Walkthrough Before We Start
Our lead installer starts by walking each room, pressing on the subfloor for give and checking how the thresholds line up, because mill-era framing in Thorndike seldom sits level.

Nail Down Installation
Raw red or white oak is nailed over plywood and then sanded and finished inside your home. It suits the old two-families around Depot Village.

Remeasure and Material Count
The tape measure comes out a second time the morning the crew arrives. Cartons are carried to the right rooms and the trim pieces are staged by each door before the first nail goes in.

One Year Install Warranty
Brazil Floors stands behind the labor for a full year, while the mill that made the planks backs the wood. A flaw in either one has a place to go.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
How the boards run changes how a room feels. We install straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet in Palmer, and borders are priced once we have seen the space. Straight planks calm a long Bondsville parlor, and herringbone gives a front hall some presence.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Planks follow the longest wall, which leaves the least waste and makes a narrow Thorndike hallway read longer.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards laid in a repeating V bring old-house character to a Three Rivers dining room.
Chevron Hardwood
Boards cut at one angle meet along a crisp center line, a neat answer in a remodeled Bondsville kitchen.
Diagonal Hardwood
Diagonal rows pull the eye to the far corner and widen a snug bedroom in a Depot Village apartment.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares turned grain against grain give a sunroom near Union Station an old parquet look.
Basket Weave Parquet
Narrow strips woven over and under, usually edged with a darker border, dress up the front room of an older house in Thorndike.
/ OUR SERVICES
Hardwood Floor Installers in Palmer
Our crew ships out of 9 Cochituate St in Natick and stays with a Palmer project until the last board is down. Here they unrolled underlayment, nailed the oak course by course and squared the doorways, just as they do for the mill houses of Thorndike and the blocks around Union Station.
/ VINYL, REFINISHING AND STAIRS
Flooring Services in Palmer
When the oak is finished, the crew moves on to LVP for a damp cellar, laminate for a spare room, sanding and staining for tired boards, spot repairs or a new set of stairs.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Before you commit, ask about pricing, scheduling and subfloor prep for a Palmer hardwood installation, from Bondsville to the Quaboag River.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat is the price of a hardwood floor in Palmer?
You pay $2.25/Sq Ft for nail down labor, which already includes nails and underlayment. If we also supply the wood, the package runs $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft for prefinished.
Is hardwood possible in an old Thorndike mill house?
Usually, yes. We inspect the subfloor first, fasten or replace any soft areas and then nail the new oak to solid plywood.
What should go on a concrete floor?
Engineered hardwood. It floats over padding with glue in the seams, so nothing is nailed into the slab, and labor is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Do you also put in vinyl plank and laminate?
We do. Laminate labor is $1.99/Sq Ft and vinyl plank labor is $2.00/Sq Ft, and vinyl is the pick for wet basements near the river.
How fast does flooring arrive?
Delivery comes from our Natick warehouse the day after you order, so your boxes are at the house well ahead of the crew.
Can I add new stair treads in the same visit?
Yes. A new hardwood tread is $60 including riser, nosing and stain, and refinishing an existing step is $50.
When do I pay?
Labor is due as the crew arrives and material when the boxes are delivered. Sanding jobs are split, half at the start and half at the last coat.
What if something goes wrong later?
Our labor warranty runs one year and the planks carry the manufacturer warranty. The people on your subfloor are licensed and insured, and each one passed NWFA certification.
