Walkthrough Before We Start
Berkshire houses that have stood for generations often have floors that rolled and dipped over time. Our lead installer sights the subfloor, checks each threshold and counts the stair rise before the oak is opened.

Remeasure and Material Count
Install morning starts with another round of measuring. Cartons are counted in the room, reducers are set at every door, and the nailer begins only when nothing is missing.

One Year Install Warranty
A year of coverage stands behind our labor, and the mill warrants the wood for its own part, so a problem with either has an answer.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Berkshire rooms range from compact cottage parlors to long entertaining spaces. The patterns below show what the crew lays, and borders or inlays are priced at the estimate.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Rows follow the longest wall, which cuts waste and lets a modest cottage room feel longer.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards stepped in a zigzag give a formal dining room a woven, period look.
Chevron Hardwood
Plank ends are mitered at 45 degrees so each row meets in a point, drawing the eye down a gallery or hall.
Diagonal Hardwood
Boards turned diagonally make a small bedroom read wider and mask a wall that has gone out of square.
Checkerboard Parquet
Squares of oak turned against their neighbors form a crisp parquet grid for a sitting room or library.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short strips woven over and under give a craftsman touch to a study in an older Berkshire home.

Once the wood is in, the crew can add vinyl plank downstairs, float laminate in a guest room, refinish a hallway, swap a bad board or build new stair treads.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Most Stockbridge callers want to settle cost, timing and which rooms to clear. Straight answers are collected just below.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat is the price of installing hardwood in Stockbridge?
Nailing oak down costs $2.25/Sq Ft in labor, with fasteners and underlayment covered. Add our material and the package is $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
My house is a century old and the floors slope. Is new hardwood realistic?
Yes. We check the subfloor for movement, secure or overlay the weak areas, and write any added prep into the estimate before work starts.
Which hardwood works over a basement slab?
Engineered planks, floated on underlayment and joined with glue. That avoids fasteners in the concrete and costs $2.00/Sq Ft in labor.
Do you also lay vinyl plank or laminate?
Both are available. Labor is $2.00/Sq Ft for vinyl plank and $1.99/Sq Ft for laminate, handy for a guest suite or a lower level.
Can the crew remove my current flooring?
Yes, tear-out is about $1.00/Sq Ft, and moving furniture out of the way is a flat $250.
How soon will the boxes arrive?
One day after the order, shipped from our Natick warehouse. The material charge is due at that delivery.
How is payment split?
The labor charge falls due when the crew arrives. On sanding work it is divided, half when we begin and half at the final coat.
What stands behind the finished floor?
A one year labor warranty from us plus the manufacturer warranty on the wood. The people doing the job are salaried Brazil Floors installers with licensing, insurance and NWFA certification.
