Walkthrough Before We Start

Remeasure and Material Count
Measuring comes first, room by room, and then boxes, trim and reducers are lined up by the door. Once the crew is out here, the days go to laying and not to errands.

/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Brazil Floors installs straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet patterns in New Ashford, with borders and inlays priced at the house. Old farmhouses favor wide straight boards, and newer builds often ask for chevron.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Rows follow the long wall, the quickest and leanest layout, and it stretches a narrow farmhouse hall.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards turned square to each other in a staggered zigzag, each one fitted by hand. A traditional match for a formal room in an older house.
Chevron Hardwood
Board ends cut at 45 degrees meet in a clean V, a good look for an open kitchen and living room.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks on a diagonal draw the eye across, which widens a small kitchen without moving a wall.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares with the grain alternating give a sunroom its parquet character.
Basket Weave Parquet
Narrow oak pieces woven in a basket pattern, usually edged with a darker band. A fit for the better rooms of century-old houses.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does hardwood installation cost in New Ashford?
Nail-down labor is a flat $2.25/Sq Ft, with nails and underlayment in it. Adding wood from us brings the total to $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
How far does your crew travel to reach New Ashford?
Our base is the Natick shop, and the crew makes the drive to the Berkshires for each job. The in-home estimate is free, and samples come with the estimator.
Will cold winters damage new hardwood?
Wood moves with the seasons in any hill town, so we leave a gap at each wall and check moisture before laying. Steady indoor humidity does the rest.
Can you lay oak over an old farmhouse subfloor?
Yes. We screw down loose boards, add plywood where it is needed and nail the oak into a firm base.
What goes over a concrete slab?
Engineered boards, floated on foam with glued seams, so the slab is never drilled or nailed. Labor for that method is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Do you install vinyl plank and laminate too?
Yes, at $2.00/Sq Ft for vinyl plank labor and $1.99/Sq Ft for laminate. Vinyl is smart for a mudroom that sees boots and snowmelt.
What does a new hardwood stair tread cost?
Each tread is $60 with its riser, nosing, stain and labor. Sound stairs can be refinished for $50 per step.
How does payment work?
Labor is paid when the crew shows up and material when the boxes are delivered. A year of labor warranty applies, and the wood has its maker's warranty.
