Amazing! The Samurai team made me so happy. Not only were they helpful, professional, and timely (some traits hard to find here in the Kootenays) but they totally transformed my old hardwood floors into something new and absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend Samurai!

Highly recommend. From product selection to install, Samurai is the best. Excellent service experience, deep knowledge base, and quality installations. I have utilized their services for both residential and commercial applications. I've also seen their work in high end homes. Amazing.

Samurai Flooring provided us with exception client service and support, from the time we entered there flooring showroom to the last coat of matt finishing on our restored Oak and Fir flooring. Niki was wonderful to work with from product selection to application. Sonnys on site consultation and his ability to rise up to the challenge of working on our 1905 Uphill Nelson home ......was simply Stellar! The flooring project had many issues and complications simply due to the age of our home.....it was no easy task...even for the highly experienced crew of Samurai. (Cory, Luke, Peter, Craig). We

I LOVE my new floors! I am a girl that likes her slippers but since I got my new floors I want to walk around in bare feet because they feel so lovely. Sunny and Niki are the best, I would highly recommend Samurai. The only place you need to go for your flooring needs.

Going into the store there are a few things that stand out immediately. The customer service is phenomenal, the quality and selection is very unique and something that's hard to come by in the Kootenay, and there's a type of flooring for everyone there. They do free square footage quotes and are extremely punctual on getting back to you with any question you have. The store really compliments Nelson's community.
