Boards Matched to Yours

Older Cambridge houses usually have narrow oak strip, and we stock matching pieces and tint the color in layers until the patch disappears.

Moisture Checked at Home

Squeaks and open seams near the radiators are common in old buildings. We fasten the boards from above and fill the cracks with a color matched putty.

How is a Cambridge floor repair priced?

Repairs start from $150 and are quoted on site, based on how many boards and why they failed. The quote is firm and in writing.

Can you fix boards swollen by a radiator leak?

Yes. We dry the area, follow the moisture readings and swap only boards that stay cupped.

A pipe burst above my floor. Is it ruined?

Not always. We check the room and the subfloor, dry everything and replace only the damaged strips.

Can you match old narrow oak strip?

Yes. We keep oak strip in stock and stain it in layers until the patch blends in.

How do you stop a squeaky floor?

We screw the boards into the joists from above and hide the heads with tinted putty.

Can you close the gaps by the radiator?

Yes. Heat dries the wood and opens the seams, so we fill them with a flexible, color matched filler.

How fast can you start?

Often within the week. A small patch is cut, laid and coated in a day.

What warranty is on a repair?

One year on labor, from licensed, insured, NWFA trained installers.
