Walkthrough Before We Start
Our lead installer starts with a slow walk through the rooms. He listens for squeaks, checks the subfloor for soft areas and notes door clearances before choosing the direction of the boards.

Licensed, Insured Installation
The people in your house work for us directly, and each holds a license, insurance and an NWFA certificate. We trained them, so we answer for every row they lay.

Remeasure and Material Count
On the morning of the install the tape comes out once more. Boxes are counted, thresholds are laid out at every opening and the nailer stays quiet until that is done.

One Year Install Warranty
Workmanship is covered for twelve months. The mill separately guarantees the planks, so the floor has protection on both sides.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
We lay hardwood in straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet layouts across Braintree, with borders and inlays priced at the house. Herringbone belongs in a traditional dining room; chevron gives a newer kitchen some movement.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Rows that follow the longest wall waste the least wood and make a compact South Braintree living room look longer.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short pieces zigzag at right angles, each cut separately, for a dining room that wants a period feel.
Chevron Hardwood
Mitered at 45 degrees, the boards form a crisp V that suits the open plans of a renovated ranch.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards set on the diagonal draw the eye across a small room, so a Cochato River cottage feels wider.
Checkerboard Parquet
Squares of oak turned in alternating directions give a sunroom the old parquet character.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short oak pieces woven over and under, often framed in a border, fit a formal room in an older Colonial.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does hardwood installation cost in Braintree?
Nailed-down hardwood is $2.25/Sq Ft in labor, and the nails and underlayment are covered. Material and labor together land at $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished oak or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Can you install hardwood in a 1950s cape?
Yes. We remove the carpet and padding, pull the tack strips, secure any weak subfloor and then fasten new hardwood onto solid plywood.
What goes over a concrete basement floor?
Engineered hardwood is the right pick. It floats over foam with glued seams, so nothing is nailed into the slab, and labor is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Do you also lay vinyl plank or laminate?
We do, at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor for vinyl and $1.99/Sq Ft for laminate. Vinyl is a strong choice for basements and baths near the water.
How fast does the flooring arrive?
The day after you order. Our trucks leave the Natick warehouse daily, and the drive to Braintree is short, so the crew starts soon after.
How much are new oak stair treads?
A new oak tread costs $60. Sound stairs that only look tired can be sanded and refinished for $50 per step.
What is the payment schedule?
Labor is paid when the crew arrives, and material is paid on delivery. Sanding jobs are split 50% at the start and 50% at the last coat.
Does the installation come with a warranty?
Yes. We guarantee labor for one year and the manufacturer covers the wood. Each installer is licensed, insured and NWFA certified.

Hardwood Floors in Nearby Towns
Quincy, Weymouth, Holbrook, Randolph and Milton households also hire our nailers, and each one is billed the same rate per Sq Ft.
Quincy multi-family homes and capes get nailed oak at $2.25/Sq Ft of labor, with underlayment and nails inside the number.
Weymouth houses with worn plywood get a repaired base first, then fresh solid oak is fastened down.
Finished lower levels in Holbrook sit on concrete, so engineered boards float over them at $2.00/Sq Ft for labor.
Randolph families like prefinished hardwood because the boards arrive sealed and the rooms are usable that night.
Milton colonials trade scuffed steps for new oak treads at $60 each, cut to meet the hall floor.
