Accent Flooring did a really great job installing hardwoods in our master bedroom for us. They matched the stain that was in the rest of the house. They showed up when they said they would, no surprises, simple and quick. Cleaned up after themselves. So happy we found them! Services: Floor refinishing, Install flooring, Sanding

Accent Hardwood removed damaged hardwoods from my home and replaced them with new flooring. The installation was efficient and well done and the employees are beyond professional. They kept the home incredibly clean throughout the process, cleaning as they went and before they left again each day. They were polite, professional, on time, and considerate, even going above and beyond to get a squeak out of my subfloor that they noticed on their own. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting great service done by skilled professionals.

Accent floors refinished the hardwood floors in the house we just purchased. The floors were 15 years old and thanks to the Accent Floors team they now look brand, spanking new. Not only do the floors look wonderful the customer service was 5-star. We appreciated the careful listening, care and follow-up. This is the 2nd time we have worked with Accent Floors and highly recommend them. --Stephanie

These folks take pride in their work and it shows in their workmanship. I hired them to refinish the floors in the house that belonged to my grandmother. They preserved the character of the floor which was very important to me, and applied a beautiful satin finish. I coordinated with Matt and Robert, who were very responsive and experts at communication. The work was done by Jeremy, and he was exceptional. They met their timeline, and the final cost was exactly what was expected.

The workers arrived when scheduled did a perfect job of matching our very old oak floors in two bedrooms, redid some staining on the molding when requested, and had a very helpful and pleasant moving company to shift furniture. The price was in line. I highly recommend them. Services: Oak wood, Install flooring

Outstanding in all respects. We had a large project - full refinishing of the first floor of our house. This included much repair and replacement due to stains. 8 days in total. The Accent crew knows what they are doing and are the best in the triangle. They have separate crews for repair and for sealing and all are full time employees (not contractors) - both of which aren't always true for their competition.

They have the reputation as being the best - our neighbors have also used them and were very pleased. We had the job quoted by 3 other firms and I was surprised that their cost was competitive with the others.

Edit to add: Not super satisfied with the response I've gotten over an area of my damaged floor that I feel was well within the scope of "fix the damaged floor by my bathroom." See *after* pic below. I'm told they did work here, but I just don't see it and didn't get any further detail. Maybe make sure it's clear your expectations before paying anyone anything here.

This company did a great job repairing my water damaged floor. You can barely tell what it looked like just a few days ago! They were also able to do this super quickly while some contractors were estimating >6 week wait. Did not disappoint!

Absolutely beautiful product from a company so easy to work with! From initial quote to final product we couldn't have been happier with our experience. We had many questions along the way when considering refinishing our red oak floors. The folks at Accent, specifically Robert, did an outstanding job presenting our options, pricing, and timeline. Professional crew was very friendly and timely. Do yourself a favor and call Accent! You can trust them with any hardwood project.

The crew at Accent Hardwood floors is amazing. There are few companies in Durham who do what they say, when they plan, for the price they quote. Accent is one of them! Their crews are always professional, polite, and smart. They've done multiple jobs for us at different houses and each one shines with their quality and attention to detail.

Accent Hardwoods did a great job repairing our hardwood floors. They patched and repaired the areas that suffered water damage. They sanded and stained the floors such that it matched well with other flooring in the house. They were professional, on time, and accessible by phone or text.

Accent Hardwood Flooring saved us! We had bought a floor from a big box company and it was taking months. They said to was going to cost thousands more to tear up the under flooring. 3 months into our project we had to send all the flooring back. Then we found Accent Hardwood Flooring. They ordered the flooring and had it installed perfectly within 2 weeks. Done! Professional! Don't make the mistake we did! Start with Accent Hardwood and get your flooring done professionally. You will save both stress and money. Plus support a local business!

We decided to change from carpet to hardwood flooring in our master bedroom and walk in closet. I contacted Accent Flooring ( Genie Smith). She came out to our house and evaluated our project. She had the work completed within 2 weeks. The floors our beautiful and match the flooring throughout our home. Professional, dependable, and talented.

We had Accent refinish our hardwood floors before we moved into a new. Although we noticed some splatter from the stain in various places, we did not realize the extent of the splatter and poor workmanship for some time, as most of it was hidden by furniture/shelving. Upon closer inspection, virtually every piece of baseboard or trim that is near floor or shoe molding that was stained, there was varnish splattered.

In some places, it's even on the walls. And in hard to see places, like underneath built-in shelving or in corners of closets, the work is much, much worse. We are now having to have all of our baseboards repainted. We contacted Accent about this and got nothing but a half-hearted one line apology.

Accent Flooring did an excellent job refinishing a few areas of my hardwood floor. I didn't think it was possible, but you can't even tell where the damage was in the two areas of my hallway. The cost was very reasonable too. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to my friends.

I have had Accent patch and completely refinish my c.1924 upstairs floors, deep clean my downstairs floors, install new cork flooring in my guest house and now come back and make some repairs due to a water leak.

We had Accent Flooring repair a number of areas. They did an excellent job and were on time and very responsive. We will use them to refurbish all of our floors in the future.

You will regret using another company! The owner Genia and her second-in-charge Robert are true professionals that stand behind their work. They were good enough to come to my place and resolve a small matter TWO YEARS after they re-finished my floors. That's outstanding service!

Genia and Robert took care of me. I had a problem almost 2 years after they refinished the floors in my summer home and Robert came out and beautifully resolved it. They are consummate professionals; do a great job and stand behind their work.

I called Accent Hardwood Flooring to give me an estimate and I called them a second time after I considered perhaps adding another room to refinish. They came out both times without problems and on time.

Cannot recommend these folks. They finally got back to me after three weeks of leaving messages. When they came out their quote was a little high but not terrible. When I tried to book them for the work they could not accommodate any of my available weeks.

I had a contractor use Accent to refinish my parquet floors and after they began to buckle (the owner) first response was I should complain to the contractor. I convinced her to at least see what she could do to help, with an additional $200 they came out and did some re gluing and nailed down some of the squares (not what I would call tlc).

My floors were just completed today and they are absolutely beautiful! Genia helped me chose the exact sizes of my herringbone and border and she was wonderful to work with! She was patient and thorough and responsive.
