We found The Hardwood Giant through an internet search. We read a few great reviews and decided to contact them (Phil). Working with him was seamless. He came to our home to provide an estimate for replacing carpeting in two bedrooms with hardwood, and replacing tile in the laundry room with LVL. He turned around an estimate the next day, and brought us samples for the LVL a couple of days later. Phil was able to schedule the work a week later, and the floors came out better than we could have hoped. Phil's team was able to match the existing hardwood floor, in plank size and stain. The LVL also looks fantastic in our laundry room. We highly recommend The Hardwood Giant!

Phil and his crew did a beautiful job of sanding and restaining our floors. In addition, we had a floor heat vent moved and the hole had to be repaired. They did such a great job that you can't tell where the hole was. We had the entire downstairs done and it all looks brand new. They did the job while we were away. We came home to a clean and beautiful home. They are trustworthy terrific guys and I recommend them 100%.

Replaced our last two rooms of carpet with red oak hardwood flooring to match existing. I can not speak highly enough about the professionalism, installation and quality of work. Everyone showed up on time and worked hard to minimize the impact of construction on our home. I have used a few companies over the years and Giant Hardwood Flooring far exceeds. I highly recommend this company!

Great service from Phil and his crew. Phil was super responsive every day, always answered all our questions, helped navigate some challenging situations and get to the best possible result. The crew did a great job installing the floors, and making required adjustments along the way. I'd gladly recommend them for any kind of hardwood flooring job, especially if you're looking for responsible team.

The Hardwood Giant did a fantastic job installing my LVP floors! They tracked down the exact floors/product I wanted, even though they were not part of the initial discussion. We ended up having a lot of issues with getting the old floors up but Phil and his team never gave up. They did everything possible (including long hours and weekend work) to make sure the job was done to our satisfaction and in a reasonable amount of time. Phil, Edwin and his partner truly demonstrated dedication to their work and commitment to their customers! Thank you!

This company and especially the owner Phil exceeded all expectations on our project. Even today I was walking through and noticing details of their repair and restoration I hadn't initially seen. The finish is flawless and I'm very glad I took the experts advice and opted for the stain we did. They finished on time and did beautiful work. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for and these guys are GOOD!

OUTSTANDING! They use high quality materials and are always on time. The installation team works like a fine tuned machine, if any problems are encountered they just don't come to you with the problem but also with solution choices for the problem. The owner or his representative is on site everyday to insure things are going well. The price is reasonable for the quality of workmanship and material used.

Hardwood Giant did an excellent job installing new bamboo flooring in our condo. They communicated and responded quickly and answered our (many) questions about the process. The installation and end result is beautiful and has really improved the overall feel of our home. Definitely recommend Phil and his team if you need this kind of work done.

I recommend this company to anyone looking to get hardwoods installed into their home. Phil was on time for all appointments, sent out our estimate in a timely manner and we were able to schedule our project within days. Phil had his crew out at our house at the agreed time and the job was completed same day just as Phil quoted. My floors are absolutely beautiful and almost an exact match to our existing hardwoods. The total cost of this project was very reasonable and cheaper than other companies quoted. I cannot say enough good things about this company!

We recently purchased and home and worked with Phil and his team to sand and stain the flooring throughout the home. They were a pleasure to work with. They were early to the appointments, thorough, and extremely professional. His input was invaluable throughout the process, and his knowledge was so helpful as we made decisions along the way. I would highly recommend for any flooring needs.

Dear Guys, Thanks for the great job. Our new maple flooring installation looks fantastic! We are anticipating many years of enjoyment in return for our investment. I will be glad to be a reference for you anytime.

Our family really enjoyed working with the owner and his team. The results of the floor speak for themselves, they look amazing. One of the most important pieces of this process is selected the correct stain color. It was great to have ideas, but the owner and his team sanded off parts of the floor and truly took their time and found the exact color we were looking for.

We ended up doing a 50/50 mix and everyone was incredibly patient while we made the huge decision and worked through the options. Refinishing your floors is a great option instead of replacing if yours floors have that ability and Hardwood Giant will make the process a great one for you!

We had water damage and had to replace our entire downstairs floor. Phil came out and gave a really competitive estimate. His team came out and were able to fully replace our floors in just 3 days including tear out. They stayed later the 3rd day so we could get it all wrapped up and get full use of our floors. I would definitely recommend Hardwood Giant.

My Wife and I recently purchased a home in Monroe, NC and needed the hardwood floors refinished. We received several quotes and decided to go with Phil even though his quote was not the lowest. He is honest, on time for appointments, does his own measurements, offers to add new moulding in places you wouldn't think, and had our quote ready the very next day. His entire crew was very pleasant, respectful, and professional. The job was completed on time and turned out fantastic! Their quality of work is worth every penny.

