/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
Straight lay, herringbone, chevron, diagonal and parquet are all available in Watertown, and borders or inlays are priced at the visit. Older Main Street homes lean straight, while recent builds choose chevron.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Planks run with the longest wall for the least waste, and that stretches the hall of a Route 63 ranch.
Herringbone Hardwood
Short boards meet at right angles in a zigzag, cut and fitted one at a time. Right for a dining room in an Oakville Victorian.
Chevron Hardwood
Rows mitered at 45 degrees join in a tidy V, which flatters the open kitchens in newer Route 262 homes.
Diagonal Hardwood
Planks run on the diagonal to pull the eye across the room and make a compact Watertown den seem wider.
Checkerboard Parquet
Oak squares laid in alternating directions form a parquet panel, a traditional touch for a sunroom near the park.
Basket Weave Parquet
Short oak pieces woven over and under, often bordered. A classic look for the foyer of an older home off Main Street.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateHow much does hardwood installation cost in Watertown?
Nail down labor is $2.25/Sq Ft in Watertown, nails and underlayment included. Adding our wood brings it to $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Can you take out carpet in an Oakville home?
Yes. Carpet, pad and tack strips come out, soft subfloor spots are fastened and oak goes down over sound plywood, with tear-out around $1.00/Sq Ft.
What suits a concrete slab or a damp basement?
Engineered hardwood, floated over padding with glued seams so nothing is nailed into the slab. Labor for that method is $2.00/Sq Ft.
Do you lay vinyl plank or laminate too?
We do. Vinyl plank labor is $2.00/Sq Ft and laminate is $1.99/Sq Ft, and vinyl is the better answer for below grade rooms.
How quickly does the material arrive?
By the next day, trucked straight from the Milford warehouse. Boxes are paid for when they reach your door.
What does a new oak stair tread cost?
A fresh tread is $60 with riser, nosing, stain and labor folded into one price. Stairs already in good shape can be sanded and refinished at $50 per step.
When is payment due?
Labor is due when the crew arrives and work begins, while material is due on delivery. Sanding splits into 50% at the start and 50% when the final coat goes on.
What is covered by your warranty?
Our labor has a one year warranty, and the flooring keeps its manufacturer warranty. Your Watertown crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified.
