/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
A Hackensack block can hold a 1920s colonial, a duplex converted decades ago and a garden apartment, and each calls for its own installation method. This is how we match wood to house.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Strip oak goes over a re-fastened subfloor in a Hackensack colonial, which quiets the squeaks that older joists develop.
Herringbone Hardwood
Floating engineered boards sit over concrete in garden apartments, with a pad that mutes sound for the neighbor below.
Chevron Hardwood
Stoops and second-floor units are routine here, since our crew walks each bundle up and stacks it where the room needs it.
Diagonal Hardwood
A raised ranch with plywood underneath takes nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive, which keeps the boards from drifting.
Checkerboard Parquet
Hospital shift workers sleep in the day, so we plan quiet nailing windows when a bedroom floor is being replaced.
Basket Weave Parquet
A walnut-toned prefinished plank gives a Main Street area townhouse an upscale look without any sanding on site.

My Hackensack two-family has a sagging second floor. Can new boards go on top?
Usually yes, once we fasten the sagging spots and shim the low areas. We read the floor at your free estimate and tell you what it needs.
Can hardwood go into a garden apartment unit?
Engineered planks floated over a sound-dampening pad are the common choice, at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor. Check the association rules on underlayment before we start.
Do you pull up the old carpet or flooring?
We do, at about $1.00/Sq Ft, and the debris leaves with us. Soft spots and noisy boards are dealt with before anything new is laid.
Do you handle moving furniture?
Moving is a flat $250, which spares your back. A $250 credit applies if you reserve the estimate through the website.
How many days will a room take?
A pair of prefinished rooms generally finishes in one or two days. Raw oak sanded and finished in place stretches closer to a week.
Where does the wood come from?
It ships from our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, with next-day delivery from Long Branch once the order is placed.
Who works in my home, and what warranty applies?
Brazil Floors employees only, never subcontractors, backed by one year on labor and the maker's warranty on the wood.
