  I am restoring an 1880's farm house in central Texas, now turning to refinishing the original heart pine floor. After finding Pete's Hardwood Flooring via an internet search and reading through their very detailed and helpful website, I still had questions specific to my flooring (soft vs hardwood). Pete's offers a phone consulting service for a very reasonable fee, so I decided to try it best value for my $ in a long time. Not only was Randy experienced, but he truly listened to my challenges and provided outstanding advice. He also shared valuable tips regarding sanding techniques that proved immensely helpful. He also expressed his willingness to help guide me on the right finish options once I get to that stage.
  In summary, the consulting service exceeded my expectations and value can't be beat I just wish this awesome Minnesota business was a bit closer to my "neck of the woods ".

  They saved my project, I would have made so many bad decisions and mistakes without their advice. The value of their help is worth way more than what you’ll end up paying! My floors turned out great, these guys really are the best.

  Super generous with their knowledge. Though I've never been to the store, the vast resources (and products) available on the Pete's website were all that my wife and I needed to refinish our own wood floors here in Pittsburgh. Makes me almost wish we lived in the Twin Cities. Thank you!

  After having read blog after blog of people refinishing old floors in an afternoon, it took me a while to accept the advice Pete's was giving me that it would likely take two people a long weekend to sand 300 square feet of 100 year old maple. However, once I came to terms with this I was able to, with the help of a friend, transform my floors from disgusting to beautiful for under a thousand dollars! This was the first thing in my experience renovating a home that actually went better than expected, and it's all thanks to Pete's, especially the supremely helpful and knowledgeable "hardwood floor mom" Kadee. She was available to answer questions promptly over text, and even spent some time on the phone over the holiday weekend helping me overcome issues I didn't expect (even though I thought my floor was very level, there were dozens of low spots which caused problems).
  
  I couldn't be happier with the final product! And I have so much pride knowing that I did it myself. If I had rented a drum sander from someone else, I wouldn't have had the support to overcome the problems I faced, I wouldn't have had the knowledge and experience to use the machine without leaving marks, I would have spent just as much time, probably more, for a floor with all kinds of sander marks, sealer and topcoat lap marks, and I would have a hard time living with that floor for the next decade. Now, I'm proud to show off my floor to friends, and challenge them to find any sanding or lap marks (there aren't any!)

  We were nervous about doing our wood floors ourselves and after receiving a few quotes from contractors that made our heads spin we decided we had to do it ourselves. Then I found Pete’s and all went well from then on. It truly was a great experience! Kadee is one of a kind a master at all things wood floors she was instrumental in making us feel comfortable and confident. Really love how the floors turned out. The pet stains we had actually sanded out after some extra attention with the 36 grit :) Thanks Pete’s!!
