Walkthrough Before We Start
Our lead installer comes first, tapping the subfloor, sighting each doorway and trying the stairs, since salt air and Buzzards Bay damp can leave a Falmouth floor out of flat.

Remeasure and Material Count
The crew re-measures every room on day one, stacks the boxes in the rooms they belong to and lines up the trim by the front door so the nailer keeps moving.

One Year Install Warranty
One year of warranty covers our workmanship, and the mill's warranty covers the boards, so the labor and the lumber each have backing.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
How the boards are arranged matters as much as the species. Falmouth homes can have straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal or parquet layouts, with borders and inlays priced after a look at the room. Broad planks feel natural in a cape living room, and herringbone suits a formal foyer.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards follow the long wall, so the scrap pile is small and a modest den stretches out.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short planks angled in a zigzag lend an old village hallway a handcrafted, period feel.
Chevron Hardwood
Boards cut at mirrored angles meet at a crisp point, ideal for the open plans in newer homes toward East Falmouth.
Diagonal Hardwood
Rows laid corner to corner at 45 degrees pull the eye across and open up a small bedroom.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak blocks set with grain turned in alternate directions create a parquet floor, a classic for a sunroom near Surf Drive.
Basket Weave Parquet
Strips woven under and over with a dark border give a dining room in an older Woods Hole house extra character.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Ask us about price, start dates and floor prep before your hardwood installation in Falmouth, from Woods Hole to North Falmouth.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does hardwood installation cost in Falmouth?
Our nail down crew charges $2.25/Sq Ft for labor, and the nails and underlayment need no separate line. With us supplying the wood, the total is $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Can you redo floors in a Woods Hole summer house?
Yes. Old flooring comes out first at about $1.00/Sq Ft, then we check the base and fix soft spots before any oak goes down.
Does bay humidity affect new hardwood?
It can, which is why we test moisture beforehand and leave an expansion gap at the walls. In a damp lower level, a dehumidifier keeps the planks stable.
Will you work while we are away for the winter?
Yes. Leave a key or lockbox code and the crew manages delivery, installation and cleanup. Labor is paid when the work starts.
How fast does wood reach Falmouth?
It ships from the Natick warehouse the day after you order. Unfinished oak should rest indoors a few days first, but prefinished often goes down sooner.
What about vinyl or laminate in a basement?
Vinyl plank labor is $2.00/Sq Ft and laminate is $1.99/Sq Ft. For anything that gets wet, vinyl is the better choice.
How does payment work?
Labor is paid when the crew arrives, and the material when boxes are dropped off. Sanding is split into two halves, one when work starts and one at the last coat.
Do you stand behind the installation?
Yes, with a year on labor and the maker's warranty on the planks. Each installer is licensed, insured and certified by the NWFA.
