Brazil Floors sends only its own employees, no subcontractors, and each carries a license, insurance and NWFA certification.
Day one starts with a final measure. Cartons go to their rooms, and reducers and trim wait by the door, so the nailer works without a break.

Planks that follow the long wall use the least wood and give a tight room extra length.

A zigzag of short boards lends a Victorian hallway a hand built, period quality.

Boards trimmed at matching angles join in a sharp point, apt for a newer open plan near Ski Butternut.

A 45 degree layout leads the eye across the floor and opens up a small bedroom.

Oak squares with grain turning every other block, parquet style, bring an old time pattern to a sunroom.

Short oak strips woven over and under, with a darker border, add character to a dining room in an older house in Van Deusenville.

$60 per tread, riser, nosing and stain included, while refinishing sound stairs is $50 a step.
Labor is due when the crew shows up to start, and material when boxes arrive. Where sanding is involved, half is billed at the start and the rest once the final coat is on.
A one year labor warranty from us and the product warranty from the manufacturer. Everyone on the crew holds a license, insurance and an NWFA certification.
