/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
A river-view condo, a 1950s garden apartment and a Cape-style house up the hill each get a different installation. Here is how we choose the board for each of them.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Nailed red oak over a flattened subfloor quiets the groans common in older Coytesville floors.
Herringbone Hardwood
Floating planks over a concrete slab keep footsteps muted for the neighbors below, a point most building boards care about.
Chevron Hardwood
Service elevators and tight lobbies are routine for our crew, which hand-carries every bundle up.
Diagonal Hardwood
Nail-and-glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive suits boards laid on plywood in a split level above Linwood Park.
Checkerboard Parquet
A pale matte prefinished oak makes a one-bedroom facing the river feel larger and brighter than it is.
Basket Weave Parquet
Entry halls take the worst of road salt, so the finish over those first boards is chosen to be hard.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat will new hardwood run me in a Fort Lee apartment or house?
Labor runs $2.25/Sq Ft for nail-down, $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive for nail-and-glue and $2.00/Sq Ft for floating engineered. Supplying the wood ourselves brings installed totals to $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Does my condo board allow hardwood?
Most buildings set underlayment and sound rules, so check yours before ordering. We follow whatever the board requires and plan the floating system around it.
Can you work around my building's service elevator schedule?
Yes, we book the elevator window with your management office and stage materials to match. Our crew keeps hallways protected and clean while boards move up.
Will you take up my old flooring?
Tear-out is about $1.00/Sq Ft and includes hauling it off. Loose subfloor and squeaks get repaired before new boards go down.
Is there a discount if I book the visit through your website?
The website booking knocks $250 off the job. Shifting furniture ourselves is a flat $250 if you prefer.
How many days should I plan for?
Prefinished boards in a couple of rooms typically take one or two days. Raw oak that needs sanding and coating on site stretches to about a week.
Where does the lumber wait before it reaches my door?
It sits in our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, and next-day delivery from Long Branch brings it to you after you order.
Is it your own crew on the job, and what stands behind the work?
Brazil Floors employees, never subcontractors, and they are licensed, insured and NWFA certified. Labor has a one-year warranty and the boards carry the manufacturer's.
