Walkthrough Before We Start
Shoreline dampness off the Sound can leave a subfloor soft or cupped, so our lead measures moisture and checks thresholds and stairs before any carton opens.

/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Madison clients pick straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal or parquet, with borders and inlays quoted on site. Beach cottages suit a wide straight run, while a house near the green looks sharp in herringbone.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards follow the longest wall, which is the quickest layout, wastes little wood and stretches a narrow room.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short pieces meet at right angles in a zigzag, each one cut and set by hand, a period detail for a formal dining room.
Chevron Hardwood
Each board is mitered at 45 degrees so the rows close in a clean V that flatters a kitchen opening onto the family room.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks on the diagonal pull the eye across the room and make a snug Route 80 kitchen feel wider.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares with alternating grain form a parquet floor, a lasting look for a study or a sunroom.
Basket Weave Parquet
Thin oak strips weave over and under inside a dark border, best kept for the entry hall of an older home.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Straight answers on price, timing and prep for hardwood installation in Madison, from West Wharf to North Madison.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does hardwood installation cost in Madison?
Nail-down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft including nails and underlayment, while nail-and-glue is $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive. Buying oak from us makes the job $5.50/Sq Ft raw or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Salt air and damp worry me. Is hardwood still a good idea near the shore?
Usually it is, once the subfloor is dry and sealed. A moisture reading at the estimate tells us what each room needs.
Will you take out my old carpet?
Yes. Carpet, pad and tack strips leave as part of preparation, and removing an old floor runs about $1.00/Sq Ft.
Can the crew move my furniture?
It can, for a flat $250 covering the whole house. Everything goes back where it was once the oak is in.
When do payments happen?
Labor is paid as the crew arrives, and the wood is paid when cartons are delivered. Booking the estimate online takes $250 off.
How fast can boards reach Madison?
They ship from our warehouse and typically arrive the following day. Material bought through us can cost up to 30% less.
What happens if a problem appears down the road?
Brazil Floors warrants the labor for a year, and the mill stands behind the boards. The people at your door are employees, licensed and insured.
Can I look at samples in my own rooms?
The estimator brings oak samples to your door and sets them across your floor in your own light. That visit is free.
