/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
A center hall colonial, a hillside split level and a ranch with a finished walkout each want a different approach. Here is how we match the install to the house.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Red oak nailed over plywood replaces creaky builder grade boards in many 1960s hillside bedrooms.
Herringbone Hardwood
Walkout lower levels receive floated engineered planks over a vapor barrier, so no nail ever hits the slab.
Chevron Hardwood
Steep driveways and long front walks do not slow us, because the crew hand carries every carton inside.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards glued and nailed at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive stay silent over the plywood in an upstairs bedroom.
Checkerboard Parquet
A warm honey prefinished plank lifts a shaded den where tall trees block the afternoon light.
Basket Weave Parquet
Entry boards by the garage door take a hard finish that stands up to winter salt and wet boots.

My split level has bouncy subfloor. Can I still install oak?
Yes, after we fasten the loose plywood and shim the low spots. Hillside houses shift, so we flag each problem area at the first visit.
Can wood go into a walkout basement?
Floated engineered planks over a vapor barrier are the usual route, at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor. We check the slab for moisture first.
Do you take up the existing flooring?
Yes. Carpet or old wood comes out at about $1.00/Sq Ft, and it leaves in our truck.
Is there a discount for booking online?
Booking the estimate through our website takes $250 off. A flat $250 also covers moving your furniture.
How long will a Berkeley Heights job last?
Two prefinished rooms often take a day or two. Raw oak that is sanded and coated in place needs about a week.
Where do you ship the wood from?
The boards come from our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ. Delivery is next day from Long Branch once you order.
Who is on my crew and what is covered?
The people in your house are our employees, licensed, insured and NWFA certified. We warranty labor for one year, and the manufacturer warranty covers the wood.
