/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet layouts are all available, and borders or inlays are priced at the estimate. A straight lay suits the long hall of a colonial on Main Street, while chevron lifts a formal living room.
Straight Lay Hardwood
The boards run lengthwise down the hall, which saves wood and makes a long entry feel even longer.
Herringbone Hardwood
Herringbone is built piece by piece in a zigzag, and it earns its price in a dining room that gets noticed.
Chevron Hardwood
Each chevron row is cut at 45 degrees and meets the next in a neat V, which looks best in a wide room.
Diagonal Hardwood
Set at an angle to the walls, boards make a small den feel wider and bring energy to a plain room.
Checkerboard Parquet
Squares of oak with alternating grain bring back the parquet that many Fairfield County families remember.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short oak pieces woven over and under, usually edged with a dark band, make a tidy statement in a foyer.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Clear answers about price, start dates and prep for new hardwood in Monroe, from the first phone call to the last sweep of the broom.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does hardwood installation cost in Monroe?
Nail-down labor runs $2.25/Sq Ft with nails and underlayment included in that figure. With our wood included, the package comes to $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Can new hardwood go over my basement slab?
Engineered planks can float over a dry slab after the crew tests the concrete for moisture. Solid nail-down boards need a wood subfloor instead.
Do you pull up the existing flooring?
Yes, for about $1.00/Sq Ft, and everything leaves with us. The charge is written on your estimate in advance.
How quickly can the material arrive?
Boxes leave our Milford warehouse the day after your order. Crew scheduling then decides the install date, often within a week.
What separates nail-down from floating floors?
A nail-down floor is fastened into the subfloor and feels the most solid, while a floating floor rests on foam. Floating costs $2.00/Sq Ft in labor, and nail-and-glue costs $2.50/Sq Ft with adhesive added.
Do you offer any discounts?
Material from Brazil Floors is discounted up to 30%, and booking your estimate online is worth $250 off.
When is payment due?
Labor payment is due as the crew begins, and the material bill as the boxes arrive. Until then you owe nothing.
Will the crew move my furniture?
Yes, we charge a flat $250 for that and set everything back at the end.

Hardwood Floors in Nearby Towns
Trumbull, Newtown, Easton, Shelton and Oxford are all a drive away from Monroe, and the same crew works in each with one flat labor rate.
Trumbull ranches often sit on a plywood base that needs leveling, and hardwood goes down only after that is done.
Newtown farmhouses get solid oak nailed to the subfloor for $2.25/Sq Ft of labor, underlayment included.
Easton homes with a cool slab or a walkout lower level can take engineered boards floated on foam for $2.00/Sq Ft.
Shelton households like prefinished boards because the family can use the room the evening the crew finishes.
Oxford staircases get new oak treads for $60 a step, each one cut to meet the upstairs hall without a gap.
