Hardwood flooring is a timeless upgrade for any home, but in a fast-growing city like San Antonio, securing accurate costs, reliable crews, and quality materials can feel like a full-time job. CountBricks changes that narrative. By merging local construction expertise with proprietary AI estimation technology, we simplify every step—from blueprint takeoff to final walk-through—so homeowners, builders, and remodelers get flawless results without budget overruns.
Central Texas offers a unique mix of warm summers and mild winters. Premium hardwood species such as white oak and hickory stand up well to San Antonio’s humidity swings when properly acclimated. CountBricks algorithms automatically add acclimation time into your project schedule, preventing cupping and warping down the road.
Whether you’re renovating a historic bungalow near the Pearl or building new in Stone Oak, hardwood floors instantly elevate resale value. CountBricks clients report • Faster listing times • Higher buyer offers • Reduced staging costs
Solid hardwood paired with modern underlayment improves thermal performance, reducing HVAC strain during South Texas heat waves. Our AI takeoffs specify the exact underlayment R-value required for each room, promoting year-round comfort.
Any seasoned contractor knows hardwood comes with variables: moisture content, subfloor conditions, supply chain delays. CountBricks addresses the most common pain points head-on:
• Unpredictable material pricing: We sync live pricing feeds into every estimate, so your quote reflects today’s market—not last quarter’s brochures.
• Labor scheduling conflicts: Our algorithm analyzes crew calendars in real time, assigning certified installers to keep your timeline intact.
• Measurement errors: Laser-accurate blueprint takeoffs eliminate costly over-ordering or emergency lumber runs.
Discuss room dimensions, stain preferences, or demolition needs in a natural conversation. CountBricks captures the dialogue, converts it into line-item tasks, and applies regional cost indexes for San Antonio instantly.
Every quote arrives with side-by-side comparisons: • Good—Engineered oak • Better—Solid white oak • Best—Reclaimed longleaf pine. Homeowners can balance aesthetics and budget with confidence.

Because we leverage real-time data, numbers fluctuate slightly. As of this week, a standard 500 sq ft installation breaks down as follows:
• Materials (3¼″ solid oak, select grade): $5.40–$5.75 per sq ft
• Underlayment and adhesives: $0.80–$1.05 per sq ft
• Labor—tear-out, prep, install, finish: $3.25–$3.75 per sq ft
Total turnkey range: $9.45–$10.55 per sq ft. Your personalized estimate on CountBricks.com/services factors in layout complexity, pattern inlays, and stair nosing.

The Ramirez family owned a 1990s two-story in Stone Oak with dated carpet on the main level. Their goals were simple: durability for two energetic dogs, a light stain to brighten the interior, and zero schedule overruns because of an upcoming graduation party.
During a quick phone call, our estimator captured every detail—from square footage to preferred plank width. CountBricks AI translated that conversation into a 14-line proposal, complete with live oak pricing, labor hours, and a three-day installation window.
• Day 1: Crew removed carpet, repaired subfloor dips, and deployed dehumidifiers.
• Day 2: 5″ select white oak installed with moisture-cured adhesive, followed by first polyurethane coat.
• Day 3: Light buff, two additional coats, and full clean-up. The final inspection passed on the first walk-through.
The project closed 4% under the original estimate because our live pricing feed flagged a short-term vendor discount. The Ramirezes hosted 60 guests on brand-new floors just 48 hours later—without a single squeak or scuff.
