Eric, Andy, and his team mate provided an excellent service for my condo unit. Within only a day the former flooring was removed, and the brand new flooring was properly installed. Punctual, fast, efficient, clean, and stress-free!

Eric and his team are great. We wanted to get our flooring asap before selling our condo and he was able to squeeze us in pretty quickly. I received two other quotes from Lowes and Rona for almost double the cost compared to what Downtown Flooring offered and Downtown Flooring's product quality was much better! Will definitely be working with them again.
