Water Damaged Floor Repair in Aurora

A leak, a spill, or a flood can cause serious damage to your indoor floors. Buckling boards, staining, and musty smells are signs that can't be ignored. Ignoring them only leads to bigger, more expensive problems down the road. We take a careful, step-by-step approach to water damage repair, focusing on a precise and lasting solution for your Aurora home. It’s about doing the job right, from the subfloor up.

Our Step-by-Step Repair Process

When you call us, the first thing we do is listen. Then, we perform an exhaustive inspection. We don't just look at the cupping or staining on the surface; we use professional moisture meters to map out the full extent of the water's reach, including the subfloor. Identifying the exact boundary of the damage is the critical first step to a proper, lasting repair. We document everything to give you a clear picture of the situation.

Once we have a plan, we carefully remove only the damaged flooring. This isn't a demolition job; it's a surgical process. We take great care to protect the surrounding, undamaged floor. Our goal is to make the repair area as small and discreet as possible, which saves you money and preserves the integrity of your original flooring.

Drying and Preparation is Everything

Simply putting new flooring over a damp subfloor is a recipe for disaster. We ensure the area is completely dry, using industrial fans and dehumidifiers if necessary. We then prepare the subfloor, making sure it is perfectly clean, level, and structurally sound. Any compromises at this stage will show in the final result, and we don't believe in compromises. This meticulous preparation is the foundation of a repair that will stand the test of time.

Finally, we begin the installation. Sourcing the right materials is a craft in itself. We go to great lengths to find flooring that matches your existing planks in wood species, width, colour, and grain pattern. Each new piece is expertly fitted, and we then sand, stain, and finish the area to blend seamlessly with the rest of your room. The final result is a floor that looks as though the damage never happened. That's our standard.
