Cartons leave the warehouse in Long Branch, NJ and travel out with next-day delivery from Long Branch, so a rural address does not slow the schedule.
We carry sample boards out to the property and lay them against your walls, so you pick a tone in the same soft light that fills the house all day.
You get a full year on workmanship, the lumber mill adds its own warranty, and our payroll crew, not a hired-in sub, does the nailing.

Old pine joists get checked from the crawlspace before a single strip of oak is nailed down.

A slab addition takes floating planks over a vapor sheet, with no fasteners driven into the concrete.

Long gravel drives are no trouble for the crew, who walk every carton to the door.

Plywood under a 1970s ranch calls for nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive.

A flat $250 buys a furniture move. Washers, stoves and anything plumbed in remain your job to disconnect.
Prefinished floors need a day or two per couple of rooms. Raw oak with sanding and coats on site takes about a week.
Reserving your estimate online takes $250 off, and boards from us can be up to 30% less.
Twelve months on labor from our own licensed, insured and NWFA certified staff. The lumber comes with the manufacturer warranty.
