Customer Testimonials

“We had a leak that damaged 1/2 of our living room flooring. NYTDR did an amazing job working with our insurance company and then completely restoring half of the floor. You cannot tell at all where they refinished one half vs the other half that was not damaged. On top of that they did it really fast! Great job and I would highly recommend them to anyone!” Andrew Google
