Your cartons are packed at our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, and next-day delivery from Long Branch gets them to the curb, so installers do not stand around waiting.
Oak, hickory and engineered pieces ride to your apartment with our estimator, who holds them against your own walls and window light before you decide.
A twelve month labor warranty covers each floor, and the maker backs the boards. Everyone on site is on our payroll, never a subcontractor.

Original pine subfloors in older Harrison rowhouses are refastened first, and the new oak then lies flat and quiet.

Engineered planks float over the concrete of a unit near the PATH station, adding warmth without a heavy build up.

Narrow stoops and tight stairwells do not stop us, because each carton is carried up by hand.

Nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive suits boards laid over plywood in a second floor two family.

A rear mudroom entry takes hickory with a hard finish that forgives wet boots and rock salt.

Radiator heat dries wood out all winter, so we leave an expansion gap along the walls.



Labor per square foot is $2.25 for nail down, $2.50 plus adhesive for nail and glue and $2.00 for a floated engineered floor. Our own boards bring the installed total to $5.50 unfinished or $6.00 prefinished.
It can, once the low spots are built up and loose deck is fastened. We read the slope at the first visit and explain what it will take.

Scheduling the estimate online removes $250 from the total. If you prefer to skip the lifting, furniture moving is a flat $250.
A few rooms of factory finished boards take a day or two. Oak that is sanded and coated after it goes down needs the better part of a week.
The boxes are packed in Long Branch, NJ and reach your building via next-day delivery, usually within a day or two of your order.
Licensed, insured employees of ours, never subcontractors. Our labor is warranted for twelve months, and the boards ship with the maker's own warranty.
