Mr. Wayne Manger and his team did an amazing job on my floors and have been fantastic to work with. These guys are timely, professional, and do everything they say they will. It’s been a pleasure to work with Mr. Manger from John K. Eareckson & Co. Flooring!

I would like to thank you for your prompt service and excellent work. I was pleased to see a company that actually arrived to do the work when they said they would be there. I was astonished that your company installed 1,500 sq. ft. of flooring in a day’s time and refinished an entire second floor in just two days. Another subcontractor told me that it would take his company at least five days to complete just the refinishing portion of the job. I must tell you that I am very glad that I found you.
In the past I have had the displeasure of working with other contractors who are definitely not in your league. One of my worst experiences was with a well-known store. Their prices are high and their service is second rate at best. I was delighted with your work and your prices! I am sure that we will be working together in the near future.

We are so pleased that you and your team were a part of re-building the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Museum. Words cannot describe how happy we are to be re-open to the public. The last six months have been excitingly busy with a record number of visitors enjoying the new museum.
We ended up having to be closed to the public for 22 months. Fundraising, has obviously been our major focus, but during this time we have had the great fortune of re-birthing and re-organizing our museum. One of our initiatives moving forward is to partner with our vendors in a way that we never have before. Our business membership program, which enables our partners to support us financially and receive a tax deduction, is probably the most comprehensive in the state of Maryland. We are able to provide some fantastic membership benefits to those businesses that choose to come “on board”. Our current business members have been enjoying the VIP passes and one day complimentary passes. What better way to showcase your company’s fantastic work here then to provide complimentary passes to your employees and customers. We are now offering year round special event space to rent out for meetings and company gatherings while the museum is open, with special discounted rates for our business partners.
We enjoyed the relationship we had with your company during the museum’s re-building phase. We hope that our relationship can continue by having you consider John K. Eareckson become some level of business member. The renewal for your membership will be a yearly process. Please review the enclosed business membership materials. Consider selecting a level of membership that would suit your business needs. Please then send your completed membership application back in the enclosed return envelope, so that we can process your membership right away. We would love for your company to celebrate with us and enjoy America’s Railroad Museum .

Thank you so much for the beautiful floors. I would definitely recommend your company to my family and friends.

Thank you for the beautiful job you completed on our floors I Additionally, we’d like to send a special thanks to you for working around our tight timeframe. You were the only company out of a dozen or so that we spoke with, who was willing to sand, stain, and finish our bard????ood floors within a 72 hour period.
We were moving into our new house and simply planned to have our floors rebuffed. Then three days before we were supposed to move in, my husband pulled up the rugs in the living room, and found a large, black stain on the floor. We called Manger Hardwood in a panic. When Brent arrived at our house to begin work, he made no guarantees of removing it, but said he would “do his best” to sand it out The stain turned out to be animal urine, the most difficult type of stain to remove. Brent worked weekends to finish the job and he did beautiful work. The stain is virtually gone and our floors look fabulous. We think he absolutely did “his best” and are thrilled with the results!
Finally, we couldn’t have arranged all of this without the help of Joyce. Since we didn’t have time to schedule a face-to-face consult, she and I discussed what my husband and I wanted over the phone. Then she prepared a contract and faxed it to my work to speed up the process. Joyce was professional, knowledgeable, prompt and courteous.
Overall, Manger Hardwood Floors completed the job on time, with excellent craftsmanship and superior customer service. My husband and I would definitely use Manger again and would be happy to recommend you to others.

