"I just had my floor boards which I purchased from Eastern Flooring and had them installed by them. I can't express enough how happy I am with the floor boards. I made the right choice and I love them. My cat is very unhappy cause he can't scratch anymore. Lol. Mercifully I had an old carpet so I let him play with it. The workmanship on the floor boards was excellent and would recommend anyone."
