Walkthrough Before We Start
Salt air, sandy sneakers after a Beachway walk and a tracked-in puddle after a bay storm. A well sealed oak floor takes that routine in stride.

Your boxes leave our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, and next-day delivery from Long Branch puts them in the house before the crew shows up.
Samples of oak, hickory and engineered plank come to your door, and we set them on your own subfloor so the shade is judged in your light, not a showroom.
Labor is guaranteed for twelve months and the mill backs the boards separately. Everyone on the crew is on our payroll, licensed and insured.

Former summer cottages often sit on thin plank subfloors, so we add fasteners and level before any oak goes down.

In raised homes built above flood level, floating engineered boards rest on a pad and keep the floor quiet underfoot.

Tight lots and short driveways near the shore mean we hand carry every bundle, and none of it gets left on your lawn.

Over plywood in a Keansburg ranch, nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive keeps boards tight and silent.

A pale prefinished white oak brightens a small living room facing the water without hiding the grain.

Sand blown in from the boardwalk side scuffs soft finishes, so entry rooms get a harder coat.



Labor runs $2.25/Sq Ft nailed down, $2.50 for nail and glue with adhesive extra, and $2.00 for a floating engineered floor. Buying boards from us brings unfinished to $5.50/Sq Ft all in, prefinished to $6.00.
Yes. We check the joists and subfloor at the estimate, then level and fasten before laying anything. Older shore cottages almost always need some of that.
Solid oak with a hard finish does well if humidity is managed, and engineered boards are steadier still. We will tell you which suits your rooms.
Tear-out is roughly $1.00/Sq Ft and the old material goes on our truck. Any soft or noisy spot gets corrected before the first new strip lands.
Moving is a flat $250 for the whole job. Without it, plan to clear the rooms before the crew arrives.
Two rooms of prefinished plank are typically done within a couple of days. If raw oak must be sanded and sealed in the house, plan on about a week.
Booking your estimate online takes $250 off. Samples still come to the house during the visit.
Our own employees do the work, never subcontractors, with a one year labor warranty. The boards carry the manufacturer warranty.
