Big Bro Hardwood is an employee-owned hardwood flooring company serving homeowners throughout Chicago, Illinois and more than 30 surrounding suburbs. With 17+ years of hands-on experience, 500+ completed projects, and over 15,000 hours of hardwood work, the team has built a reputation for precision, reliability, and lasting results across the Chicagoland area.
Led by owner Donatas, the small, focused crew handles every job from the first measurement to the final coat. Their services include hardwood floor installation (prefinished and unfinished, solid and engineered), dustless sanding and refinishing, custom staining, repair of scratches, dents and water damage, and stair installation and refinishing. Pricing starts at just $3 per square foot, making high-quality flooring accessible without a luxury price tag.
What sets Big Bro Hardwood apart is its commitment to clean, considerate work. Advanced dustless sanding technology keeps homes cleaner and protects indoor air quality, while certified pet- and family-safe finishes from brands like Loba and Bona ensure healthy results. The company tailors every project to Chicago's unique homes and climate — from historic bungalows to high-rise condos — accounting for winter dryness, humidity swings, and moisture near Lake Michigan.
The team follows EPA lead-safe (RRP) practices when restoring pre-1978 homes, including original solid hardwood, vintage parquet, and hand-cut planks. More than 80% of new clients come from word-of-mouth referrals, a reflection of consistent customer satisfaction and an outstanding rating across reviews.
