"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."
Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee
If our installation ever fails because of how we installed it, we make it right - for as long as you own the floor.
What\'s Covered (Workmanship)
- Squeaks caused by our nailing or fastening method
- Lifting boards caused by improper subfloor prep we performed
- Open seams or transitions caused by improper install
- Quarter-round, baseboard, and trim work we installed
- Stair tread and riser installation we performed
- Refinishing finish failures attributable to our application process
What\'s Covered (Materials)
The materials themselves carry manufacturer warranties - typically 25 to 50 years for hardwood, 15 to 30 years for LVP and laminate. We provide all warranty paperwork at job sign-off.
What\'s Not Covered
- Damage from water leaks, plumbing failures, or flooding
- Damage from pets, furniture, or impact
- Color fading from prolonged direct sunlight
- Failure from indoor humidity outside the manufacturer\'s recommended range (typically 35 – 55%)
- Damage from improper cleaning products (we provide a recommended cleaner list)
- Modifications, repairs, or refinishing performed by others
How to Make a Workmanship Claim
- Call us at (909) 279-8225 or email monteroshardwood@gmail.com.
- Describe the issue and provide photos if possible.
- We schedule an inspection within a few business days.
- If covered, we repair at no cost. If not covered, we provide an honest assessment and quote.
How to Make a Materials Claim
Manufacturer material warranties are between you and the manufacturer. We provide all paperwork and contact information at sign-off and assist with the claim process if needed.
Transferability
Workmanship warranty is non-transferable - it covers the original homeowner. If you sell, the new owner would need to address any issues directly.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Most installations and refinishing jobs start within 2 – 4 weeks of estimate sign-off. Smaller repair jobs can usually start the same week. Larger whole-house projects sometimes book out 4 – 6 weeks during spring and fall busy seasons. We give you our actual schedule in writing on every quote - no vague promises.
- Yes - every estimate is free, no-pressure, and includes samples on-site. We measure, take subfloor moisture readings, walk through species and finish options, and give you a written, itemized quote within a few days. The quote holds for 30 days.
- We serve the entire Inland Empire and surrounding communities, including San Bernardino, Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Riverside, Corona, Rialto, Redlands, Highland, and Loma Linda. We also handle larger projects in Orange County and Palm Springs by appointment.

- Lifetime workmanship guarantee on every install - if our installation ever fails, we fix it. Manufacturer warranties on the materials themselves vary by product (typically 25 – 50 years residential).
- Standard furniture is moved as part of the install - couches, beds, dressers, chairs. Pianos, gun safes, oversized items, and live electronics are typically the homeowner's responsibility. We flag this in writing during the estimate so there are no surprises.
- Far less than the old days. We use a dust-contained sanding system that captures most particulate at the source. Expect light residual dust on hard surfaces in adjacent rooms - we wipe down at the end of every job.
