            The owner of this company refuses to comply to a contract that includes hardwood flooring and matching thresholds in South Ottawa Ontario. Four thresholds are badly done and we have photos to compare with normal doorway thresholds. The four thresholds go beyond the doorway and this is not the norm. We emailed the contractor numerous times explaining they should be modified/repaired, including sending photos on how they should look. The owner refuses to fix them, and actually wants to remove them (imagine the damage to the hardwood if done). He has threatened a lien on our house, has lied many times about non-existant discussions with my brother and Advantage Flooring's sub-contractor, and has lied about monies not received and about the balance owing, and has acted unprofessionally. He also readjusted the contract that was agreed on in November 2023 ($11,000 plus Tax), and sent a new one December 20th, 2023 quoting $12,000 plus tax. I have paid $11,500, and he claims I still owe him $5,560? We now fear his credibility and have numerous emails and texts to prove this. In addition, his subcontractor is trying to collect funds from me because the contractor has not paid him. Just like the Contractor, the subcontractor also has threatened that his lawyer will contact us. Our resolve would be to have the thresholds finalized properly by a professional Contractor and have Advantage Flooring pay for these damages. Failing this resolve, the next step is to take Advantage Flooring to the small claims court and have him pay for any financial related costs in this matter, i.e. gas, hotel, meals, lawyer, etc..

            Extremely satisfied with the installation of my new maple hardwood flooring. The two young professionals were friendly, informative and very hard working. The two bedrooms were completed in 1 day, amazing job. They cleaned everything up and was able to move all my furniture in that night. Thank you very much, would recommend them to all of my family and friends. Diane
