Boards Matched to Yours

Red oak gets matched with red oak, maple with maple, same width, grain running the same way. We test stain on the patch until it sits easy beside a century old floor.

Moisture Checked at Home

At your free visit we kneel for a close look, take moisture readings and check underneath, so the repair we price fixes the cause, not only the surface.

No More Squeaks or Gaps

Planks that rock underfoot get screwed back to the subfloor. Cracks that open each woodstove winter get filled as well, which keeps toast crumbs out of them.

One Year Repair Warranty

Each patch is the work of our own NWFA certified people, with full license and insurance, and we guarantee it for twelve months. Repair labor is paid on arrival.

Floor Repair Around Hardwick

We patch floors in Gilbertville mill houses, farmhouses out near Old Furnace and camps a short ride from the Quabbin. Snowmelt at the mudroom, dogs tracking in Ware River mud and decades of boots all leave marks. In these photos our crew fills a gap, weaves in new oak and hand sands a patch.

/ WHAT WE FIX MOST

Hardwood Floor Repair Services

Damage in one corner does not doom the whole floor. Usually a handful of planks get mended and matched, and once finished nobody notices.

Cracked Board Replacement

A plank split by the weight of a cast iron cookstove is pulled, and a piece of matching wood is fitted in.

Water Damaged Floors

Oak that cupped near a leaky back door dries out first, then any planks still swollen get replaced.

Pet Stain Removal

If a farmhouse kitchen has urine spots too deep to sand off, we put in new planks stained to blend.

Squeaky Floor Repair

Squeaky planks down an upstairs hallway get screwed into the joists below until the house goes quiet.

Gap Filling

Gaps that open during dry, woodstove heated winters get filled so crumbs stop falling in.

Scratch and Gouge Repair

Claw marks from a big farm dog and dents left on moving day are filled, sanded level and resealed so they fade.
/ Floors, Stairs and Stain

Hardwick Stairs, Refinishing and New Floors

Once the patch work is done, we can sand every room on that level to one even color, give carpeted stairs new oak treads, or lay LVP, laminate or new oak in a back ell.

Hardwick floor repair: how is it priced?

We cannot guess blind. After a free estimate where we see the damage up close, you get a firm number. Two split planks by the woodstove cost far less than a kitchen ruined by a leaking dishwasher.

Can a few bad planks be fixed without a full redo?

Usually. Only the bad planks come out. New wood of matching species and width gets woven in, and that section is sanded and finished until it blends with what surrounds it.

Our farmhouse floor is very old. Can you match it?

Nearly always. We read the species, width and grain first. When the color is tricky, we brush trial stain on scrap of the new wood until it looks right beside the old.

What causes planks to cup near the sink?

Almost always water, from a drip under the sink or a weeping dishwasher hose. That leak gets fixed before anything else, the floor dries out, and then any planks still raised are replaced.

Can sanding take out deep dog scratches?

Light ones usually vanish with sanding. Deeper gouges are packed with matching filler, then sanded flat following the grain and sealed, so they fade into the floor.

Why do gaps open between planks every winter?

Woodstove heat dries the air, so the wood shrinks a little each winter. We fill the wider gaps that stay open so dirt stops packing into them, and a humidifier helps a lot too.

When is the repair work paid for?

Repair labor gets paid the morning we start. If we supply new wood, that material is paid on delivery, separate from the labor.

Do you guarantee floor repairs?

Yes. During the first twelve months, if a patched plank loosens or a filled gap reopens, our licensed, insured crew comes back to set it right at no charge.
