/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
A one story bungalow on a small lot, a raised bayfront house and a cottage turned full time home each need a different approach. These cards show how wood is matched to the house.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Old plank subfloors in converted cottages are screwed down tight so new oak sits flat and quiet.
Herringbone Hardwood
A raised bayfront home takes floating engineered planks that tolerate humid air without cupping.
Chevron Hardwood
Narrow lots and steep porch steps are routine for us, since the crew carries every carton inside by hand.
Diagonal Hardwood
Nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive bonds boards to plywood in a raised house.
Checkerboard Parquet
A pale prefinished oak lets a small bayside living room feel wider and hides sand brought in from the shore.
Basket Weave Parquet
Salt air and boat traffic ask for a hard satin finish on boards by the door.
/ OUR SERVICES
Hardwood Installers in Ocean Gate
We nail oak into small bayside bungalows, year round conversions of old summer cottages and raised homes near the water. Each subfloor is tested for flatness, paper rolls out, boards are blind nailed and the vacuum runs before we leave.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does a hardwood floor cost for an Ocean Gate house?
Labor is $2.25/Sq Ft for nail-down, $2.50 for nail and glue with adhesive extra, and $2.00 for floated engineered planks. Boards from us make the installed price $5.50/Sq Ft raw or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Will humid bay air ruin new hardwood?
Wood moves a little, so the planks settle in your home and we leave the right expansion gap. A tough sealed finish blocks moisture from working into the grain.
Can hardwood go on a low ground floor near the water?
Engineered planks floated over a dry base with a vapor barrier are the safe route. Our estimator takes moisture readings before suggesting any wood.
Do you tear out the worn floor?
Yes, for roughly $1.00/Sq Ft with hauling included. Soft or damaged subfloor is repaired before anything new is laid.
Is there a reward for booking the estimate online?
There is: $250 comes off when you reserve online. Moving furniture is a separate flat $250 if you want it done for you.
How many days do the rooms stay torn up?
Two prefinished rooms usually take a couple of days. Unfinished oak that is sanded and sealed on site takes about a week.
Where does my lumber ship from?
It leaves our Long Branch, NJ warehouse and arrives in Ocean Gate with next-day delivery from Long Branch.
Whose crew lays my floor, and what is under warranty?
Our own staff, never subcontractors. You get a one year labor warranty plus the lumber maker's coverage.