John Eareckson & Co. sanded, stained and applied 3 coats for finish to the floors in my living room, dining room and foyer. The estimator was prompt and easy to work with. The team arrived at the designated time each day. They were professional, very neat and did a great job. I would highly recommend this company!
~Cindy Redman
I am very pleased with the refinishing of my hardwood floors. Not only with the fine work, but the hard and well trusted workers you have working for you.
Your receptionist is very courteous on the telephone and returns all my calls. Ms. Fitzgerold and all your workers seem to go that extra mile in helping and pleasing customers.
Mr. Manager, I especially want to thank you for getting the job completed in a cooperative and timely fasion. My house looks spo beautiful. You have made me a very happy person. I will refer all my friends to your company.
Again, Thank you for a job well done.
God bless you!
~Clara Valeiki
Thanks again for the excellent job that you did in our home on on our floors. As we told you when we started, most of the experiences that we had with other contractors during a long and overdrawn renovation were horrific. People would not return calls, not show when they said they would, or provide bad service.
You and your team were, thankfully, very different. From your first visit to our home to the final polish on the first floor we were pleased and never disappointed Ir) your service and workmanship. You were flexible and worked around our schedule as we waited for others to complete their tasks.
In th short time that we’ve been in our new (1909) home, we had quite a few people over. They’ve all remarked on how good the floors look. Your suggestions, patience and work gave us three floors and tour sets of stairs of added beauty to our house. We love them.

I am writing to let you know that I am pleased with the work performed on my house on May 18 to 22nd of this year. I want to specifically thank Wayne for sending out two excellent crew members named Brent and Sal. I look forward to referring your company to all of my friends for any future hardwood floor needs.
~Craig Tien
Recently I had my floors sand and finished by your company, I just want to tell you that the job was beautifully done and my experience with your company was a delightful one. Your crews and office staff was more then helpful with all my questions. They walked me through step by step with the job.
~Craig Whittington
My husband gave me a gift for Christmas which was wood flooring in my kitchen and living room and all I had to do was arrange everything myself (some gift). I was not looking forward to this task but really wanted the floors, after looking on web sites and talking to my friends I decided to call John K. Eareckson to come out to my home with some samples and get an estimate.
After speaking with you I did have some doubts about the job being completed before Christmas due to the fact it was about 1,500 sq. ft., even when you told me it would only take 1 day for the floor to be installed. I talked with my husband that night and he told me to go with my gut reaction, and because you were so sure about your company I said all right lets do this. Well let me tell you it was the best decision I ever made.
Your company had the carpet up and hauled away on a Friday as well as the wood was delivered on that same Friday, then Saturday morning your crew was at my home bright and early to install the floor. To my surprise the floor and shoe molding was done in 1 day. To make a long story short, I had the best Christmas ever, my dinner guests loved the floor and my husband was very happy. I do believe in miracles thanks to you and your company.
~Diana Hargett
I would like to express my appreciation on a job well done. It has been a pleasure to work with such a professional and timely company. Your crew was very helpful in the way they removed my drapes from the windows. My arthritis would allow me to do this on my own.
~Elizabeth Woods
I contacted Wayne to fix the wood floors in our rental property. Wayne had to clean up a mess that a previous company had made and first removed several layers of stain. Before contacting Wayne, we thought we had to completely replace the floors. He was able to replace wood that was water damaged, you couldn’t even tell where the repair was made and the floors looked brand new when he was done. He did a spectacular job! He was incredibly accommodating, worked around our schedule so that we could show the property while he was working and was very competitively priced Not only would I contact him again, I have recommended him to our entire neighborhood listserv.

