Walkthrough Before We Start
Think of a salty dog drying off in the hall, a long weekend of cousins and a pot of clams boiling over. Hardwood sealed with a tough finish carries on regardless.

Stock sits on the shelves of our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ. Order today, next-day delivery from Long Branch follows, and the boards are waiting in your driveway.
Before you commit, we park at your curb with oak, engineered and prefinished boards and lean them against your own walls. Bay light changes color, and you should see the wood in it.
Brazil Floors guarantees the installation for twelve months, while the mill stands behind the lumber. Nobody else touches your floor, since our payroll crew does all of it.

Narrow strip oak nailed over a firm deck keeps a cottage hallway tight and silent.

A great room over a stilted foundation gets floated planks that shrug off big humidity swings.

Soft sand does not stop the crew, who walk every bundle up from the driveway themselves.

Nail and glue costs $2.50/Sq Ft plus adhesive and suits plywood decks laid under a sunporch.

A bleached, pale oak makes a bay view room feel airy without extra decor.

A hard coat resists the grit that follows people in from the beach all season.



Plan on $2.25/Sq Ft of labor for nail down, $2.50 plus adhesive for nail and glue, or $2.00 to float engineered planks. If we also furnish the lumber, figure $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00 prefinished.
Not much, though we study the plywood deck from below for movement. Loose sheets are screwed down first so the finished boards stay quiet.
Wood swells and shrinks with the seasons, which is why we leave a measured gap at the walls. Engineered planks tolerate the swings well.
Removal of old flooring costs about $1.00/Sq Ft and includes hauling. Tack strips and staples are pulled before the first board.
Booking the estimate on the website knocks $250 off the job. Shifting furniture is a separate flat $250.
A few rooms of prefinished oak usually need a day or two. Raw oak that is sanded and sealed in place stretches to about a week.
It comes from our warehouse in Long Branch, NJ, delivered next day from Long Branch once your order is in.
No. The crew is Brazil Floors employees, licensed, insured and NWFA certified, working under a one year labor warranty with the manufacturer covering the boards.
