Remeasure and Material Count
The first morning, the crew measures each room and stacks cartons, trim and transitions near the entry, which keeps the install moving without stops to hunt for parts.

One Year Install Warranty
We stand behind our labor for one year, and the boards carry the manufacturer warranty on top, so both the work and the wood have coverage.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Brazil Floors lays straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet patterns in Hudson, and borders are priced during the visit. Older houses near Barnard's Mills suit herringbone, while newer builds ask for plain straight boards.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards follow the longest wall, which wastes the least wood and stretches a narrow Feltonville dining room.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short pieces zigzag at right angles, each one cut by hand, a look that suits a formal room in an old downtown house.
Chevron Hardwood
Mitered at 45 degrees, each row closes into a V, which flatters the open layouts in newer subdivisions.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks set on the diagonal pull your eye across the room and make a snug den feel larger.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares with the grain turned in alternate directions bring parquet back to a sunroom with plenty of glass.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short oak lengths are woven over and under and finished with a dark border, a classic for homes near The Mills.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Plain answers on cost, scheduling and prep for hardwood floor installation in Hudson, from the Assabet River to Wood Square.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does hardwood floor installation cost in Hudson?
Nail-down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft, with nails and underlayment inside that figure. Buying the boards through us brings the full package to $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished oak or $6.00/Sq Ft for prefinished.
Can you pull up carpet in an old Hudson house and put in oak?
Yes. We lift the carpet, pad and tack strips, tear-out is about $1.00/Sq Ft, and any weak plywood is screwed down before the oak goes on.
What can go on a basement slab near the river?
Engineered hardwood, floated over a pad with glued joints so nothing is nailed into concrete. Labor for that method is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Do you also do vinyl plank or laminate?
We do, both for the labor price of $2.00/Sq Ft for vinyl and $1.99/Sq Ft for laminate, which makes sense for a mudroom or a rental unit.
How soon does the material arrive?
Flooring ships from our Natick warehouse the next day after you order, so you are not waiting weeks on a shipment.
Can the old stairs get new treads?
A new hardwood tread, riser, nosing and stain comes to $60 per tread. Sound stairs can be refinished instead for $50 per step.
When do I pay?
Labor is due the day the crew shows up, material when the boxes land at your door. Sanding jobs are split in half, at the start and at the last coat.
Is the work guaranteed?
One year on our labor, plus the maker's warranty on the planks. Licensing, insurance and NWFA certification cover every installer who comes to Hudson.
