Nail Down Installation
Nail down, $2.25/Sq Ft. We nail solid oak through to a plywood subfloor, and underlayment and fasteners are already in that price.

One Year Install Warranty
Brazil Floors stands behind the installation for a year, and whoever milled your hardwood adds a separate warranty on the wood.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Not every room wants straight rows. Herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet are all options, and we can frame a dining room with a border.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Planks following the longest wall are what most North Shore homes have, and the layout wastes the least wood.
Herringbone Hardwood
In herringbone, short planks zigzag across the room, each end tight to the next one's side.
Chevron Hardwood
Chevron planks have angled ends, so the rows come together in sharp points down a hall.
Diagonal Hardwood
Run on the diagonal, the rows make a small bedroom on Liberty Street feel roomier and take attention off crooked plaster walls.
Checkerboard Parquet
Parquet is a grid of small wood blocks, each one turned against its neighbor, and it adds character to a formal dining room.
Basket Weave Parquet
Basketweave puts short pieces in pairs that change direction, the same look as a woven basket, for an office or den.
/ OUR SERVICES
Middleton's Local Hardwood Installation Crew
Middleton has everything from First Period homes near the Thomas Fuller House to big colonials in the newer neighborhoods off Peabody Street, and our installers handle each one from bare plywood up to the trim. In this room the crew laid underlayment and nailed oak in staggered rows so no two seams line up.
/ VINYL, REFINISHING AND STAIRS
Other Floor Services in Middleton
Oak floors are our bread and butter, but this crew also lays vinyl plank in basements, puts laminate into rentals, refinishes and stains older hardwood, fixes damage and installs stair treads.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Before booking, folks near the Flint Public Library ask what it'll cost by the foot, how long the job runs and what to clear out. Here are the answers.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat will hardwood installation cost me in Middleton?
Our labor to nail down hardwood is $2.25/Sq Ft, and the price includes underlayment and nails. When we bring the oak too, it's $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished, installed, or $6.00/Sq Ft for prefinished.
Does my older house need subfloor work before hardwood?
Sometimes. Older colonials around Main Street can have dips or squeaky spots, so we go over the subfloor with a long level and a moisture meter and fix anything soft first.
Can the new hardwood run into my kitchen?
It can, and many Middleton families do it. We look at how much splashing the sink and dishwasher area sees, and for a really wet kitchen we might suggest engineered planks.
Who pulls up the carpet and pad?
We do. Tearing out the old carpet and pad and hauling it off costs about $1.00/Sq Ft. Need the couch and beds moved out and back in? That's a flat $250.
Can hardwood be installed over a basement slab?
Not solid hardwood. For concrete, the answer is engineered hardwood on a foam pad, $2.00/Sq Ft in labor, every joint glued and no nails going into the slab.
How quickly will the wood arrive?
Usually the next day, on our truck from the Coventry warehouse. Solid hardwood then rests inside the house for several days to adjust before we install it.
Is the whole hardwood bill due on day one?
You pay for installation when our crew pulls into the driveway, and for the material when it's delivered. The in-home estimate and the samples are free.
What warranty do I get with a new hardwood floor?
Brazil Floors guarantees the installation work for twelve months; separately, the maker's own warranty covers the wood. If someone in town gave you a cheaper written quote, we'll come in under it.
