Licensed, Insured Installation
Stock leaves our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, and next-day delivery from Long Branch drops it at the curb in Highland Park, so framing and prep are never idle waiting on cartons.

Remeasure and Material Count
We carry oak, maple and engineered samples to your door and lay them across your own subfloor beside your baseboards. A parlor with north light and a kitchen facing south need different tones.

/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
A tall foursquare, a duplex with two apartments and a small condo off Raritan Avenue are all built differently. Here is how we pair boards with each building.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Original joists in a foursquare often move with age, so we fasten the subfloor before any oak is set.
Herringbone Hardwood
Condo units take engineered planks laid over an acoustic pad that softens footsteps for neighbors below.
Chevron Hardwood
Narrow stairwells in a duplex are no obstacle, since our crew hauls each carton up by hand.
Diagonal Hardwood
Plywood underlayment in a renovated attic suite gets nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive.
Checkerboard Parquet
A pale prefinished maple opens up a dark parlor in a house without much south light.
Basket Weave Parquet
A satin polyurethane masks the scuffs that move in with roommates, bikes and rolling chairs.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat would hardwood installation cost for my Highland Park house?
Three labor rates apply: $2.25/Sq Ft to nail down, $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive for nail and glue, and $2.00/Sq Ft to float engineered planks. With our wood in the mix, you land at $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
My foursquare floors creak and slope. Can oak still go in?
Yes, after we flatten the low areas and screw down loose subfloor. A house this age settles, so we plan for it on the first visit.
Is hardwood allowed in a condo?
Usually, with floating engineered planks and an approved sound pad at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor. Share the building rules with us and we build the plan around them.
What happens to the old carpet?
It comes out for about $1.00/Sq Ft and leaves with our truck. Soft spots and noisy boards are corrected before new wood goes on.
How do I take $250 off?
Reserve your estimate on our website. Furniture moving is a separate flat $250 if you want us to do the lifting.
How many days should I allow?
A couple of prefinished rooms wrap in a day or two. Unfinished oak that is sanded and coated in your home keeps us there nearer a week.
Where will the boards come from?
Our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, with next-day delivery from Long Branch once your order is placed.
Who does the install and what is warrantied?
Our employees, never subcontractors. Labor has a one year warranty and the wood carries the manufacturer's.