I am writing you this letter to thank you for the work that your company did at my farmhouse, which was built in the late 1800’s. We had 3 other flooring companies come to our house and said they either could not do the job or it would take 2-3 weeks to complete.
After hearing about your company from a historic web site in PA we decided to give your company a call, and have you come to our house to see what you could do. My wife and I are so glad that we decided to go with John K. Eareckson, we are so pleased with the job you and your crews have done. The job was done in a timely matter and everything you said you could do you have done.
~Jo & Donna Brammer
This letter is to express our thanks for you excellent work installing our hardwood floor. You were responsive to our initial calls, you kept your appointment with us with no delays- in fact you installed our floor one day early!
The workmanship was excellent and quite professional. Our floor looks great. Thanks so much
~Larry & Susan Patrick
I want to thank you for sending Brett and Howard to our home to refinish our floors. They did a great job and were very professional. We are very pleased with the results and the care that they showed.
Although I had expressed some concern about how the work would be done, I now know that my fears were unfounded. I sincerely appreciate having Brett and Howard on our job, and I would not hesitate to have them back for the rest of our floors in the future.
~Maureen & Neil Bobroff
This is to formally thank you for the professional services rendered to me from your floor building and refinishing company. It has been an extreme pleasure working with you these past few years, for the excellent service you have provided me in refinishing, restoring and maintaining the wood floors of my 100 year old home. I especially appreciate the help and support you gave me in preparing my home for sale. You were always prompt with your estimates and in scheduling the work. Your estimates were very fair and the work was always completed to my utmost satisfaction.
I am extremely grateful for your consistently kind and helpful approach towards me throughout our working relationship and I will sincerely miss your services when I relocate to Rhode Island.
I wish you all the best in the future.
~Melanie VanSant
I love the floor! It looks as if it always should have been there.
I wanted to comment on the crew that you sent to do the project: Tony, Jesse, and Frank. They were on time, polite, engaged in conversation, and respectful of my home.
Thank you so much for the improvement to our home. You probably would never need to but please feel free to use us as a reference.
~Nancy & Bill McMullen
To Whom It May Concern,
Just a note to thank you so much for the beautiful floors that I you installed. in October 2003. We went from very outdated and old mauve and blue carpets and not wanting to invite people over to a luxurious gunstock random plank hardwood flooring that has transformed our home into a showcase.
We have since opened our home to our church for Bible Studies and serving the community. Everyone truly loves the floors. It has given us so much confidence to invite our friends and family over to enjoy the home that God has blessed us with.
My prayers and blessings to you and your company.
~ReMax Ambassadors
I write this letter in appreciation of and praise for the absolutely beautiful job your employees Rex and Alberto did for me. My fifty-year old floors look as beautiful as those that appear in a home and garden magazine. The restorative work performed on them revealed their rich colors and nuances, giving them lots of character, as opposed to the plastic-looking alternatives available in home repair stores. Furthermore, the new kitchen floor your workmen installed blends in perfectly with the restored dining room, so much so, that one can hardly notice the difference between the old and new flooring! I believe that Alberto and Rex are not simply floor finishers but true artisans and craftsmen. You can certainly expect references from me to anyone wishing their floors to be restored.
~Robert Caperna

John K. Earekson & Con. did an outstanding job transforming the 65 year old hardwood floors into the floor that looks brand new.
We are very happy with the whole experience with John K. Eareckson Flooring.
Wayne was great at communicating with us, always available for answering any questions and able to accommodate our schedule and loved our Jack Russel!!!
My wife is currently pregnant and they had helped us to choose movers for a good price,
They really did an amazing job on bringing our dead hardwood floor to life!!!
As a result, we highly recommend him and his time to anyone thinking about refinishing their hardwood floors.
~The Eylers
Your guys did an amazing job! They were efficient and left the house very tidy.
Thank you,
~Laurie Brown
My husband and I are very pleased with the service that Eareckson Flooring provided. We weren’t sure what to expect with refinishing our 100+ year-old floors, but wow, what a difference! The finished job is gleaming and really shows off the decorative inlay. The repair of the old radiator holes was well done and maintained the character of the floor.
We have used Eareckson for hardwood floor projects at additional locations, and as always, you and your guys were professional and got the job done as promised. We will continue to call on your company in the future.
~Mr. & Mrs. BRL
Thank you for the floors. They look really good and better than I imagined. Tell the guys thanks also for all their hard work. I hope the floors last another 100 years!
~The Sneckers
Thanks for the lovely floors. A job well done. We’ll certainly keep you in mind for friends and other interested in your type of work.
~The Millers
The John K. Eareckson & Co. flooring company has performed solid and quick flooring work in my home. I have an old building in the Mt. Vernon section of Baltimore. I first had them sand, seal/varnish a studio unit with Georgia pine floors. I contacted Eareckson and two other flooring contractors. The representative was the first one to contact me and show up. They gave me quote on the spot. I then had to wait a day or two for the other two contractor’s quotes to come in. Eareckson beat them both and started work the next day. They did an excellent job. I called them a month or so later for a job to sand, seal and varnish a basement floor, but also, rip-out, support and patch an 8 X 8 section of flooring. Again, their price was the best offer and value. The work was completed quickly and to my satisfaction. I’ll use them again.
