One Year Install Warranty
You get one year of coverage on our labor, plus the factory warranty printed on the boxes. Both are in play if a board ever lifts.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Across Canton we install straight lay, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet, with borders and inlays priced at the house. Collinsville period homes tend toward herringbone, while newer builds choose chevron.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Planks laid parallel to the long wall waste the least material and give a ranch a longer, wider feel.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards are zigzagged at right angles and cut one by one, a period look for a Collinsville dining room.
Chevron Hardwood
Mitered at 45 degrees, each row closes in a neat V. It flatters open layouts in the newer houses.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards on the diagonal sweep the eye across a room and open up a compact kitchen.
Checkerboard Parquet
Squares of oak turned grain against grain, parquet style, are a heritage choice for a sunroom with Farmington Valley light.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short oak lengths woven over and under, usually edged in a darker border, a classic touch for Canton Center colonials.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Straight answers about cost, start dates and preparation for a Canton hardwood floor, from Collinsville to Canton Center.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat is the cost of a hardwood floor in Canton?
Nail down labor holds at $2.25/Sq Ft with nails and underlayment inside the number. Adding our wood brings the project to $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
We are replacing carpet in an old Collinsville house. Is that doable?
Absolutely. The crew pulls carpet, pad and tack strips, fastens any spongy subfloor and nails the oak over solid plywood.
What goes over a concrete slab?
Engineered hardwood that floats. Glue in each seam holds the planks together and no nails touch the slab, at $2.00/Sq Ft for labor.
Do you also lay vinyl plank and laminate?
Both. Vinyl plank labor is $2.00/Sq Ft and laminate labor is $1.99/Sq Ft, and vinyl wins in baths and basements near the river.
How quickly does the flooring show up?
Next day, loaded at our Milford warehouse. After that the crew can get going within days.
What does a new oak stair tread cost?
One tread is $60, which already covers the riser, nosing and stain. Existing wood stairs can be redone for $50 per step.
How is the job paid for?
Labor is due as the work begins and the material when boxes are carried in. On sanding work, one half is paid at the start and the other half after the last coat.
Is the installation under warranty?
Yes. Labor has a one year warranty, the planks carry the maker warranty, and Brazil Floors installers hold a license, insurance and NWFA certification.
