Walkthrough Before We Start
Our lead installer starts with a slow walk through the house, tapping the subfloor for soft spots and noting door heights, which matters in New England homes that have settled for a century.

Hardwood Floor Installation Cost
Installing hardwood in Grafton costs $2.25/Sq Ft in labor for nail down work, and the nails and underlayment are not billed on top. A mill-era house in North Grafton and a newer build in South Grafton get the identical number, written before we start.
Nail Down Installation
Solid oak is nailed to plywood, then sanded and coated in the house. Many owners around Grafton Common pick it to match the boards already in their older rooms.

Licensed, Insured Installation
Nobody on your floor is a subcontractor. Each installer is a Brazil Floors employee with a license, insurance and an NWFA certification behind the work.

Remeasure and Material Count
The tape comes out a second time on install day. Boxes are counted, thresholds are laid out and the nailer starts only after every transition piece is where it belongs.

One Year Install Warranty
Twelve months cover our labor, and the mill that made the boards stands behind the wood, so a flaw in either one has an owner.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Straight lay, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet all go down in Grafton, and borders or inlays are priced at the house. Colonials near the Common tend to ask for herringbone, while newer builds choose straight runs.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Rows follow the longest wall, using the least wood and making a narrow room read longer.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards zigzag at right angles, each piece cut to fit, a traditional pattern for a formal dining room.
Chevron Hardwood
Each row is mitered at 45 degrees to meet in a V, handsome in the open plan kitchens of recent builds.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks laid on the diagonal lead the eye across the floor and widen a compact room.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares alternate their grain in classic parquet, a good fit for a sunroom with afternoon light.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short oak pieces cross over and under in a woven pattern, often outlined by a dark border in an older living room.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Plain answers on price, scheduling and prep for a hardwood floor installation in Grafton, whether you live in North Grafton or near Hassanamessit Woods.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does a hardwood installation cost in Grafton?
Nail down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft, and that figure already holds the nails and underlayment. With material added, unfinished hardwood is $5.50/Sq Ft and prefinished is $6.00/Sq Ft.
Can you replace the carpet in an old mill house?
Yes. The crew lifts the carpet and padding, pulls the tack strips and fixes loose subfloor, then nails new boards over solid plywood.
Which floor works on a concrete slab?
Engineered hardwood, floated on padding with glue in the joints so no nail touches the concrete. Labor for that method is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Do you also lay vinyl plank and laminate?
Both. Vinyl plank is $2.00/Sq Ft in labor and laminate is $1.99/Sq Ft, with vinyl the usual choice for basements and mudrooms.
How soon does material arrive?
Boxes leave the Natick warehouse with next day delivery, so a floor you approve on one day can be on your porch the next.
What are new stair treads?
A hardwood tread is $60 and takes in riser, nosing, stain and labor. Refinishing a sound stair instead costs $50 per step.
How and when do I pay?
Labor is due as the crew arrives and work begins. Material is due when the boxes are delivered, and sanding splits 50% at the start and 50% at the final coat.
What guarantee do I get?
The labor has our one year warranty, and the planks carry the manufacturer's. Our staff are licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
