Hardwood Floor Scratch Repair in Keswick

A single scratch on your hardwood floor can be incredibly distracting. It's often the first thing your eye goes to, taking away from the overall warmth of your room. Many people assume the only solution is a full, disruptive, and expensive floor refinishing project. We offer a better way. As a local Keswick contractor, we focus on the fine details, providing precise scratch repair that restores your floor's integrity without turning your home into a construction zone.

Our Detailed Scratch Repair Process

Every hardwood floor and every scratch is unique. That's why we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Our process begins with a careful in-person assessment. We examine the depth of the scratch, the type of wood, and the specific finish that was used. Is it a light surface scuff that has only affected the top polyurethane layer, or a deep gouge that has penetrated the wood stain itself? Knowing the precise nature of the damage is critical to a flawless repair.

For minor surface scratches, we can often meticulously buff the area and re-apply a matching top coat to make it vanish. For deeper damage, the process is more involved but just as precise. It may involve carefully cleaning the gouge, applying a matching wood filler, and then expertly feathering in custom-mixed stain to match the surrounding grain. The final step is always blending the protective topcoat to match the exact sheen of your floor, whether it's matte, satin, or gloss.

Why Targeted Repair is the Smart Choice

Choosing targeted scratch repair over a full sanding saves you significant time, money, and hassle. A full refinishing job is a major undertaking that creates a lot of dust and forces you out of the room for days. Our method is quiet, clean, and focused only on the damaged area. We take great care to protect the surrounding floor and furniture inside your home. This approach preserves the original character and patina of your flooring, which is something a complete sanding can erase. It's about careful restoration, not aggressive replacement.
