 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I hired Upper Lower to take up old carpet and replace it with hardwood flooring on my second floor. Mike brought me a number of options and made suggestions that were exactly what I wanted. So pleased with the end result!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike and his team remodeled our bathroom and did a phenomenal job. The before and after amazes me, because I am convinced it's not the same bathroom, or the same room of the house for that matter, the differences are that substantial. It is a major upgrade and would recommend them any day of the week.
