A Flooring Company That's Been Earning Its Reputation Since 2006

The company is MA Licensed and Insured, operates with dustless sanding equipment that keeps your home clean during the job, and offers eco-friendly finishing options that are safe for families and pets.

About the Owner

Francisco Romero-Ibarra — Owner, Lead Installer

Francisco started Romero Hardwood Floors in 2006 with one goal: do the kind of flooring work he'd want done in his own home. That hasn't changed.

He's on every job. Not managing from an office while a crew handles the details — actually there, doing the work, answering your questions, and making sure the finished floor is exactly what you hired him for. More than 20 years of hands-on experience means he's seen the problems other contractors miss and knows how to solve them before they become your problem. Francisco is also bilingual in English and Spanish — an important detail for many homeowners across Revere, Lynn, Chelsea, and East Boston who prefer to talk through their project in Spanish.

Recent Work Across Greater Boston and the North Shore

Our Service Area

Areas Rooted in Revere. Working All Across Greater Boston.

Romero Hardwood Floors is centrally located in Revere, MA, which means we're not driving in from two counties away and rushing through jobs to beat traffic. We know these neighborhoods. We've worked in the triple-deckers in East Boston, the older colonials in Peabody, the newer builds in Newton, and the historic homes along the North Shore. Greater Boston and the North Shore are full of houses with remarkable original hardwood floors hiding under decades of carpet and old finish. We've seen it hundreds of times, and there's nothing quite like pulling back that carpet and finding solid oak that just needs the right hands to restore it.

Hiring a flooring contractor is an investment in your home. A real investment — one that you'll live with for decades. Every job completed by Romero Hardwood Floors is backed by a 1-year conditional warranty on workmanship.

Frequently Asked Questions

Flooring Questions & Answers for Homeowners in Greater Boston 

How do I know if my hardwood floors can be refinished or if they need to be replaced?

The short answer: most solid hardwood floors can be refinished multiple times over their lifetime, as long as enough material remains above the tongue-and-groove to sand down safely. Engineered hardwood can typically be refinished once or twice depending on the thickness of the wear layer. Francisco will assess your floors during the free in-home estimate and give you an honest answer — refinishing is almost always less expensive than replacement, and the results can be dramatic. If replacement is the better option for your situation, he'll tell you that too.

What is dustless sanding and why does it matter?

Traditional floor sanding uses drum or belt sanders that send fine hardwood dust into the air throughout your home — coating furniture, getting into HVAC systems, and requiring significant cleanup after the job. Romero's dustless sanding system uses specialized equipment that captures that dust at the source through a high-powered vacuum system. Your furniture stays clean, your air quality isn't compromised, and cleanup after the job is minimal. For homeowners with children, pets, or allergies, it's not just a convenience — it's a meaningful difference.

Are your finishing products safe for kids and pets?

Yes. Romero Hardwood Floors offers eco-friendly, low-VOC finishing options that dramatically reduce the amount of volatile organic compounds off-gassed into your home during and after the finishing process. These products cure faster and produce fewer fumes than traditional oil-based finishes. Francisco will walk you through your finish options during the estimate so you can choose what's right for your household.

How long does a typical hardwood floor project take?

It depends on the scope. A standard refinishing job on a single floor of a home typically takes 2–4 days from sanding through final coat cure time. New installation projects vary based on square footage, subfloor prep requirements, and whether stairs or complex patterns are involved. Francisco will give you a realistic timeline during the estimate — and he sticks to it.

Do you work in New Hampshire as well as Massachusetts?

Yes. Romero Hardwood Floors serves homeowners in key communities throughout Southern New Hampshire, including Nashua, Manchester, Salem NH, Derry, Londonderry, Bedford, and surrounding areas. The same licensed, insured, dustless-sanding standard applies to every NH job — no difference in quality based on which state you're in.

Is Romero Hardwood Floors licensed and insured?

Yes. Francisco holds a MA Home Improvement Contractor License (HIC 201133) and a MA Construction Supervisor License — Unrestricted (CS115759). Both are current and active. Every job is fully insured. You can verify both licenses through the Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation.

Do you offer a warranty on your work?

Yes. Every completed job is backed by a 1-year conditional warranty on workmanship. If there's a defect in the installation or service itself — not normal wear and tear or damage from other causes — it gets corrected at no cost to you. Francisco will walk you through the warranty terms during the estimate.

What flooring types do you install beyond solid hardwood?

In addition to solid and engineered hardwood, Romero installs laminate, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), and tile. Francisco also specializes in custom pattern installation — herringbone, chevron, parquet, and inlays — for homeowners looking for something beyond a standard straight-lay floor. If you've seen a floor you love and want to know if it's achievable in your home, bring the photo to the estimate conversation.

Do you do bathroom and kitchen remodeling, or just floors?

Both. For homeowners who want to tackle a larger renovation, Romero Hardwood Floors offers full bathroom and kitchen remodeling — demo through finish. It's the same owner, the same standard of care, and the convenience of one contractor managing the whole project instead of coordinating between two or three.

How do I get started?

Call (617) 913-0155 or use the contact form to request a free in-home estimate. Francisco will reach out promptly to schedule a time that works for you. There's no commitment required to get the estimate, no pressure to move forward on the spot, and no fee for the visit.
