Walkthrough Before We Start
A visit comes first. Our lead installer tests the subfloor for give, checks the height at each doorway and decides which way the boards should run, which matters in houses that settled long ago.

You will never meet a subcontractor. Our employees carry a license, insurance and NWFA certification and are the ones working on your floor.
On the morning we start, everything is re-measured. Cartons go into the rooms they belong in and the transitions are laid out before the nailer is switched on.
We cover our own workmanship for a year, and the mill stands behind the lumber, so the floor has two layers of protection.

Planks parallel to the longest wall create the least scrap and add visual length to a narrow room.

Pieces cut into a zigzag give a hallway a handcrafted, period flavor.

Boards mitered at matching angles meet in a neat point, which flatters the open plans in newer houses in Fiskdale.

A diagonal run at 45 degrees draws the eye toward the corner and opens up a small bedroom.

Oak squares with alternating grain give an entry the look of old parquet.

Over and under weaving with a contrasting border suits a formal dining room.



Nail down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft, with nails and underlayment inside the price. Buying the oak from us makes the package $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Usually. The crew checks the subfloor, shims or fastens where needed and nails the oak down once the base is sound.
Engineered hardwood, floated on underlayment with glue along the edges so nothing is driven into concrete. The labor is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Yes. Setting vinyl plank costs $2.00/Sq Ft and setting laminate costs $1.99/Sq Ft, both for labor.
We deliver the day after you order, loading from the Natick warehouse.
A new tread is $60, and refinishing a sound one is $50 per step.
Labor is paid when the crew arrives. Materials are paid when boxes are delivered, and sanding is split between the first day and the last coat.
