If your hardwood flooring is damaged, it can be restored to its original beauty. The exact steps required, as well as the hardwood floor restoration cost, can vary widely. The cost to restore your hardwood floors will depend on the type of damage, the size of the area that needs to be repaired, and a host of other factors.
What Is Hardwood Floor Restoration?
Hardwood floor restoration is not the same as refinishing. When a wood floor is refinished, the top layer is sanded to remove areas that are scratched or otherwise damaged, then a new finish is applied. Hardwood floor restoration can address other problems, such as gaps, uneven surfaces, and water damage.
How Can Hardwood Floors Be Restored?
For a small scratch, a little wood filler and stain may be all that’s required. If your hardwood floor has a large scratch or multiple scratches, it may need to be refinished. If your hardwood flooring is uneven, workers may need to sand the floor, repair damage to the foundation, or repair or replace joists.
Water damage may be more expensive to repair. If your hardwood floor has water damage, boards that have been affected will have to be replaced. The cost of replacement planks will depend on the type of wood needed, its availability, and the number of planks required. Contractors may also have to repair the joists and subfloor.
