In short

Greg Blehm is the second generation to run it: his father started the business in the 1980s and Greg bought it from him eight years ago. He quotes the job and he is on the job. Licensed and bonded, employees on the books, a one year labor warranty in writing, and a free in-home estimate usually within two or three days of your call.

Why people call me

You are hiring the person who does the work

My dad started this in the 1980s and ran it for over thirty years. I grew up in it, bought it from him when he could not do the work any more, and I have had it for eight years.

01
One person, start to finishNo account manager, no sales layer, no third-party installer. If something needs deciding on your floor, you are deciding it with the person holding the sander.
02
Licensed and bondedL&I, employees on the books, nothing under the table. I lose bids to people quoting cash prices I cannot touch, and my customers tell me so.
Worth checking

The things a homeowner should ask any contractor

None of these are awards. Every one is a fact you can verify before you hire anybody, including me.

One year on labor

Written into the contract, on top of the manufacturer warranty on your product.

Everything signed

A four to five page contract, and every stain color approved in writing before it goes down.

Free in-home estimate

Usually within two or three days of your call, measured and quoted in writing.

Straight answers
I will tell you when refinishing beats replacing, and when LVP is the smarter buy even though I make less on it.

Greg BlehmOwner, second generation

Most flooring companies quote what they would rather sell you. I would rather lose the upsell than have you find out later that I knew.

Builders

If you build custom homes

Some of my best customers are builders, and a few of them have not used anybody else in years.

For GCs

I do both the installation and the refinishing on a custom build, which is one sub instead of two and one person accountable for how the floor turns out. I hold the schedule I gave you and I carry the paperwork a licensed GC actually needs from a sub: L&I, insurance, signed contracts, and a written change order any time the scope moves. More on working with builders.

“We had our main floor wood refinished and second floor and stairs changed from carpet to hardwood. We are thrilled with the outcome. They were timely, responsive and professional. Price was fair too. We went on vacation for 3 weeks and Greg kept us updated throughout with pics.”

“Greg is extremely knowledgeable and communicative and you will see his dedication in his and his team's craft. I wanted a light color to replace the previous very dark stain, Greg made sure to set expectations at the same time as letting me see various stain options to make sure I loved the final color.”

“Greg was very communicative and transparent. He answered all of our questions about product, procedures and timelines. He was easy going and great to work with. Final product was an outstanding refinishing of our decades old hardwood flooring.”
