I've been so pleased with Michael Flores Floors, 925-875-9082. He was working for his father-in-law when he put in new hardwood floors for us and refinished our originals. Gorgeous! He matched the stain perfectly. When his father-in-law, retired, Mike went out on his own and I brought him back to put more new hardwood in and you can't see a difference. I will bring him back again to finish my last two bedrooms
Though a standard question, it's important to ask. Most contractors will tell you how long they expect the job to take without you asking. If they don't volunteer that information, be sure to ask. It's also helpful to ask if that's a hard finish date, meaning that it's the definite finish date. If it's a soft finish date, it may be extended for any number of reasons.
You'll always want to ask how long the company has been in business in Dublin. While this isn't a guarantee that the company will do good work, companies with longevity on their side must be doing something right. That being said, there are newer companies that do great work. If the company is under three years old, ask where the owner was employed before and for how long. If he/she has a long history of employment, it's reasonable to infer that he or she decided to go into business for themselves after so many years of experience.
This really only matters if you have a preference, but it is good to ask. If you have a strong ideological belief about unions or nonunions, it's perfectly acceptable to make a decision based on the preference.
Some companies may require a 10% deposit, some may not require any. For larger projects, you'll almost always need to give a deposit, and it's good to ask how much the deposit will be before going forward with a project. The Dublin contractor will know how much they need for a deposit when they've given you the estimate, so ask early.
