Your order is packed at our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ. Once you approve the order, next-day delivery from Long Branch brings the wood to your garage before the crew arrives.
Our estimator lays oak, engineered and prefinished samples across your floor, so you can see the real color against your trim and the daylight in your own rooms.
Our workmanship carries a one year warranty and the wood keeps its manufacturer coverage. The installers are Brazil Floors employees, and no subcontractor ever touches your floor.

Colonials from the 1960s and 70s usually have a plywood base, which holds nailed oak flat and quiet.

Long driveways and steep entries are routine, since our crew hand carries every bundle into the room.

Where a plywood floor has a slight flex, nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive keeps boards from shifting.

Nailing oak down is $2.25/Sq Ft of labor, adding glue moves it to $2.50 plus adhesive, and a floated engineered install is $2.00. Supplying the wood ourselves brings the job to $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00 prefinished.
Yes, once the carpet and pad come up and we check the plywood for loose spots. Floors of that age are usually flat and take nailed oak very well.

Our crew will do it for a flat $250. Many owners clear one room and let us take care of the rest.
Booking the estimate on our website takes $250 off the project.
A couple of prefinished rooms generally need one or two days, and raw oak sanded and coated on site takes nearly a week.
