Everything leaves our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, and with next-day delivery from Long Branch your stack of boards is stored in the house before work starts.
We arrive with oak, engineered and prefinished samples and rest them on your actual floor, so the color you judge is the one your windows will give it.
Workmanship is guaranteed for one year, and the boards carry their own manufacturer coverage. Employees on our payroll lay every floor, and none of it goes to subcontractors.

Wide hallways in old colonials get long oak strips run in one direction, which makes the house feel larger.

Rain boots and winter salt come in through the mudroom, so the boards there get a harder topcoat.



Labor is $2.25/Sq Ft to nail down, $2.50 to nail and glue with adhesive added, and $2.00 to float engineered planks. Our own boards bring the installed price to $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.

We do. Carpet and pad come out for about $1.00/Sq Ft and leave with our truck.
It does, since $250 comes off the estimate when booked online. We also clear and reset furniture for a flat $250.
Prefinished rooms take a day or two. Unfinished oak sanded and sealed in place can run most of a week.
