Walkthrough Before We Start
Commuters tromping in from the Raritan Valley Line platform, a toddler with a toy truck and a retriever home from the river path. A well coated oak floor handles every one of them.

/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
A tall Victorian with old pine underneath, a post-war ranch and a downtown apartment each call for a different method. The wood is chosen to suit the framing underneath, house by house.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Old pine decking beneath a Victorian is screwed down first, so the new oak does not inherit the creaks.
Herringbone Hardwood
Floating engineered planks suit an upstairs apartment, because a foam pad softens the sound that drifts to the shop below.
Chevron Hardwood
Narrow side yards between twins mean the crew shoulders each bundle indoors instead of rolling a cart.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards laid over plywood in a ranch are secured with nails and glue at $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive.
Checkerboard Parquet
Pale prefinished white oak lightens a dim front room, where old windows let in only a little daylight.
Basket Weave Parquet
Winter salt walked in from the sidewalk eats weak coatings, so entry boards get a tougher finish.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat do you charge for hardwood floors in Somerville?
Our nail down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft, nail and glue costs $2.50 plus adhesive, and a floated engineered install is $2.00. With boards from us, count on $5.50/Sq Ft for unfinished oak or $6.00 for prefinished.
My Victorian off Main Street has squeaky old pine under the carpet. Can oak go over it?
Often yes, after we screw down the pine and shim low spots. We probe the decking at the estimate and tell you what it needs.
Is a wood floor realistic in an apartment over a shop?
A floated engineered floor on a sound pad is the usual choice, priced at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor. We confirm building hours and sound limits before work starts.
Will you haul away the carpet?
Yes, removal of old flooring is about $1.00/Sq Ft and disposal is on us. Any rotten spots are fixed before oak touches the deck.
Does moving furniture cost extra?
The flat fee is $250 if you want us to clear the rooms. Skip it and we work around whatever you leave.
How long should I expect to be out of the room?
Prefinished oak in a room or two takes a day or two. Unfinished oak sanded and coated in your house needs about a week.
Where does the lumber come from?
From our own warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, with next-day delivery from Long Branch after you order.
Is the crew licensed and what is warranted?
Yes, the crew is licensed and insured, and employees do the work rather than subcontractors. Labor carries a twelve-month guarantee from us, and the boards keep the maker's own coverage.
