Hardwood Floor Scratch Repair in North York

Hey there, neighbour. It’s a real shame when a beautiful hardwood floor gets a nasty scratch, isn't it? Whether it's from moving furniture, the dog's claws, or just everyday life, those marks can really stand out. Don't worry, you don't have to live with them or spend a fortune on a full replacement. As your local North York flooring guy, I'm here to help you fix those imperfections and bring back the warmth of your wood floors.

What Kinds of Scratches Can We Fix?

Life happens right on your floors. From light surface scuffs in the top finish to deeper, more noticeable gouges that have dug into the wood itself, we've seen it all. Surface-level scratches are often the easiest to deal with, sometimes requiring just a bit of buffing and a new coat of finish in that area. Deeper gouges, the kind that make you cringe every time you see them, need a little more attention. For these, we carefully fill the scratch with a matching wood filler, sand it smooth, and then meticulously match the stain and finish to blend it in with the rest of your floor.

Our Approach to Floor Repair

My process is all about doing a great job without turning your home into a construction zone. First, I'll take a close look at the damage to see what we're working with. Then, I'll thoroughly clean the area to make sure the repair will bond properly. Depending on the scratch, I'll either use special compounds for surface marks or a high-quality, colour-matched putty for deeper cuts. The real art is in the final step: feathering in the stain and finish to make the repair blend in seamlessly. It’s a detailed process, but it’s what makes the difference between a clumsy patch and a professional repair.
