Hardwood Floor Repair Services in Redford, MI
Professional Repairs That Preserve Your Floors
Hardwood is one of the few flooring materials that can be repaired instead of replaced. Our team takes a repair-first approach to help you preserve what you already have — saving you money while maintaining the character of your original flooring.
We handle all types of wood flooring repairs, including:
- Surface scratch and gouge repair
- Board replacement
- Squeaky or loose floorboards
- Gaps between planks
- Water damage restoration
- Color correction and stain blending
- Buckled or warped flooring
Our goal is to make repairs as invisible as possible, restoring both function and finish to your existing hardwood floors.
Common Hardwood Floor Issues We Fix
Scratches and Surface Wear
High-traffic areas, pet claws, dragged furniture, and daily use can leave surface marks and scuffs. We assess the depth of the damage and either buff, refinish, or selectively sand and reseal the area to restore a uniform appearance.
Water Damage
Leaks, spills, or flooding can cause swelling, cupping, or staining in wood flooring. We replace affected boards, address underlying moisture issues, and restore the area to match the rest of your floor.
Gaps and Separation
Wood expands and contracts with changes in temperature and humidity. Over time, this can lead to visible gaps between boards. We fill and seal these gaps or replace sections when necessary, depending on severity and age of the floor.
Loose or Squeaky Boards
Movement beneath the surface often causes squeaks or shifting planks. We secure loose boards, reinforce the subfloor if needed, and eliminate noise without damaging your floor’s finish.
Broken or Warped Boards
Individual planks that have cracked, splintered, or warped can often be replaced without redoing the entire floor. We carefully remove damaged boards and install matching wood to blend with surrounding planks in tone and texture.
Our Hardwood Repair Process
We follow a structured repair process to ensure every floor is restored with accuracy and attention to detail:
Inspection & Diagnosis
We start with a detailed in-home assessment to evaluate the extent of the damage. We determine whether sanding, repairs, or replacements are required and outline your options with a clear explanation of the process.
Color & Wood Matching
If replacement boards are needed, we source materials that match the original wood species, grain, and stain as closely as possible. For repairs, we carefully blend finishes to minimize visual contrast.
Board Removal & Repair
Damaged areas are removed using non-destructive tools to protect surrounding flooring. We repair subfloor issues if present, then install new boards and ensure seamless integration.
Refinishing & Blending
Once repairs are completed, we sand, stain, and seal the affected areas — or the entire floor, if required — to achieve a consistent look. We use dust-controlled sanding systems to keep your home clean.
Final Review & Care Advice
After the repair is complete, we walk you through the results and provide tips to prevent future damage and maintain your floor’s beauty.
When to Repair vs. Refinish or Replace
Not sure which option is best? Here's a general guide:
Repair
Is best for localized damage: dents, water spots, cracks, or squeaky boards
Refinishing
Is ideal for widespread surface wear or when changing stain color
Replacement
Is necessary when damage is widespread, structural, or affects low-quality flooring with thin wear layers
