Walkthrough Before We Start

Day zero is a walk around the house with our lead installer, who jumps on soft spots, eyeballs door clearances and sketches which direction the rows will travel.

Licensed, Insured Installation

NWFA certified mechanics, licensed, insured and employed directly by us, handle your floor, so no stranger from a subcontracting list ever kneels in your living room.

Remeasure and Material Count

Install morning starts with a second round of measuring. Cartons, reducers and thresholds get tallied against the plan before the compressor even switches on.

One Year Install Warranty

For twelve months after we pack the saws, our workmanship is guaranteed, and the mill's warranty on the wood remains yours as well.

/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS

Hardwood Floor Patterns

Layout is the sneaky detail. Straight runs, diagonals, herringbone and chevron are all on the menu, and six options below show how each reads.

Lengths tracking the room's longest wall, the quiet, timeless choice with very little waste.

/ OUR SERVICES

Acton Hardwood Floor Installers

Out in South Acton by the train and over by the town center, plenty of houses still have carpet tacked over plywood. On this job our crew peeled it all away, rolled out a moisture resistant paper and drove cleats through each oak strip, leaving an expansion gap along the walls for summer swelling.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ

Before signing off on new oak, Acton folks want the total, the calendar and a packing list. Here are those answers, plain and simple.
Get your Free In-Home Estimate
What's the wood floor installation cost in my house?

Cleating it down costs $2.25/Sq Ft for labor, glue assisted runs $2.50/Sq Ft, and floating sits at $2.00/Sq Ft. With our wood included, figure $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished, while prefinished is $6.00/Sq Ft.

Do I need to buy the hardwood from you?

Nope. Bring your own planks and we'll install them at our labor rates. If you'd like ours, they leave the Coventry warehouse a day later at contractor pricing, and a cheaper written quote elsewhere gets beaten.

What happens to the carpet that's there now?

We roll it up, pull the tack strips and haul it out for about $1.00/Sq Ft. Hauling your furniture out and back costs $250 flat for anyone who doesn't want to lift a couch.

Is engineered wood real hardwood?

Yes, the top layer is genuine oak or another species bonded to a stable plywood core. It handles humidity swings better, which makes it the smart pick over concrete or in a basement.

How many days does a typical install take?

A couple of bedrooms can wrap up in a day. A whole first floor may need two or three, plus a few days beforehand so solid wood can acclimate to the house.

Can new oak run into my existing hallway floor?

Usually. At the doorway we tooth fresh strips into the older rows, and then a single sanding of both areas, $2.50/Sq Ft, evens the color across them.

How and when is my install paid?

You pay the installation as our van parks, and you pay the material on delivery. Any sanding included gets split fifty percent on the first day and fifty at the finish.

What's covered if a plank lifts later?

Our workmanship promise lasts twelve months from install day, while the mill honors its own terms on the wood. Ring 508-306-4190 about any lifted plank, and the same crew returns to handle it.
