“I highly recommend them they were professional, on time, and friendly”

“I would like to recognize the installers and inspectors for the exceptional service.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Emperial. Everyone we met was professional, polite and knowledgeable. It was a team and they worked together beautifully.”

“It was a very easy selection decision after meeting Ricky, the team was on time and respectful. I would recommend!”

“My floors look fabulous!”

“Beautifully matched flooring.”

“Great selection & customer service, both for hardwoods on our main floor & vinyl in our basement. Ricky was an excellent advisor, bringing samples to our house on multiple visits as we made our decisions. The installation team was also excellent. I do wish they?d take back & credit unopened boxes of materials, since it is their staff who determines the quantity that is needed.”

“We were very pleased with the timely installation and with their workmanship. The floors are beautiful. I would highly recommend them.”

“Everything was great. The communication, value, and quality were great.”

“I would like to recognize the whole crew for their exceptional service. Ricky was the lead of the project, He did a great job of communicating with me and made sure we were happy about everything.”

“Emperial Hardwood Floors actually did an excellent job overall. There were few minor details that were missed. Other than that, it was almost perfect.”

“I have already recommended them to a friend.”

“They met or exceeded my expectations as they did a great job with the color matching between the room with existing floors. Also, with the rooms where they added new hardwoods.”

“I cannot remember their names since it has been a while, but they did a great job.”

“I would like to recognize Ricky and George for their exceptional service!”

“I was satisfied in all areas.”

“I would like to recognize Ricky Core for his exceptional service.”

“Absolutely”

“prompt, courteous and good job”

“The quality of wood floor refinishing and installation of wood on steps to a landing in my home were outstanding. Two other reputable companies told me they couldn?t install the wood on the steps, but it was a non-issue to Emperial. Excellent and honest customer service too. Highly recommend.”

“I would like to recognize all of them. They were all excellent.”

“Francisco and his craftmanship!”

“They did a great job.”

“My floors look wonderful. The job foreman was humble, professional and courteous.”

“Francisco did a great job both times!!”

“Ricky is clearly the Pro from Dover, and Francisco and Carlos did very nice work. My only complaint is with how easily the urethane floor coating scratches. We finished the 50% / 50% red and white oak floor with a "Heritage Brown" finish and it is absolutely gorgeous, but the clear coat shows every tiny scratch. Scooting a lightly filled cardboard box across the floor leaves very noticeable scratches. The nylon tacks on the bottom of chair legs, designed to prevent scratching, leave bright scratches. It's very fragile, and frankly a disappointment.”

“The owner and project manager”

“Both Ricky and Nelson did a great job! They were also extremely helpful 6 months after installation when I had some subsequent questions. I would gladly recommend the Emperial Flooring team!”

“Ricky was the best of course and foreman and work crew quite knowledgeable and efficient.”

“Blending new wood floors with old wood floors.”

“The whole crew that was involved”

“Can?t say enough about the great service from Emperial Floors. They kept their word every step of the way. Our projects were completed on time, and the crew was friendly, efficient and neat throughout the job. I also appreciated the quality product that was offered: we now have beautiful hardwood floors that will be easy to maintain.”

“The crew that came out to my house worked very well together on my project.”

“They were great from start to finish. They completed the project in a timely manner and finished when they said they would. The owner was great to work with as well.”

“They all did a good job.”

“I only worked Ricky.”

“I would like to recognize Ricky. He is a great contact there.”
