How much can a flooring company's website tell me?
12 of the 15 listings link to a website. The useful pages are photo galleries, and the photos worth studying are stairs, thresholds and borders rather than wide shots of empty rooms. Edges and stair nosings are where a rushed sanding job shows first, so look for close work and before-and-after pairs.
