Walkthrough Before We Start
Salt air makes wood swell in August and shrink in February, so our lead installer meters the subfloor, checks each doorway and chooses a board direction before any wood is ordered.

Hardwood Floor Installation Cost
A nail down hardwood floor in Cohasset costs $2.25/Sq Ft for labor, and that covers the nails and underlayment. A cottage by Little Harbor and a house near the Town Common are quoted by the identical rule, so the closing invoice never holds a new charge.
Nail Down Installation
Raw red or white oak is nailed down, then sanded and finished in place. It is a fitting choice for the older homes around the First Parish Meeting House.

Remeasure and Material Count
The first morning starts with a second round of measuring. Cartons are carried to their rooms and transitions are laid out at each opening before the nailer fires.

One Year Install Warranty
A full year of coverage applies to our labor, and the mill's own warranty protects the planks, which means the install and the oak are both covered.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
The way boards run sets the mood of a room. Straight, diagonal, herringbone and chevron are all patterns our installers lay, and you can see them below.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Rows run alongside the longest wall, which trims waste and settles a room with big windows.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards laid in a zigzag give a dining room a woven, period feel.
Chevron Hardwood
Ends are cut at 45 degrees so the rows meet in sharp arrows that draw the eye along a hallway.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks turned diagonal to the walls stretch a compact room and make a small cottage feel wider.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares with alternating grain bring a parquet look to a sunporch facing the water.
Basket Weave Parquet
Pieces woven over and under, usually with a dark border, belong in the grander homes near the Nichols House.
/ OUR SERVICES
Cohasset Hardwood Flooring Installers
Our crew is based at the store and warehouse at 9 Cochituate St in Natick and stays with each Cohasset job until the last sweep. In this home they unrolled underlayment, nailed oak strip after strip and held back a slim gap at the walls for movement in humid months.
/ VINYL, REFINISHING AND STAIRS
More Floor Work Around Cohasset
Once the oak is down, the crew can click vinyl plank into a mudroom, float laminate in a guest room, sand a worn staircase landing, patch a few boards or rebuild the stair treads.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Plain answers on cost, timing and prep for hardwood floor installation in Cohasset, from Little Harbor to the Town Common.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat will hardwood floors cost in Cohasset?
Labor for nail down is $2.25/Sq Ft, with nails and underlayment folded in. Bought through us, unfinished oak installed is $5.50/Sq Ft and prefinished is $6.00/Sq Ft.
Does salt air hurt a hardwood floor?
It moves wood more than inland air does, so we meter the oak and the subfloor and leave expansion gaps. A sealed finish also helps the boards hold steady.
Do you pull the old floor out?
Yes. Tear-out is about $1.00/Sq Ft and the debris goes with us. Moving furniture out and back is a flat $250.
Can solid wood go on a basement slab?
No, but engineered planks can. We float them over underlayment for $2.00/Sq Ft with glued joints, and nothing penetrates the concrete.
When can the job begin?
Material leaves our Natick warehouse for next day delivery, and the installers follow close behind.
Can you work on an older home with uneven floors?
Yes. We check the subfloor, shim or level the low spots and fasten new plywood where the old base is soft.
How does payment work?
Labor is due when the crew arrives and begins, and material is due as the boxes are delivered. A sanding job is half at the start and half at the final coat.
What warranty comes with the install?
A year on our labor, along with the manufacturer's warranty on the wood. The installers are our own licensed, insured, NWFA certified employees.
