About Felts Refinishing & Renovations

Experience You Can Trust. Workmanship You Can See.

At Felts Refinishing & Renovations, we believe inviting someone into your home requires trust.
You deserve a contractor who shows up when they say they will, communicates with you throughout the project, respects your home and your time, and takes pride in doing the job right.
That’s the standard behind Felts.
With more than 22 years of hands-on refinishing and renovation experience, we’ve built our business around quality workmanship, attention to detail, honest recommendations and fair pricing. Whether we’re refinishing a bathtub, updating cabinets and countertops, installing new flooring or transforming multiple areas of a home, we approach every project the same way:

We treat your property like it’s our own.

Our story

How It All Started

Founder Jim Felts began his career as a technician working on acrylic pool decks and lanais throughout the Tampa Bay area. Years of experience spraying with airless equipment eventually paved the way for him to pick up a refinishing gun, and opened the door to what would become a career in property renovation.
  1. Large-scale renovation. Jim went on to work on large-scale renovation projects throughout Tampa Bay, including projects across Mahaffey Properties communities. As he helped transform properties and prepare them for new residents, his skills quickly expanded beyond refinishing.
  2. Beyond refinishing. He learned to repair and reconstruct existing cabinetry, restore aging surfaces, complete property repairs and find creative ways to breathe new life into things that didn’t necessarily need to be replaced.
  3. Site foreman. Within just three months, Jim was promoted to site foreman, managing multiple crews and renovation projects.
  4. His own company. He eventually became a subcontractor himself and launched Innovative Creations & Renovations.
  5. One trusted company for more of your home. Over the years, Jim continued learning new trades, expanding his capabilities and building the experience that allows Felts to offer homeowners something especially valuable today.

More Than Refinishing

What began with refinishing has grown into a much more comprehensive home-improvement and renovation company.
Today, Felts Refinishing & Renovations provides homeowners with solutions for refinishing, repairs, flooring, cabinets, countertops and renovations, often eliminating the headache of finding and coordinating several different contractors for one project.
And because of our refinishing background, our first instinct isn’t always “tear it out and replace it.”
We know how to recognize when something can be repaired, restored or refinished, and when replacement really is the better investment.
That means we’ll help you understand your options so you can make the decision that makes the most sense for your home, your vision and your budget.

Experience From Every Side of the Property

In 2026, Felts entered its next chapter with the addition of a new partner bringing more than 25 years of experience in real estate, mortgage lending, property investment and operations.

Combined with Jim’s decades of hands-on renovation experience, that gives Felts a unique perspective on property improvements: not only how to complete the work beautifully, but how renovation decisions can affect a home’s function, marketability and value.
That experience also allows us to serve Realtors®, real estate investors and property managers who need a dependable renovation partner who understands the bigger picture.

What You Can Expect From Felts

We know homeowners have plenty of stories about contractors who didn’t call back, didn’t show up, left a mess, changed the price or disappeared halfway through a project.
We want your experience with Felts to be different.
You can expect clear communication, dependable scheduling, professional service, fair pricing and people who respect your home.
Most importantly, you can expect us to care about the finished product.
We’re not interested in simply checking another job off the schedule. We want you to walk into the finished space, love what you see and feel good about who you trusted to do it.

The Felts Standard

Those aren’t marketing words to us. They’re the standards we want our name associated with.

Because Felts isn’t just the name on the company. It’s our family name, and we stand behind the work attached to it.
