"I highly recommend Monteros Hardwood Flooring. They refinished the hardwood floors at our Redlands home and they look new and we are extremely happy with the results. Javier communicated regularly throughout the project. His team is professional, efficient and very prompt and the work was finished in a timely manner. We are very pleased with the results and we highly recommend them."
Hardwood Flooring Installation in Redlands
Solid and engineered hardwood floors installed by craftsmen with 20+ years on Inland Empire homes.
Hardwood Installation in Redlands, CA
Most Redlands flooring installs we run start with a homeowner who's lived with carpet or builder-grade for too long. Heavy historic stock (1890s – 1940s) with raised foundations and original-growth wood floors, which is exactly the type of subfloor and layout we work on every week.
Our shop in San Bernardino is about 15 minutes from Redlands. Close enough for fast service calls, established enough that we know the neighborhoods, the building stock, and the local building department. We've been installing hardwood and luxury flooring across San Bernardino County for over 20 years.

About Redlands Homes
Redlands has more historic homes per capita than any other Inland Empire city - Victorian, craftsman, and Spanish-revival from the 1890s through 1930s. Original Douglas fir and oak floors hide under decades of carpet, and refinishing them is some of the most rewarding work we do.
Housing profile: Heavy historic stock (1890s – 1940s) with raised foundations and original-growth wood floors. South Redlands and Smiley Heights have larger turn-of-century homes; newer 1990s – 2010s tracts sit in north and east Redlands.