They recently refinished all our hardwood floors after water damage from a leaky icemaker and they did a fantastic job. They showed up on time, did a very good job and left the house spotless. They exceeded my expectations and I would recommend them highly.

Absolutely love this company! Phil was quick to respond and arrive for an estimate, when I agreed to his very fair price we set a time. He was on time (rare these days) and his crew were excellent! My floors look amazing and the work was completed within the time frame he gave me! I would use them again, actually I need to when I can chase my husband from his home office long enough! Thanks Phil, perfect job!

Phil and his team are absolutely fantastic to work with. Phil was extremely responsive and helped us with recommendations for flooring options based on our space and budget. Phil and team were always on time and did a great job of keeping us informed during every phase of the project. We are thrilled with how the new floors look and would absolutely hire Phil again. We have already recommended him to a few friends.

Phil and his team were professional, trustworthy, prompt, and did an amazing job on our hardwood floors! We interviewed 4 companies before deciding to go w/ The hardwood Giant and we are very glad we did. I will use them again when we add hardwood to the 2nd and 3rd floor. (he did our complete first floor...refinished a portion and added new woods where carpet was)

We recently had beautiful hardwood floors installed in our entire house, 2000+ square feet, by The Hardwood Giant. After much research, we decided to trust Phil and his crew with the job of moving furniture, taking up and disposing of carpet, vinyl tile and laminate flooring and installing the new oak floor, mainly because of the many positive reviews this company had.

We were not disappointed! The two-man team who took care of the entire job in under one week were professional, polite, friendly and exceptionally hard working. We were particularly impressed that Phil and his installers were always on time, from the first consultation appointment to the last day on the job. A really rare quality here in Charlotte. We are delighted with the results and are very happy to recommend this company to anyone who wants a flooring job done the way it should be.

From start to finish, the entire process went exactly as Phil predicted. Except for one important distinction: It was a thousand times better than I imagined. I never doubted him from the initial meeting, but when remodeling, it rarely goes as planned. He explained with sufficient detail to ease my mind. Wood is organic and unpredectible. His stain absorbed and resulted in an impressive deep, rich color.

We happened to be onsite during some of the work, and was blown away by the precision of the staff. For example, the guy cutting the quarter rounds made one trip to the chop saw for EACH ROOM ! I still don't understand how he did that. Contact me with any questions and I'll be happy to ease your mind.

Phil and his crew were great! Phil was able to come out right away for a quote and begin the next week! He was helpful in fitting to our budget and we could not be happier with the results! We had about 1700-1800 square feet of hard wood floors refinished (original to the 1972 house). They look brand new, everyone that sees them is blown away by the work! Phil was completely professional and called or emailed my husband at least once a day to update on the progress.

He was extremely responsive and helpful! The floors were finished right on time and Phil even through in a few extra bits of molding around our fireplace and between our kitchen and den to make sure our final result went beyond our expectations! He really knows his stuff and we felt confident we were going to get a great product when we were finished.

We had another quote that was a little cheaper, but Phil and his crew was SO worth the extra few $100. We absolutely got what we paid for! Don't look any further, Phil and his crew at Hardwood Giant will NOT disappoint!
Molly Moeller
Phil and his team installed and finished approx 900 square feet of gorgeous hardwood flooring in our home two weeks ago. Owner was extremely professional and quick to communicate. Estimate and final cost were extremely competitive and fair. His team was a dream. We've done a lot of remodeling and this is the best team we've encountered. Quiet, polite, clean, kind to my kids and dog, patient with questions, timely, and industrious.

Work finished on schedule and floors are beyond beautiful. Little touches like reducers and quarter round are lovely. We couldn't be happier and are planning to have them back to put additional flooring in this spring.
Tony DiLiegro
These guys did an unreal job at my home in Waxhaw. Pros from start to finish. Do yourself a favor and give Phil a call, you won't regret it!
Sara Davis
After meeting with several companies, we felt confident choosing The Hardwood Giant Co. for our hardwood installation. Phillip was easy to work with and very professional. He was prompt to respond to emails and always arrived on time. We were impressed with the selection of quality laminate flooring to choose from which held an unbeatable price. Each step of the process was explained to us and we truly felt that our best interest was being met. Installation for our entire downstairs only took two days and the team did a great job of cleaning up before they left.

We absolutely love the way our floors turned out! If you are looking for a friendly, reliable and dependable company to do your job, give them a call. We will be recommending The Hardwood Giant Co. to all our friends and family!
