Walkthrough Before We Start
Salt tracked in from a January sidewalk, a backpack dropped at the door and a rug dragged across the dining room. A well-sealed oak floor takes the whole routine.

A year of labor warranty comes with every floor, and the boards keep the maker coverage. Employees of Brazil Floors do the install, with no subcontracting.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
A 1930s colonial with plaster walls, a postwar cape and a split-level with a finished lower floor do not share a method. These jobs show how we fit the wood to the house.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Colonial living rooms have long, clear runs, so strips are laid lengthwise and the nails stay out of sight.
Herringbone Hardwood
A finished basement over concrete gets engineered plank floated on a quiet pad.
Chevron Hardwood
Boards rest in the hall for a day to settle to your indoor humidity before installation begins.
Diagonal Hardwood
Nail and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive keeps oak steady over the plywood in a rebuilt second floor.
Checkerboard Parquet
A light natural prefinished plank brightens a small dining room, a popular choice for cape layouts.
Basket Weave Parquet
A busy street entry means grit on the foyer boards, so a satin finish that hides tiny scratches is a smart pick.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat will a hardwood floor cost in River Edge?
Labor is $2.25/Sq Ft to nail down, $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive for nail and glue, and $2.00/Sq Ft to float engineered plank. Using our boards, the complete price is $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft for prefinished.
There may be oak under my carpet. Is it worth saving?
Often yes. We lift a corner at the estimate, and if the strips are sound, refinishing can cost far less than a new floor.
Can I put real wood in a finished basement?
Engineered plank floated over a pad is the usual answer, at $2.00/Sq Ft labor. A moisture test of the slab comes first.
How do you handle old floors that slope?
Low spots are leveled and loose subfloor is fastened before any board goes down. Houses of this age settle, so we plan for it.
Is there a saving for reserving online?
Yes, $250 comes off when you book the estimate on our website. Furniture moving is a flat $250 service if you want the rooms cleared.
How long should I expect the work to take?
Prefinished rooms are usually done in two to four days. Raw oak sanded and sealed on site runs toward a week.
Where do the boards come from?
They ship from our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, with next-day delivery from Long Branch after your order.
Who works in my home, and what is the warranty?
Employees on our payroll, never subcontractors. Labor is warranted for one year, with the manufacturer covering the boards.
