ABOUT

Raymond is a third-generation carpenter, and a second-generation flooring mechanic, with 20-plus years of experience. Introduced by his father, Thomas Murray, and two uncles to the craft of hardwood flooring at a young age, Ray currently lives in Southwest Portland with his two daughters Áine (7), and Sadie (9). Cromwell Hill Wood Flooring started when Ray realized that all his peers who were finishing up collage with every degree you can imagine couldn't find work. He left art school and started Cromwell Hill flooring, named after the street where he grew up. 

Today, Cromwell Hill is establishing itself as a high-quality floor installation business known for exquisite craftsmanship, with over 15 years of professional service for clients and projects ranging from big to small.  We have remodeled, sanded, finished and installed a countless number (easily in the thousands) of commercial and residential projects. Specializing in custom staining, custom colors and custom installation services, we use only the finest materials available, sourcing everything from domestic oak to the world’s most exotic hardwoods, while taking every precaution to operate safely with respect to a client's property and possessions.

Hardware floor work offers many opportunities to think about sustainability. What the ReBuilding Center does here in Portland with deconstructing houses and reclaiming the building materials is commendable. We feel very strongly about giving back to mother earth, so a percentage of profits from each project will go to friendsoftrees.org or a similar group that focuses on forestry and community stewardship.
