Syd Flooring refinished floors that has been done about one year ago by another local company (who actually threatened to sue me if I did not remove my review of them Trusted pro is aware). Syd Flooring corrected the rough, uneven sanding job that had been previously done and the application of semi-gloss product was even and very well done. Additionally, as they use 98% dust free machines and have a state of the art equipment. They are meticulous and take pride in the work they do. One can expect a great finished product, which it was, and without having to call an extreme cleaning company to wash walls, windows and so on. We now have beautiful floors, have received many compliments from friends and family and had no qualms about referring Syd Flooring to those that asked (three so far)
I would not hesitate to recommend them. They are honest, hardworking and take pride in their work which is difficult to find today, and at a very fair price! We just wished we had found them last year.
Hardwood floors were in need of care. Even after cleaning them, they looked dirty from the wear and tear.
Syd’s Flooring promised 98% dust free and they weren’t kidding. No tapping or covering necessary. Estimate was in the ballpark of the other two companies I invited to quote.
After sanding and three coats of finish, floors are now AMAZING! I think maybe better than new, they are that awesome.
Owner and crew are very professional and easy to deal with. I HIGHLY recommend them.
After a couple of disappointing encounters with flooring contractors, we contacted Syd in regards to refinishing our existing hardwood and installation of additional hardwood in our kitchen.
At his first visit, Syd spent approx. 90 minutes educating us and describing the refinishing process. We learned a lot, and were very impressed with the time spent ensuring we were comfortable.
Syd and Luc arrived when they said they would each day. Friendly, conscientious, and again ensuring that we were happy with every step of the process. The results of the refinishing and installation are beautiful. We are extremely happy with our floors. Syd and Luc are invested in achieving the best results possible.
We would not hesitate to recommend Syd's Flooring to friends and family, and have!
We were/are very Happy with the work from Syd's flooring. Loved the dust free sanding and the new stain looks great. Syd and Luc did a fantastic job-they are very professional and easy to deal with. I would highly recommend them.
I'm really happy with the outcome of my finished floors. Reliability and quality workmanship is what we look for, and that is what we got. Our experience was stress free, Syd explained everything and always kept in communication. The best was absence of mess and dust in my house.
SO happy with our experience from Syd's Flooring! Syd takes obvious pride in his business using top quality products and equipment (no dust!). Syd and Luc worked very hard to make our 60 year old floors look amazing. They were very friendly and professional...a pleasure to have working in our home. Syd keeps on top of all of the advances in floor refinishing, and truly took as much care on our floors as if it were his own home. The colour-match of old flooring to new flooring was perfect.
I wish we could give more than 5 stars...Syd goes over and above to make sure his customers are happy!!
The hardwood flooring in the living/dining room in my condo was badly scratched by the previous owners who owned a dog. I did a google search and found Syd’s Flooring. The attraction to this company was that they advertised 98% dustless sanding. I must admit that I was very skeptical about this. I requested an estimate to have the floor refinished and was immediately impressed by Syd and his professional approach to explaining how he would refinish the floor…and yes it would be 98% dustless.
After the 3 day process of sanding, staining and applying the finishing coat I was truly amazed with the finished product. Syd’s Flooring did an incredible job refinishing the floor and matching the stair railing.
The 98% dustless sanding really was 98% dust free and I was surprised at how little dust was produced. When they were done, the remaining dust was that of not having dusted the furniture for a couple of weeks. Clean up was easy, and I was not left with any stain on the quarter round and baseboards.
They were knowledgeable, clean, careful, polite and punctual.
Thanks Syd and staff for a job well done! You are to be commended for your skill, attention to detail and professionalism.
Our floor was professionally installed over 22 years ago and after 3 kids and 5 dogs tracking over the floor for that period of time I wasn’t sure that the floor would ever look good again. I got quotes and invited several service providers to come and see the floor before they took on the job. I got four quotes, Sydney was the only one to actually take the time to come and see the floor and discuss the refinishing requirements. The floor had several areas with deep scratches, water damage, and finish completely worn off. His price was very competitive and certainly superior in terms of the work that was going to be provided and the products being used. The end result was absolutely perfect!
Thanks Sydney & Luc for doing such a great job, especially appreciated was the follow-up after the work was done to ensure that we were completely satisfied with the work. Syd also provided cleaning & maintenance instructions on how to keep the floor looking its best!
In short: A Fair price – Great workmanship!

Services we offer:
Refinishing - 98% dust free sanding. With a professional dust containment system we are able to eliminate harmful dust that would normally be airborn throughout the house during sanding. With this process we are able to remove cupping, deep scratches, dents, and other damage. You can also change the colour of the floor with over 80 selections of stain colour. Refinishing requires sanding the floor to remove all the varnish and stain down to the bare wood to achieve a flat and even surface. We offer both oil and waterbased products when refinishing your hardwood floor in either a satin or semigloss finish.
Refresh - NOT FOR PREFINISHED FLOORING. 99% dust free. This process doesn't require sanding down to bare wood and is used when your on-site hardwood floor is still in good condition but the varnish has dulled down. It also removes minor surface scratches. This requires prepping the floor with a special solution that removes dirt, oil, and any other contaminants that may interfere with varnish application then scuffing the top layer of varnish using a specific abrasive disc to assure proper adhesion of the new top coat and finally 1 application of high traffic aluminum oxide waterbased varnish.
Stairs - We can refinish your existing stair treads. We also do installation of new stairs.
Installation - We only install solid hardwood flooring and engineered hardwood.
