/ HARDWOOD FLOOR REPAIR, SOMERVILLE
Wood Floor Repair Options
A radiator that dripped all winter, a scorch mark from a dropped pan, a strip that split when movers dragged a bureau: that kind of damage rarely spreads across a room. Hardwood floor repair in Somerville begins with a free visit, and our tech prices it after seeing the floor.
Board Replacement
We pry cracked strips out one at a time, then cut replacement pieces from the same species and width and lace them into the rows, keeping the end joints offset like the original.
Free
/Estimate at Home
What’s Included:
Cracked Boards Cut Out
New Wood Woven In
Sanded and Blended
Water Damage Repair
Cupping next to a radiator, dishwasher or back door almost always means water. First we track down the drip, let everything dry, then replace whatever strips stay crowned.
Free
/Moisture Check
What’s Included:
Cause Found First
Cupped Boards Replaced
Sealed With Polyurethane
Pet Stain Repair
Old pet stains can sink right through oak, so we put in new strips there. Chips, gouges and dents get wood filler, hand smoothing and new finish until you lose track of them.

Moisture Checked at Home
During your free visit, our tech reads moisture levels, peeks at the basement ceiling below the damage if he can and walks you through the plan, then quotes.

No More Squeaks or Gaps
Bouncy spots by the radiators get screwed down, and the cracks that show up when the boiler kicks on are packed with filler before they fill with dog hair.

One Year Repair Warranty
Every repair is made by a Brazil Floors employee with NWFA certification. Our license and insurance protect you, and our labor on each patch stays covered a year.
/ LOCAL REPAIR CREW
Floor Repair Crew in Somerville
We repair oak and maple floors in homes around Union Square, on Winter Hill and near Powder House Square. Our crew cuts away what cannot be saved, weaves in matching wood, sands across the area and refinishes it, so the fix settles quietly into a floor that may have been down for a century.
/ WHAT WE FIX MOST
Hardwood Floor Repair Services
Very few damaged floors need to come out entirely. A few carefully chosen strips, sanded in and sealed, usually bring the room back.
Cracked Board Replacement
Under a heavy bookcase near Teele Square, one cracked strip comes up and a new piece with matching grain takes its spot.
Water Damaged Floors
Cupping beside a leaky radiator in East Somerville dries for a while, and only strips that refuse to flatten get replaced.
Pet Stain Removal
Near Gilman Square, dark pet stains in a kitchen call for new strips plus a custom stain mix to match the rest.
Squeaky Floor Repair
Creaky strips along a hallway off Highland Avenue are screwed to the joists, and the noise is gone for good.
Gap Filling
Gaps that open as radiators dry the air each winter get filled, keeping crumbs and sand from settling in.
Scratch and Gouge Repair
Near Prospect Hill, puppy scratches and the dent left by a dropped dresser are filled until nobody can find them.
/ Floors, Stairs and Stain
Sanding, Stair and Flooring Work Beyond Patches
Once the patch is in, you might want the whole room sanded, the front stairs rebuilt or the back bedroom redone in oak, LVP or laminate. A single phone call covers it.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does a floor repair usually cost?
Every job is different, which is why pricing happens at the free estimate. Our tech counts the bad strips, identifies the species and checks below the floor, then writes up the cost.
Can you match the old oak in my Somerville home?
Usually, yes. Our tech brings strips in several widths and species, and the stain is mixed on leftover pieces until the new wood and your original oak look like they grew together.
Will I be able to see the repair?
After sanding and refinishing, a patch is very hard to find. For a perfectly even color, we may suggest refinishing the whole room at the same time.
What makes a wood floor cup?
Nearly always moisture, from a leaking radiator, a dishwasher line or a damp basement. We stop the water first, otherwise the new strips would cup as well.
Can squeaks be fixed without pulling up the floor?
Most of the time. We find the loose strip or subfloor spot and fasten it from above or from the basement, so nothing has to be torn out.
Do pet urine stains come out?
Light spots sometimes sand away. Darker ones have soaked deep into the wood, so our tech replaces those strips and stains the new oak until the spot disappears.
How fast can you fix my floor?
Start with a free estimate by phoning 508-306-4190. Repairs usually follow within days, since our Coventry warehouse can deliver matching wood the next day.
Are floor repairs guaranteed?
Yes. Our labor on any repair is warrantied a full year, and the wood and finish we use are also covered by their makers.
