Thanks for all the replies! Here is the summary:
1. Calebrese flooring from
2. If you are still looking for someone, I cannot recommend
Paul Calabrese highly enough. He did a fabulous job for us and gave us the best
price of the quotes we got. His number is 412-828-1160.
3. I used A Satin Finish and was very pleased. Timely; great
work; good clean-up.They were recommended to me and I have since recommended
them to many people. http://www.asatinfinish.com/
4. Jim "the sandman" Williamson is great and
reasonable. (412) 928-8553, 14124980539
5. Eight years ago we had Coit ("floorRENEW")
refinish hardwood floors in a bedroom and hallway. They did a really nice
job. The cost was $540
6. Try a-z flooring 412.877-8418
7. My fiancee and I had our floors redone last year by Mike
Jones. I think he's based in Carnegie. His number is 412-279-9356. I cannot
recommend him highly enough. I do rehabbing and have done floors myself in the
past and have hired others. Mike is in a league of his own. He's fairly
priced, does a very good job, has a good eye for detail, and doesn't hesitate
to tell you if something isn't required. He is also unbelievably clean. If
you're familiar with floor refinishing, you know that it generates incredible
amounts of dust. Mike uses industrial vacuums attached to all his sanders and
leaves no residue at all. We anticipated having to clean our house thoroughly
when he was done. We started wiping walls and doors and windows and found
nothing. We happily stopped and spend our time enjoying our new floors
8. We're having ours done, starting tomorrow, so I don't yet
have first-hand experience. But the guy who's doing it comes highly recommended
by someone who has had him work for her quite a bit. His name is Delbert and
his phone number is 724-493-4072. He's charging $2300 for three bedrooms and a
staircase plus $200 for removing the carpet.He usually prefers to work in the
late afternoons/evenings.
9. Try Leghart Brothers Inc. (412) 819-0559. They return your
phone call; they come when they say they will; do a great job; they charge a
reasonable price with no surprises
10. We have had both oak and pine floor refinished in our home by
a friend who is a contractor. He did a really wonderful job! His name is Dan
Hinchman and his email is dhinchman@verizon.net. You can also reach him at
412-337-2672. He's a great guy to work with (polite, honest, reliable)
11. Mark Connolly Contracting does a wonderful job! 412-782-5518
