/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Brazil Floors installs every pattern design and border design in the town of Bristol. Downtown homes get herringbone, and some houses out on Poppasquash Point get chevron or parquet.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Long boards follow a single straight line down the longest wall, a classic look for homes in Bristol Highlands.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short square-ended planks form a zigzag, and in the old homes along Hope Street it looks like it was always there.
Chevron Hardwood
Boards cut on an angle meet in a sharp V that pulls your eye down the room, a bold look out on Poppasquash Point.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards set at 45 degrees run corner to corner, which opens up narrow rooms in the cottages near Silver Creek.
Checkerboard Parquet
Little square blocks flip direction like a chessboard, giving dining rooms near downtown a crisp, orderly grid.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short strips are paired up and turned at right angles to look like a woven basket, a cozy detail for dens in Mount Hope.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does hardwood floor installation cost in Bristol?
Nailing it down is a flat rate of $2.25/Sq Ft, underlayment and nails included. If the wood comes from us, unfinished runs $5.50 and prefinished $6.00.
Will hardwood hold up this close to the harbor?
It can, if the subfloor is dry. We test for moisture before the wood comes in, and for damp rooms close to the water we use engineered planks instead.
Can you match new oak to an old floor?
Usually, yes. We bring samples to match the width, species and grain of the floor you have, then sand both together so the color is even for $2.50/Sq Ft.
Can hardwood go over a concrete slab?
Yes, as a floating floor. Engineered planks sit on a layer of fresh underlayment with glue in each joint, no nails go into the slab, and the labor is $2.00/Sq Ft.
How soon can the crew start?
Your wood leaves our warehouse in Coventry on next-day delivery, and the installers can start once the boxes are in the house. We work Sunday to Sunday.
How much are new oak stair treads?
New oak treads run $60 each. When the stairs are already wood and simply look worn, we refinish them at $50 a step and stain them to blend with the floors.
How does payment work?
The install gets paid when the crew shows up, and material when our truck drops it off. Sanding jobs are split, with half as we start and half at the final coat.
Are your installers certified?
Each installer on the crew is NWFA certified, licensed and insured, and all labor has a one year warranty. The flooring keeps its maker's warranty too.
