coat. The final day he returned to install primed shoe moulding, which I painted to match my woodwork.
Rosemary (Last name asked to be withheld) | Berwyn, IllinoisI will hire him to do the rest of my maple floors. Wonderful experience - one of the best contractors I have ever used.
Everything went very well and he did exactly what he said he would do. They were very neat and clean. They offer a premium "no dust" cleaning system (at an added cost) but since I was doing other renovations I opted for the standard cleanup. There was very little dust left behind and it was easy to clean afterward.
I will hire him to do the rest of my maple floors. Wonderful experience - one of the best contractors I have ever used. I got lots of compliments over Thanksgiving!

Glen Ellyn, Illinois Grooved Hardwood Floor:
THE CLIENT: John and Mary Nurse – Glen Ellyn, Illinois
THE JOB: John and Mary had an old, aged and yellowed kitchen hallway and bathroom floor that didn't match their newly installed pre-finished floors installed in all the other rooms in their home. We were asked to come in and see what we could do to restore them before the desicion to rip them out was made. As you can see in the pictures below, we were able to bring them up to better than new condition so they matched the rest of the floors. It wasn't much fun dealing with all of the big grooves but they turned out great in the end.

Dear Tadas,
Thank you for the excellent job you and your staff did on restoring our kitchen floor. We first learned about you from your website and were impressed by all the information we could gather before our initial phone call to your business. There was no pressure, just solid answers to basic inquiries. It helped “educate” us on what to expect if we were to work with you.
Your work exceeded our expectations and we would definitely recommend you to friends and family.
We asked you to match an old, worn kitchen floor with an existing newer wood floor. Before working with you, we were not sure if the job could be accomplished without ripping out the entire kitchen floor and had put this project off for several years! The stain colors were different, the wood quality was different, the plank widths were different... plus the kitchen flooring had grooves!
You professionally and confidently explained the different options available to us and had a clear understanding of what the roject entailed.
You and your hardworking and efficient staff matched the stain, smoothed the worn patches, and created a floor that blended in well with the rest. Your work exceeded our expectations and we would definitely recommend you to friends and family.
Sincerely,
John and Mary Nurse | Glen Ellyn, Illinois

When my wife and I were remodeling our kitchen, we seriously considered ripping the old floors out and installing new hardwood. There were scratches and imperfections everywhere from furniture being moved and from the pets of previous owners. Ultimately, we decided to save a little money and have the floors refinished. It was the best decision we could have made.
Robert Wostratzky | Naperville, IllinoisWe are extremely happy with the work that was done! – It was the best decision we could have made.
After four days of refinishing work, our floor looked brand new. All of the marks from the previous flooring were completely eliminated. Our friends and family were shocked to hear that our flooring had been refinished. Tadas also took the time to create a beautiful stain that matched our new cabinets with the existing trim that was already in place.
We are extremely happy with the work that was done!
