It was a pleasure working with Ralph at Installer Direct. He was easy to communicate with, friendly and helpful answering all my questions. He knew I was on a budget and gave me option to stay within budget on the project. The demo and the install was quick and the team was professional. I highly recommend to other homeowners for your flooring project.

Ive been renovating a house as an investment. I needed floors do e quickly. I got four different companies to give me a quote & Ralph at installer direct had the best price and did it right away. Not only was the work exceptional and quick, Ralph gave excellent customer service with good integrity - so much so it felt like a friend was doing the work. He met me in the evening and gave great advice when asked. If I remember correctly from one conversation, Ralph's been doing this work for 25 years. You definitly wint go wrong with Ralph! One of the best decisions I recently made.

Ralph and his crew did an amazing job!
Not only did Ralph provide an accurate estimate, but he also went above and beyond to help me find the exact floor stain I was looking for. His rates are incredibly competitive and unmatched in the current market. He even picked up the materials himself and perfectly matched the floor stain for my staircase. I will definitely work with him again and highly recommend his services. Hire them—you won't be disappointed!
