Great Lakes Carpet and Flooring, Wildwood. Excellent prices, easy to deal with, great installers. Had vinyl plank gloorind installed in three rooms that had carpeting. Took 2 1/2 days. All furniture removed and then replaced. Would highly recommend them.

We also used Floor Masters in Wildwood for outdoor tile work recently and were very pleased with the quality of work.

East Coast Flooring. Very good results. Very good installers.

Roberto’s will do the job properly.
 
We had vinyl and original 12x12 porcelain tile removed by Roberto’s and large format porcelain installed throughout the house. They moved the furniture and appliances as needed. All base boards were removed and replaced with new 5” baseboards. Removing the old 3” baseboards always leaves marks, so the 5” covers all that up and is a nice upgrade. Quarter round molding next to the old molding is a short-cut.

The process of removing the old porcelain tile in the foyer, kitchen and baths (if you have it) is amazingly noisy and dusty! We moved out for about five days. They will tell you that you can stay, but it would be rough going.

After they were done, Roberto’s sent in a cleaning crew to clean up all the dust. I can say that it is an awesome update. Porcelain or ceramic tile is what a house should have in Florida. I think flooring companies push vinyl flooring because there is more profit in it. Also, they do not need the skilled labor for vinyl. Tile is not cold nor is it hard on one’s feet.

Robertos number one in my book. Had tile installed throughout the house. I chose to replace the baseboards with a 6” base. They offer remove and reinstall but the price wasn’t that much for new so went that route. They were there when they said they would be and were done when they said they would be. A supervisor came by everyday checking on the 2 man crew and it was a 5 day job.

We were very happy with Roberto's. They did our Master bath tile. They also did 2 of our friends entire house in porcelain tile. Robertos moved the furniture with no problems. Our friends they removed their base boards and replaced with new.
Everyone was very happy with the work Roberto’s did.

Roberto’s. I used them for Luxury Vinyl Planking in two houses. I was very satisfied both times. They remove the molding and either reuse it or install new molding that is higher and fancier. I’d say go with the new molding. It looks great. The trim painting is perfect. In one case I went with their top of the line product. In the other, I got one that was a couple thousand less. I recommend getting the best, textured product. This will cost more than buying it at Lowe’s. One house, 1100 square feet, this cost me $14,000. The other, 1600 square feet, I paid $11,000, but accidentally used a lesser product and then didn’t replace the molding.

We highly recommend. We liked them so much we used them on 2nd home. They moved furniture, removed baseboards and installed transitions. They removed old ceramic tile.

Including existing tile removal, how long did it take and what was the final price per square foot?

Another vote for Floormaster.
 
Floormaster did our whole house including large master
shower. Very clean, courteous,
& efficient.

Royal Palm Flooring
 
After getting quotes from Robertos and Floormasters, we chose Royal Palm Flooring in Summerfield. They had the best prices and service for the hardwood floors we wanted. Floormasters misquoted a product and Robertos charged a lot for baseboards. Royal Palm Flooring is associated with Ruth Dyer, the decorator who writes a weekly decorating column in The Villages Daily Sun. Highly recommend!

I chose Roberto's Flooring, located off of 301, to complete the flooring project for my entire 2338 sq feet home. Initially, I had ordered porcelain tile from Home Depot, but upon completion of the installation, we noticed issues such as uneven lines and high and low edges.

To rectify the situation, Roberto's Flooring took responsibility for the problem and promptly removed all the tile. They reordered new tile at their own expense and began the installation process for a second time. However, during this second attempt, it was discovered that the tile from Daltile (the original supplier) was defective. In coordination, both Roberto's Flooring and I received refunds from Home Depot for both the tile and Daltile products.

Subsequently, we decided to purchase new tile from Floor & Decor. Due to a delay in the tile delivery from Orlando, Roberto's Flooring went above and beyond by personally picking up the tile for me. They then flawlessly installed the tile throughout my entire home, including the addition of new 5.25 baseboards. Additionally, they took care of repainting any damaged molding or walls and even arranged for a cleaning crew to thoroughly clean the entire home.

Having been in the construction industry for many years, I can confidently say that Roberto's Flooring stands out as a company that truly values the quality of their work. Their commitment to ensuring customer satisfaction and their willingness to go the extra mile make them exceptional in their field.

My experience with The Floor Shoppe on Rt. 301 was distinctly bad.
