Cornelius Contracting

Cornelius Contracting takes on tile work plus broader flooring and countertop jobs from their base in Spring, Texas. They have operated since January 2000 and cover the greater Houston area that includes Tomball, Katy, Sugar Land, The Woodlands and Conroe. The company installs and fabricates wood, tile, natural stone, carpet, laminate and vinyl flooring options along with granite, marble, quartzite and travertine countertops and backsplashes through their own facility and supplier network.

Homeowners call them for small fixes such as pulling out loose floor boards and closing gaps at island bases, or for bigger projects like swapping entire downstairs floors to LVP, laying new carpet upstairs and setting tile in bathrooms and laundry rooms. Other jobs include tearing out old wood-look tile to install fresh wood-look tile, adding countertops and backsplashes, or repairing water-damaged sections and swapping cracked tiles. Sebastian shows up on many of these jobs along with Doug, Jonathan, Brandy and Corona, and reviewers note the crews help pick shades and guide selections like a large quartzite piece that changed a kitchen.

Crews arrive on time, keep moving even when power is out, finish early and stay on budget according to the accounts. Communication through operations stays timely during the work, though some note administrative follow-up can lag. The same teams handle both quick tile repairs and full-home flooring changes across the listed towns without reported delays on most jobs.

Google shows a 4.2 rating from 34 reviews. Plenty of customers praise the results with Sebastian and Doug on tile and hardwood installs plus the overall craftsmanship. A smaller number flag issues with standing behind work on warranty repairs and scheduling fixes after the fact.

“We recently had Sebastian and his Company replace a loose floor board. They took care to remove the loose one and install the replacement boards. They also addressed an area at the base of our island (a gap between the island base and the quarter round). The work looks good and we are happy with the results.”

“We recently hired Cornelius Contracting to replace all the flooring in our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They handled a massive scope of work, including: • Downstairs: Beautiful new LVP flooring throughout. • Upstairs: Fresh, high-quality carpet. • Wet Areas: Precise tile installation in the bathrooms and laundry. The team was incredibly efficient and managed to keep the project moving without any delays. Most importantly, they stayed exactly on budget. It’s rare to find a contractor who delivers this level of quality while being so reliable. Highly recommended!”

“Used Cornelius Contractors to remove wood look tile and reinstall different wood-look tile, countertops and back splash. Could not had been more pleased. Workers were excellent! On time, worked hard and did outstanding work. They took time and helped us choose the right shades of tiles and more importantly guided us on a 10’x6’ piece of quartzite that was and is Fabulous! Changed entire look of the kitchen remodel. Strongly recommend taking a hard look at Cornelius Contractors! Their design, prep and workers are outstanding!”

“Cornelous Contracting did an excellent job repairing my flooring after it was damaged by water. They were quick, precise, and very professional throughout the entire process. They completed the job in a timely manner, and I was very pleased with the quality of their work. I highly recommend Cornelous Contracting!”

“These guys came in to replace 10 or so cracked tiles. They were very efficient and got the job done without any issue. Professional and kind are how I would describe the crew and the service we received. Thanks guys!”

“Great experience with Cornelius Contracting. They repaired my floor professionally with excellent attention to detail. Sebastian was very helpful, knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout the process. Highly recommend their services.”

“Cornelius Construction crew did an amazing job. My neighborhood lost electricity while they were here and they didn’t skip a beat despite it getting hot. They are professional, arrived on time and finished early despite the lack of electricity. I would absolutely recommend them if you are looking for carpet or flooring done to your place.”

“Sebastian and his group did an excellent job fixing our warranty work in our new house. He explained the whole process and kept me updated every day on what was happening. I will definitely use them again if we are in need of work.”

“My hardwood floors are absolutely beautiful. I had a positive experience with this company particularly working with Doug and Sebastian. In all transparency I did have issues with my initial installment of laminate flooring, which may have been a bigger issue with the quality of the brand , I'm not sure. However, Doug was very easy to work with and explained the differences in flooring (laminate vs hardwood and an overview of the different floors within those categories). We chose hardwood to replace the laminate and they are absolutely gorgeous and elevates the look of my home. I waited some time before doing a review to ensure the floors held up and I am very please with the installment and my selection.”

“This company did a super quality job on our flooring. Both tile, and hardwoods. Their workers are super responsive and professional. Showed up on time and finished the job! In a tight timeframe I may add. We would highly recommend them to anyone for their services. Very professional and high quality craftmanship.”

“⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cornelius Contracting did a fantastic job installing carpet in my bedroom. Jonathan and Brandy were extremely knowledgeable and so helpful throughout the entire process. The installation crew—led by Corona and assisted by two other men—was punctual, respectful, and incredibly hard-working. They took great care with everything and made sure the job was done right. I truly appreciate the professionalism and kindness from everyone involved. I highly recommend Cornelius Contracting!”

“Installation was smooth and precise, communication with operations was timely and installers were kind, administrative communication was spotty.”

“These guys are awesome! They go above and beyond! Sebastian is very thorough and detail oriented . I would reccomend this company to anybody in a heart beat!”

“I worked with Doug for flooring needs in my home and cannot thank him enough for all his help! He is friendly, professional, and was always willing to go out of his way to help me from start to finish. I love my stair runner and area rug, they look great and are holding up SO well to pets, kids, and high traffic areas. It was a really positive experience.... highly recommend!”

“Sabestian and team did a great job replacing some of my blemished laminate flooring. They put all the unblemished flooring back perfectly.”

“Cornelius Contracting is awesome and they did an amazing job on our floors .. Their customer service was great along with the installation of the wooden floors they installed through out our home..The craftsmanship of the floors is no comparison to what I had … The floors were just what I wanted .. They did an excellent job and will call them again …”

“DO NOT USE THEM FOR FLOORING! They do not stand behind their work! They laid a very POOR flooring in our new home and won’t guarantee their work. Also BEWARE KHOV HOMES CONTRACTS THEM FOR NEW HOME INSTALLS”

“Sebastian and his crew provided great quality flooring and excellent customer service.”

“Poor quality, doesn't get the job done right the first time, impossible to schedule repairs with. In the end, they refused to fix the job "because they didn't want to be liable for damages". Didnt understand that one...This was only for 4 uneven tiles in the restroom. Luckily, this was all communicated to me from my builder so they sent out someone else from another contracting company who got the job done the following day in 2 hours. I wouldn't recommend Cornelius Contracting, they will talk nice and be friendly, but when it comes down to getting things done, I wouldn't count on it.”

“Great customer service and very professional people. Worked with Sebastian and was pleased with the work they did.”
