Top 5 hardwood flooring companies

Companies that sent us a hardwood price come first, then the ones we have not got a price from yet. Both are ordered by our hardwood score: the price, reviews about this kind of work, what the company offers and trust. Companies that only list it on their site are below the ranking, without places. Each row shows the same facts in the same order, including the gaps.

How to read the cards: Hardwood score = Price /35 (our quote request for hardwood) + Reviews /30 (reviews about hardwood work) + Offer /20 + Trust /15. The number is the place on this page; the full profile has the overall score.
