First we identify the species, whether pine, maple or one of the oaks, and the exact strip width, then try stain on leftover scraps until the shade matches.

At the free visit we step on soft areas, take moisture readings and check the framing from the cellar when it's reachable, then give a price that won't change.
Spongy spots get fastened into the subfloor with thin trim screws, and the winter gaps between strips get filled so crumbs stop collecting there.
The hands doing your patch are our own NWFA trained employees, licensed and insured. If our repair lets go in the first twelve months, the return trip is on us.



Damage varies so much that we skip a price list. An estimator visits for free, looks it over and quotes a firm price before leaving. Small fixes often cost less than people expect.
Yes. Nails rise as wood dries and shrinks over the years. We set them back down or replace them with trim screws, then fill the holes so they vanish.
Often, yes. Damaged planks can be removed and swapped for matching ones. If the top layer is thick enough, light sanding helps the new piece blend.
Dry heated air pulls moisture from the wood and it shrinks. Small seasonal gaps are normal and close in summer. Wide permanent gaps can be filled or the strips reset.
A shallow scorch can sometimes be sanded out. A deep burn from a candle or fireplace ember usually means cutting out that strip and weaving in a new one.
We mix stains by hand on leftover wood, adjusting until it lines up with your floor, so even an older prefinished shade can usually be blended closely.
Usually you can walk on it carefully, in bare feet, later that day or the next morning, depending on the finish. Heavy furniture should wait a couple of days.
Yes. The person doing your patch works for us directly, and if any repair we made fails within one year, a crew member returns and makes it right at no charge.
