"We had our hardwood floors in our home restored by Design Wood Floors this month. Our home is a 1910 Craftsman with a mix of original southern pine floors and relatively newer (20 year old) oak hardwood planking. All of the flooring was in dire need of refinishing. John and his crew did an amazing job restoring and refinishing our flooring. The attention to detail was impressive, and they even tackled things we didn't expect, like attaching some of our molding that had come unglued (in the past) back to our walls. We felt completely comfortable entrusting all of the details to Design Wood Floors and simply went on vacation, returning a week later to the hardwood floors of our dreams. We highly recommend Design Wood Floors!"

"If I could leave 0 stars I would. It started well, we were contacted immediately and scheduled an appointment. Our salesman came out and had a great personality and wasn’t pushy. We picked flooring to be installed on 7/13. On 7/12 I received a call from a woman (in the office) who informed me the they weren’t sure the material would work in our sunroom. She said she was going to contact the installers and get right back to me. This is where everything became unprofessional. First this woman never contacted me again. But I did receive a text saying I needed to accept the changes made to my order. I looked over the information and didn’t see any changes except the date form 7/13 to 7/17. I contacted empire to ask what changes had been made and also I explain about the conversation I had with the woman earlier about the flooring material not working. They assured me everything was fixed and we moved the install to 7/20. 7/19 we received a reminder of our appointment and we moved everything out of of sunroom to prepare for the install. Morning of the install we received a call letting us know all of our materials were loaded onto the truck and on its way to us at some point of the day. Almost 3 hours later I missed a called from a man from empire. His message went on to say that our salesman had made a mistake and should have contacted us, that they would not be able to do the flooring as plan because the material was not up to par with our sunroom and would fail. So my biggest problems with empire is they don’t seem knowledgeable, nobody seem to really know what was going on, it was a waist of my time and I pulled my credit for this. And even worst no one was responsible and everyone just passed the blame. Not a good company if you ask me. I will never go through empire"

Refinishing a wooden floor is one type of repair. For example, pros often refinish hardwood floors to repair scratches. They'll remove the top layer with a sander and put a new layer of stain and sealant on it. For wooden floor issues, such as water damage, cupping, or unevenness, you're likely looking at a different repair method, like sanding, applying wood filler, or leveling the floor.
How you repair damaged wood floors will depend on the cause of the damage. Typically, damaged wood floors are either refinished or replaced, depending on the extent of the specific issue and the recommendation of a local hardwood floor installer. Common ways to repair hardwood floors include sanding, refinishing, or completely replacing the damaged wood floors.
Consult a wood flooring professional to determine if you need to replace your floors. A pro can tell you if you can refinish what you have or if you need to replace it. While hardwood floors can be expensive, they can last for generations with proper maintenance. So you may opt to repair rather than completely replace your wooden floors.
The best way to protect your hardwood floors from water damage is to keep water away from them. Remember that prevention is better than action. You can proactively keep moisture away from your floors by inspecting your pipes annually and monitoring the humidity levels in your home. In addition, consider using rugs to protect your wooden floors and clean up spills as soon as they happen.
Most engineered hardwood floors have a wear layer, which means you can sand it down once or twice. Otherwise, repairs mean replacement, with engineered wood floors costing around $2,000 to $7,000. Consult a professional specializing in engineered wood to determine if your flooring should be repaired or replaced.
Yes, you can fix hardwood floor gouges using a high-quality wood filler. Begin by thoroughly cleaning the damaged area and removing any debris. Then, fill the gouge with matching wood filler, smooth it with a putty knife, and let it cure completely. Once dry, lightly sand the area and apply a finish that blends with the surrounding wood.
