/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Brazil Floors installs straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet layouts across Newburyport, with borders and inlays quoted at the visit. Period parlors lean toward herringbone, and a bright new kitchen often prefers chevron.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards follow the longest wall, which cuts waste and lengthens a narrow parlor in a Newburyport townhouse.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short pieces turned ninety degrees and cut one at a time form a zigzag that suits an old dining room.
Chevron Hardwood
Ends mitered at forty-five degrees meet in a neat V down each row, a fit for open plans in recent renovations.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards laid on a diagonal carry the eye corner to corner and make a compact harbor-side kitchen feel bigger.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares with grain alternating direction give the checkered parquet look, a traditional pick for a sunroom.
Basket Weave Parquet
Strips woven over and under, usually edged by a darker border, belong in the older homes within sight of the Custom House Maritime Museum.
/ OUR SERVICES
Hardwood Floor Installers in Newburyport
Our own crew, working from the Natick warehouse, stays with each Newburyport job until the last piece of trim is set. This one involved rolling out underlayment, nailing oak firmly down and squaring up every opening, the same routine we bring to the brick row houses by the harbor and the capes out on Plum Island.
/ VINYL, REFINISHING AND STAIRS
Flooring Services in Newburyport
Alongside hardwood we put in vinyl plank and laminate, resand tired oak, apply stain in the shade you pick, fix damaged strips and build new stair treads.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat should I budget for hardwood in Newburyport?
Our nail-down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft and includes nails and underlayment. Adding the wood makes it $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft for prefinished.
My house near the harbor has wall-to-wall carpet. Is that a problem?
Not at all. The carpet, pad and tack strips come up, soft subfloor spots get secured, and the new oak is nailed to a firm surface.
What works below grade?
Engineered hardwood, floated on padding with glue in the joints. That keeps nails out of the slab and costs $2.00/Sq Ft in labor.
Do you also lay vinyl and laminate?
Yes. Vinyl plank labor is $2.00/Sq Ft and laminate labor is $1.99/Sq Ft, a practical choice for a damp mudroom near the river.
How quickly does flooring arrive?
The next day from the Natick warehouse once the order is placed.
Is there a cheaper way to buy the wood?
Material bought through Brazil Floors can be up to 30% off, and booking your estimate online saves $250.
How is payment handled?
You pay labor as the crew arrives and material as boxes are delivered. A sanding job is paid half at the start and half at the final coat.
What guarantee do I get?
A year on our labor and the maker's coverage on the wood, from a licensed and insured crew.
