New Hardwood Floor

Hi C.!
Congratulations on your pregnancy!
I noticed you live in Glenview...I live in Glencoe..;)
I used Lewis Carpet on Skokie BLVD for my floors, but they ended up being rude
in the end, so I would not recommend them...though they have a great selection and
are very convenient...

I am a labor and delivery RN at Evanston. Another RN I work with, her husband is an excellent, he does alot of Dr. houses, etc...but they just left for spring break.
There is one other person I know that I have heard in our dep't whose husband
does really nice hardwood floors. (I learned this when Lewis Carpet screwed up ours).

Pregnancy-related...if there is anything that I can do for you, please let me know.. Check out Baby Feat.
I have a great network I can recommend to you.

Hope you are feeling well today, and hooray for you and your family!!

I used Lucciano's Hard Wood Floors. He did a great job and was very reasonable. He doesn't advertise (guess he doesn't have to) and I got his number off of his truck. 773/510-0630.

Tell him D. sent you :-)

I have a great handyman. He can definitely tile your bathroom and I imagine he can do a wood floor. He is a very good carpenter. His name is Carlos Molina and his number is ###-###-####

Go to www.healthyhome.com they have non-toxic options for wood floors, tiles and even offer toxic-free nursery paint. I wish I knew about it before mine was born!

When I've needed a contractor for painting, I call the paint store and have them give me the names of three contractors they recommend. You could do the same with a tile place and somewhere that does wood flooring - maybe not Home Depot, but somewhere more specialized. You could also check out Angieslist.com I think you need to pay for a membership, but it's worth it to get honest recommendations (or non-recommendations!)

Congratulations on your baby!

I used A to Z Flooring. I saw they are listed on this site too, with very good reviews! Anyway, they've done a great job in my house: remodelling, installing new cherry, and a professional design. The name of the owner is Gabriel, and his phone # ###-###-####. He's very polite and the price is very good. He will offer you a free estimate. I will place a review for them on this site too, because they deserve it!

Hello C. .We used a guy named Paul. He did a great job and is reasonably priced. His number is ###-###-####.
Good lack,I..

I don't have any names, but several of the other moms in my mother's group say that the website Angie's List is the only way to go for finding workmen. I think there's a nominal fee for it, but apparently the info is more than worth it.

Good luck and congratulations on your baby!

C.-I have a friend, Holly, who's husband, John, has an interior design degree from Columbia and has been in business for 20 years. His work is phenomenal and is reasonably priced. He has great references and will do whatever you need him too. He does commercial and residential. Her number is ###-###-####.

Hi C.! We got new hardwood floors before our little guy was born too. We used Signature Flooring in Lake Zurich and are very happy with our Mirage solid 3/4" prefinished hardwood floors and their installation of the floors. They have other products too of course. Prefinished eliminates a lot of the dust and fumes from the finishing process. Best wishes.

I recommend A Quality Floors in Lincolnwood - not too far from you. They are posted on the business review portion of the site.

I hope you're enjoying an uneventfully blissful pregnancy.

When they rip up your floors do not be home or breathe in. Open windows etc, there is always harmful polutants under floors and that could hurt the baby or you

Hi C.,
I know a very nice contractor, and they are doing a good job.
His name is Joe and his phone number is ###-###-#### .
Hope, this is going to help you. Enjoy your pregnancy :))

Have a nice day!

Nino Macias is great for indoor remodeling and outdoor. He's not a "decorator" so he soesn't charge like they do. He's insured and you can be sure to be having a professional job done. He's a family man and loves children and pets so no worries. 1-###-###-####.
