About Abbey Flooring in Ohio

Abbey Flooring is a small flooring company based in Lorain County. We install and refinish floors in the houses around us, and we think about the house before we think about the floor.

Why we start with the house

Our area has an unusual mix of homes. Century foursquares stand a few streets from postwar ranches, and newer subdivisions sit at the edge of both. Each kind of house was built with its own idea of what a floor should be, and the most satisfying projects work with that idea instead of against it.

So the first question at a visit is not which product you want, but what the house is like: how old it is, how the rooms connect, what the trim looks like and what is under the current floor. The right floor usually becomes clear from there.

How we work

We keep the work simple and clear. A visit and measurements, a written estimate that lists the rooms, the floor, the trim and the preparation, then install days that run in a set order. We protect the path through the house, keep the rooms tidy at the end of each day and walk the finished floor with you.

We answer the phone during office hours and reply to messages the same way, by the method you prefer.

What you can expect

  • Respect for old floors

    When original oak can be saved, we say so. Refinishing is often the quieter and more fitting choice.

  • Clear paperwork

    The scope is written down before work begins, room by room, so everyone knows what is planned.

  • Tidy days

    Paths are covered, dust is controlled and rooms are swept at the end of each day.

  • Plain advice

    We explain the trade offs between floors in everyday words and let you decide.
