One Year Install Warranty
Brazil Floors stands behind the labor for a year, and the mill stands behind the wood. Labor is due when we arrive, boxes when they land.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Brazil Floors installs straight, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet layouts across Stratford, with borders and inlays quoted on site. A Paradise Green dining room often takes herringbone, a Main Street ranch straight lay.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards follow the long wall, which keeps waste low and makes a narrow South End hallway look longer.
Herringbone Hardwood
Herringbone ends meet at right angles in a zigzag, each piece cut to fit. It dresses up an older Stratford dining room.
Chevron Hardwood
Rows mitered at 45 degrees meet in a clean V, a good match for a roomy family room.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks set diagonally pull the eye across the room, so a little Lordship kitchen reads wider.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares with changing grain give a sunroom the parquet look many Stratford families remember.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short oak pieces woven over and under, framed by a dark border, make a handsome hall near the Housatonic River.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Plain answers on price, start dates and prep for new hardwood in Stratford, from Paradise Green to Lordship.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does hardwood floor installation cost in Stratford?
Nail-down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft, and the nails and underlayment are already in the price. Buying the wood through us makes the job $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Is damp air near the water a problem for new oak?
It is something we plan for. The crew meters the subfloor and the air before the boards are opened, and tells you if a vapor barrier or a wait is smarter.
Do you haul away the old floor?
Yes, for about $1.00/Sq Ft, with the debris gone the same day. Your estimator puts the figure on the quote.
How fast can wood reach a South End house?
It leaves our Milford warehouse the next day, and the crew calendar usually gives a start inside a week.
What goes over a concrete slab at Oronoque Village?
Floating engineered planks on foam, since nails cannot enter concrete. That runs $2.00/Sq Ft of labor, while nail-and-glue upstairs is $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive.
Can I save on the wood?
Material through Brazil Floors is up to 30% off, and a booked online estimate takes $250 off. Both appear on your final bill.
When is each payment due?
Labor is paid when the crew arrives and begins. Material is paid when the boxes are delivered to your Stratford door.
Will the crew move furniture?
Yes, for a flat $250 across the whole house, and every piece goes back when the work is done.
/ ALSO SERVING
Hardwood Floors in Nearby Towns
Our Milford warehouse sits just across the Housatonic, so Stratford, Bridgeport, Trumbull, Shelton and Fairfield all get the same crew and one labor rate per Sq Ft.
Bridgeport brick rowhouses and two-families often need a level plywood base before any oak goes in, and we set it first.
Trumbull colonials get solid oak nailed down at $2.25/Sq Ft of labor, nails and underlayment included.
Shelton lower levels sitting on concrete take floating engineered planks laid over foam at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor.
Milford beach cottages and capes pick prefinished boards so the room is usable the moment the crew leaves.
Fairfield colonials get new oak treads at $60 each, cut to land flush with the hall floor upstairs.
