Licensed, Insured Installation
Everyone who walks into your house works for us and carries a license, insurance and NWFA certification. Nobody is farmed out, so responsibility stays with Brazil Floors until the last room is swept.

Remeasure and Material Count
The first visit begins with a tape measure in each room. Cartons, trim pieces and reducers are stacked inside the door, which keeps the crew moving once the boards start going down.

One Year Install Warranty
One year of labor warranty comes from us directly, and the manufacturer stands behind the oak or engineered planks separately, so both the workmanship and the wood have coverage.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Brazil Floors installs straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet layouts around Bloomfield, with borders and inlays priced at the visit. Older colonials favor herringbone, while post-war ranches mostly take a straight lay.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards follow the long wall, which is the fastest layout and wastes the least wood. A narrow ranch living room looks longer for it.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards alternate at right angles in a zigzag, each one cut by hand. It suits a formal dining room in a traditional colonial.
Chevron Hardwood
Each board is mitered at 45 degrees so the rows meet in a clean V. Open kitchens that flow into the den show it off.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks run diagonally across the room to pull the eye outward. That trick makes a compact kitchen feel bigger.
Checkerboard Parquet
Small oak squares turn their grain back and forth in a parquet layout. It is a time-tested look in a den or a sunroom.
Basket Weave Parquet
Narrow oak pieces weave over and under each other, usually with a darker border around the edge. It belongs in the front rooms of older houses.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does hardwood flooring installation cost in Bloomfield?
Labor is $2.25/Sq Ft for nail-down with nails and underlayment included, $2.50/Sq Ft for nail-and-glue plus adhesive, and $2.00/Sq Ft for floating engineered planks. Take the wood from us as well and the installed package runs $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft for prefinished.
Can you put hardwood where I now have wall-to-wall carpet?
Yes, and many Bloomfield ranches have decent plywood under the carpet. We pull the carpet, pad and staples, correct weak spots and nail the new oak down.
What does it cost to remove the old floor and move furniture?
Old flooring comes out at about $1.00/Sq Ft, and furniture moving is a flat $250. Both appear on the written estimate.
How quickly can the wood be delivered?
Boxes ship from the Milford warehouse the next day after you choose. We schedule the crew around that delivery.
When do I need to pay?
Labor is due when the crew arrives, and material is due when the boxes reach your door. If we sand on site, that part is paid half at the start and half after the last coat.
Which holds up better with kids, prefinished or unfinished?
Prefinished has a tough factory coat and goes in fast, which suits a busy household. Unfinished is sanded flat after install and sealed as one surface, so it takes longer but gives a seamless look.
Do you use subcontractors for the install?
No. Licensed, insured, NWFA certified Brazil Floors employees do every installation.
Are there any ways to lower the price?
Material through Brazil Floors can be up to 30% off, and booking your estimate online takes $250 off. The visit itself is free, with samples at your door.
