OUR APPROACH
A practical approach to your floors
Before founding the company, Peter Dudzik spent several years working as an installer, floor sander and supervisor for another flooring company. He opened his own business after learning the trade and incorporated it in 1996. Today we are a family-owned team of four, and with more than 30 years of experience we have completed several thousand jobs — many for customers who come back years later for their next home.
Every home starts with a different question. Can the original wood be saved? Will new flooring work with the existing rooms? Is a recoat enough to refresh a worn finish?
We begin by looking at what is already there. Then we talk through materials, colors, finish options, and the work your project needs. The goal is to help you make a clear decision before work begins.
Our work takes us throughout Chicago’s North Shore, with a particular focus on Winnetka, Highland Park, and the surrounding communities near Lake Michigan.
MEET THE OWNER
Peter Dudzik, owner and President
Peter Dudzik leads the work at Access Wood Flooring himself. His days are spent with the whole range of what we do: refinishing, new solid and engineered hardwood floors, herringbone and chevron patterns, repairs, and stairs, from refinishing to complete rebuilds.
He runs every job the same way: the floors are measured with a laser, stain samples about 12 by 12 inches go on your own wood before you choose a color, sanding is done with dust-containment equipment, and the job ends with a walkthrough covering drying times, furniture and floor care.
The company is a family business. His wife answers calls and handles bookkeeping, and two employees complete the team.

OUR HISTORY
Where we started in Chicago
This is our first City of Chicago business license, issued in November 1997, a year after Access Flooring started. We show it as a piece of company history.
It is an old document that expired in 1998, not a current license, and the owner’s name and the address of our first location are covered. Today we are based in Hoffman Estates and work across the North Shore and the northwest suburbs.
TRUST & ACCREDITATION
BBB Accredited Business since 2008
Access Wood Flooring has been accredited by the Better Business Bureau since December 2008 and commits to the BBB Standards of Trust. We carry general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, hold a City of Chicago contractor license, and stand behind our workmanship and finish with a one-year warranty.
WHAT WE DO
Floors and stairwork planned together
Our services include hardwood installation, sanding, staining, refinishing, recoating, and floor repairs. We also install engineered wood and laminate, and work on stair treads, handrails, and spindles. Planning these elements together helps create a consistent look from room to room and between floors.
