We had the pleasure of working on this brand-new Spanish style construction that was built from the ground up. The 4000 sq/ft project was located in the Pacific Palisades, one of Los Angeles' most desirable neighborhoods. We supplied, installed and finished the floors onsite using a custom blend of Rubio Monocoat hardwax oil colors.

CMC Hardwood floors came recommended by a local real estate agent that worked with me on the purchase of my home. I trusted her rec and she was right! Marcos and CMC Hardwood Floors really did an incredible job with the restoration of our 90-year old floors! We are so impressed and very happy! In addition to the end result, Marcos was incredibly responsive from our initial connection to the weeks leading up to the work and throughout the refinishing process -- and on-time during work days. I really liked the online system for reviewing the contract and communicating with Marcos. At our consult

I contacted a few businesses on their websites when we were looking to refinish our hardwood floors and Marcos responded promptly. He came out the next day to give us an estimate. His team did the work promptly and we appreciated their dustless system.
He explained the process very well and even gave us tips on how to take care of the wood floors. Our floors look great!

We highly recommend CMC Hardwood Floors. The owner, Marcos, is very professional and knowledgeable. He patiently explained to us in detail the four-day process needed to refinish our floors, as well as the options for color and finish. Marcos was always available to answer any questions we may have had. He was on site every day and he and his crew completed the project on time. They were meticulous in their work and the dust-free sanding process was amazing - not one spec of dust anywhere. Thank you for our beautiful floors!

We had 6 floor installers give us a quotes to install new 7" engineered wood flooring before we found Marcos. The installation costs ranged considerably from the lowest to the highest. The methods also ranged. One guy planned to use nails (no glue) and one guy specifically recommended glue only (no nails).

From the moment I met Marcos's, I knew he was the one I wanted to hire. He is kind of quiet but confident in his craft and super polite. He doesn't try to sell himself. He just looks around, measures and discusses options. When I received his quote a day later, I was sold. While

Marcos educated us on all available options for hardwood refinishing; something no one else we'd met with had done. He offered several options, each with its own benefit. In the end we knew exactly what we were getting and why. He was always on time, and the house looked clean and neat at every stage of the refinishing process. We were so impressed with the improvement he was able to make to our floors that we had the stairs done as well. Marcos even took the time to educate us on mistakes people make when cleaning and maintaining their floors and provided us with the appropriate products for our

I had my floor done when I bought my house in 2014 by Marco. My wife and I couldn’t be more happier with the result back then. Fast forward, we decided to renovate our kitchen to create an open concept in 2021. Additions of same types of wood floor needed to be added. The new floor along with old were installed, stained, and sanded initially by another company; it was a disaster! The stained used by the other company was blotchy, parts of the floor was not stained at all. In addition, sanding work was subpar and horrible. I called Marco; although very busy, he was able to squeeze me in. He came

Marcos did a fabulous job refinishing our hardwood floors in our Studio City home. He is very professional both in his contract terms which he took the time to review with me. He also thoroughly explained his refinishing process and the stain-color options before beginning and I appreciated his explanation. He's clearly very experienced at hardwood floor refinishing and after-care. He checked in with me with photos so I can see the progress over the 4-day job and the beautiful end result. Equally important, Marcos' pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend CMC Hardwood Floors and would definitely

Marcos was a key player in helping us return a mid century modern house to a inviting home that we could enjoy with our family. He was recommended to us by the wood floor manufacturer back East and we are so glad we listened. Reliable and expert installation . Gave us finishing options to compare , and did a l1000sf job in one room that came off flawlessly. We did have some settling problems with the slab / heat /cold - Marcos came back the next season and repaired the problems under the original contract. Loved working with him and will always recommend

This is a long overdue review for our flooring project back in December 2019... My experience with CMC Hardwood Floors has been more than pleasant from the beginning to the end. I was looking to re-sand our hardwood floors, and after talking with many contractors, Marcos was the most professional and honest from the beginning who gave me the approximate quote right at front. He knew exactly what had to be done to our floors when I showed him a few pictures of floors that I liked. I am more than happy that I asked Marcos to do our project! The end product was great and the flooring is my favorite

