/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Straight lay, herringbone, chevron, diagonal, parquet and basket weave all go in around Scituate, and borders or inlays are priced on site. Harbor-side capes often ask for herringbone, while renovated kitchens prefer chevron.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards parallel to the long wall give the cheapest, fastest layout and make a narrow cape living room feel longer.
Herringbone Hardwood
A zigzag of short boards set square to each other, each piece cut by hand. It suits a dining room in an older Third Cliff colonial.
Chevron Hardwood
Each row is mitered at 45 degrees to form a crisp V, a good match for the open plans of renovated homes.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards turned 45 degrees to the walls lead the eye along the room, so a small cottage kitchen near Peggotty Beach looks wider.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak blocks turned in alternating directions create the parquet look, handsome in a sunroom with water views.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short pieces interlaced in a basket weave and trimmed with a contrasting border, at home in old houses around Old Scituate Light.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Get plain answers about price, scheduling and prep for hardwood installation in Scituate, from the harbor to Third Cliff.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does hardwood installation cost in Scituate?
For nail-down work the labor rate is $2.25/Sq Ft, and nails plus underlayment are part of it. With boards from us the package runs $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft for prefinished.
Will real hardwood hold up with the harbor so close?
It can be, when the subfloor is dry. We check moisture at the estimate and tell you plainly if vinyl plank would suit a particular room better.
What goes over a slab in a lower level?
Engineered hardwood, floated on underlayment with glued joints so nothing is nailed into the concrete. Labor for that method is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Can you replace carpet in an older cape?
Yes. The crew pulls up carpet and padding, removes the tack strips, repairs weak spots in the subfloor and then installs the new hardwood. Tear-out is about $1.00/Sq Ft.
How fast does the flooring arrive?
Delivery is next day from our Natick warehouse, and the crew plans around that drop-off.
What do new stair treads cost?
A tread is $60 and covers the oak, riser, nosing, stain and labor. Worn but solid treads can instead be refinished for $50 per step.
How is payment split up?
You owe labor on the morning the crew shows up and material at the moment boxes reach the house. Sanding work is 50% at the start and 50% at the final coat.
Is there a warranty on the job?
There is. Labor is covered for one year by us, and the flooring keeps its manufacturer warranty.
