Walkthrough Before We Start
Wayland houses run from old farmhouses to newer colonials, and the subfloors vary just as much. The lead installer probes for soft spots, notes doorway heights and picks the row direction before work starts.

One Year Install Warranty
We back our labor for one year, and the mill backs the boards, so you hold a warranty on the workmanship and another on the wood.
/ FLOOR PATTERN DESIGNS
Hardwood Floor Patterns
The way boards run shapes a room. Straight, diagonal, herringbone, chevron and parquet are all shown below, and our installers lay every one.
Straight Lay Hardwood
Boards parallel to the longest wall are the standard layout, quick to lay and sparing with offcuts.
Herringbone Hardwood
A zigzag of short boards gives a dining room a woven, old-fashioned feel.
Chevron Hardwood
Mitered board ends form crisp arrows that draw the eye down a long hallway.
Diagonal Hardwood
Rows laid at 45 degrees widen a narrow bedroom and cover a wall that has drifted off square.
Checkerboard Parquet
Parquet squares, each rotated against the next, form a clean grid beneath a table.
Basket Weave Parquet
Basket weave flips short strips from square to square, a handcrafted detail for a study.
/ OUR SERVICES
Wayland Hardwood Flooring Installers
The crew leaves our Natick store, a few minutes up the road, and stays on your house through the last doorway strip. Here they unrolled underlayment, nailed oak across the plywood and left a slim gap at each wall so the boards can swell in July.
/ VINYL, REFINISHING AND STAIRS
More Floor Work Around Wayland
Once the oak is laid, the same people can put vinyl plank in a lower level, float laminate in a bedroom, refinish worn rooms, stain them, mend boards or build oak stairs.

Hardwood Floor Installation FAQ
Most Wayland owners want three things settled before booking: the price, the timing and what to clear out. Answers are below.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does hardwood installation cost in Wayland, MA?
Our nail down labor rate of $2.25/Sq Ft carries the nails and underlayment with it. If we supply the wood, installed unfinished oak is $5.50/Sq Ft and prefinished is $6.00/Sq Ft.
Do you handle old carpet and padding?
Yes. Removal averages $1.00/Sq Ft, and the debris leaves with the crew. Moving furniture out of the room and back is a flat $250.
Does hardwood need to sit in the house before installing?
For a few days, yes, and the crew checks the moisture in the oak and in the plywood. That patience prevents gaps and cupping later.
What can go on the concrete of a finished lower level?
Engineered planks, floated with glued joints at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor. Solid oak should stay off a slab.
When will the flooring arrive?
Next day, from our warehouse on Cochituate Street in Natick. The crew's own start date is set with you at the free estimate.
Can you do better than another quote?
Buying direct lets us take up to 30% off material ordered through Brazil Floors. Show us a written quote for the same floor and we will go over it with you.
What are the payment terms?
Labor is paid when the crew arrives to start. Material is paid when the boxes are delivered, and sanding is split 50% at the beginning and 50% at the last coat.
Who do I call about a squeak later on?
Labor is warrantied for one year, and the plank maker covers the wood. Call 508-306-4190 and the same licensed, insured crew will take a look.
