What goes over a concrete basement slab?
Engineered hardwood, floated over padding with glued joints so the slab is never drilled. Labor for it is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Do you also put in vinyl plank or laminate?
We do. Vinyl plank labor is $2.00/Sq Ft and laminate labor is $1.99/Sq Ft, and vinyl suits basements and entries best.
How fast does the wood show up?
The next day from our Natick warehouse. At the estimate we pick the product and plan the work.
What does an oak stair tread cost?
A new tread is $60, covering riser, nosing, stain and installation. Sound treads can be refinished at $50 per step.
How do payments work?
You pay labor when the crew arrives and material when the boxes land. Sanding is split, half at the start and half at the final coat.
Does the install come with a warranty?
Yes. We warrant labor for one year, and the wood has its manufacturer warranty. The employees on site hold a license, insurance and NWFA certification.
