Walkthrough Before We Start
Stone-walled farmhouses seldom sit flat, so our lead takes a level and a moisture meter through your Pomfret rooms, doorways and stairs before oak is ordered.

The people nailing your oak work for Brazil Floors and hold a license, insurance and NWFA certification. A second company never enters the picture.
We measure every room, then stage cartons, trim and reducers by the door in laying order, so the crew installs instead of searching.
Our labor is guaranteed for twelve months, and the oak keeps the manufacturer warranty, so the craftsmanship and the wood each have coverage.

Planks follow the longest wall, which is quick and wastes the least wood, and they make a modest farmhouse parlor look long.

Short boards set in a zigzag and cut one by one, a period detail for a dining room in an old Pomfret house.

Boards mitered at 45 degrees meet in a neat V, which flatters the open kitchens in newer houses at Pomfret Landing.

A diagonal run carries the eye across the room and lets a narrow Bradley Road kitchen feel wider.

Oak squares set with alternating grain, parquet fashion, a classic floor for a library in a Route 169 home.

Short oak pieces woven over and under, usually inside a dark border, as in the front rooms of older houses by the green.



Nail down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft, glue assisted nailing is $2.50 plus adhesive and a floated engineered floor is $2.00. Choosing our oak makes it $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00 prefinished, installed.
Yes, after the low corners are shimmed and loose subfloor is fastened. We chart the slope on the first walkthrough so the price reflects it.
Engineered oak floated over a pad, priced at $2.00/Sq Ft for labor, once the slab tests dry. Solid oak is kept for wood framed floors.
Tear out and disposal cost about $1.00/Sq Ft. Squeaks and spongy plywood are repaired before new boards are nailed.
Request the estimate through our website and $250 comes off the job. Furniture moving is a flat $250.
Labor comes due the morning the crew starts, and material comes due as the boxes are unloaded. Sanding is billed in halves, one at the start and one at the last coat.
A few rooms of sealed oak run one or two days. Raw oak sanded and finished in place needs about a week.
Employees on our payroll, never subcontractors, with a year of labor warranty and the manufacturer warranty on the oak.
