Walkthrough Before We Start
Old Willimantic framing sags and shifts with the seasons, so our lead checks the subfloor, each threshold and the stairs before the first nail goes in.

Each installer sent to your Windham home is on our payroll and holds a license, insurance and NWFA certification, never a subcontractor.
Day one the crew measures each room and stacks cartons, trim and reducers by the door, so the install runs without stops.
A full year of labor warranty comes from us, and the manufacturer stands behind the planks, so both the wood and the workmanship are covered.

Boards run parallel to the longest wall for the quickest, lowest waste layout, stretching a narrow Willimantic parlor.

Short boards set at right angles in a zigzag, each piece cut and fitted by hand. Right for a dining room in an old Windham Center house.

Planks mitered at 45 degrees so each pair meets in a clean V. It suits the open plans in newer houses near Route 6.

Boards set on a diagonal pull the eye across the room, which makes a small South Windham kitchen feel wider.

Oak squares with the grain alternating, parquet style, a traditional look for a sunroom in a Windham Center house.

Short oak pieces woven over and under, often framed darker. At home in the older Main Street houses of Willimantic.



In Windham, nail down labor holds at $2.25/Sq Ft, and the nails and underlayment are part of that rate. With our wood added, the package is $5.50/Sq Ft unfinished or $6.00/Sq Ft prefinished.
Yes, after we check the old boards for soft spots and screw down plywood where needed. That prep goes into the estimate as its own line.
A floating engineered floor at $2.00/Sq Ft of labor is what we put over concrete in North Windham. If the slab tests damp, we suggest vinyl plank instead.
Furniture moving is a flat $250 for the house. Pulling out the old flooring in a Windham house comes to about $1.00/Sq Ft.
Next day from our Milford warehouse, and the planks rest in the house a few days before we nail. You settle the material bill as the boxes come in.
A new hardwood tread is $60 each, with the riser, nosing, stain and labor inside that number. We match the color to the new floor below.
Labor is paid when the crew arrives and the work begins. Material is paid separately when the boxes land.
Our labor is covered for a year in Windham, and the board maker adds its own warranty. A gap or lifted plank from our work is fixed at no charge.