We had an impossible task: refinish the 100-year-old red oak floors throughout our house AND install new red oak in the kitchen to match seamlessly. We didn't think it could be done after multiple people told us it would never look right, particularly because it's an open floor plan. But when we met Marcos, he gave us the confidence to move forward. He was one of four contractors we met with, and while he wasn't the cheapest, we were impressed with his attention to detail and craftsmanship. We knew he was the only one we'd trust with the job.

Now we are SO happy with the results

Marcos of CMC Hardwood Floors is an absolute professional in every way. He restored our wood floors to our complete satisfaction and, in fact, the floors look even better than we imagined they could. Marcos is on time, honest, fairly priced (he may charge a little more than average because he uses the industry's best equipment from what we could tell...DUSTLESS!) and does absolutely stunning work. It was a pleasure to work with him and we will work with him again. This is a recommendation I'm 100% confident in giving.

A nightmare turned into relief when I met Marcos and he took ownership of my floors previously refinished by an incompetent contractor. My Brazilian cherry wood flooring was refinished by Marcos and his team. They were detail oriented considering the hard to reach places in my home, under the kitchen island and elevated cabinets. He helped select the oil and finish, with actual samples placed on the floor to help me decide. Marcos knows floors, and has an excellent team. They showed up everyday on time and the project was completed timely. Thank you for showing me the beauty in my floors !

Marcos is truly a craftsman of his trade. He laced new oak into our kitchen from our existing floors and refinished them throughout - his work ended up beautifully transforming our space and being one of the parts that I love the most about our remodel.

Initial bid to completion took 3 long months, many, many trips to my home and a multitude of questions from me. Marcos approached our project with knowledge and care, even when it meant multiple phases and an elongated schedule. He was also quick to point out any challenges he faced and offered up expert solutions - consulting me before making

Marcos and his crew did an outstanding job refinishing my hardwood floors. After 16 years and 6 dogs and a kitchen remodel they were looking pretty sorry. They sanded everything down, replaced the quarter round and refinished and sealed them to perfection. I couldn't be more thrilled!!

We recently bought a 75 year old house that needed a lot of help. As such, we hired numerous trades... plumbers, electricians, painters, you name it. Among them, Marcos and CMC Hardwood Floors was, by far, the best group we worked with because of their quality, efficiency, trustworthiness and professionalism. Marcos did exactly what he said he was going to do, when he said he was going to do it. He was also able to identify, during the estimate phase, any potential issues that would increase costs/time. And finally, and most importantly, the work itself was of the highest quality. Marcos and his

Marcos and his guys are great. My only complaint is that they're always booked! I have done 4 jobs with this company and they were great every time, eliciting not even a grumble from me on any of the jobs.

Great work, nice people, trustworthy, fair, and reliable.

Marcos and his crew did an excellent job laying hardwood flooring in our Condo. They always arrived on time with everything they needed. Marcos was very easy to work with and pricing was fair. You can work with him to customize pricing according to exactly what you want him to do, in order to save yourself some $$.

I would recommend CMC flooring if you are considering hardwood flooring in your Condo. There are many challenges (soundproofing, CC&R's, construction, working times, etc..) when flooring a condo, so do your homework and I would say don't hesitate to use CMC flooring to

Marcos and his team did a great job. He is a reliable, trustworthy human being and I highly recommend him.

A water leak warped the hardwood floors in my kitchen, dining area, and living room. Marcos' got my attention when he urged me use a specialist in water damage, to correct any mold problem. I appreciated that he was willing to let go of the job to make sure it was done right. So I had the floors and cabinets tested and determined there was no mold problem. But I decided that I wanted Marcos to do the work.

Marcos removed the damaged portion of the flooring to allow the underlying plywood
