Check scratch depth
Determine whether the mark is in the surface finish, colour layer or the wood itself.
Fixing Scratched Hardwood. Built to Last.
Determine whether the mark is in the surface finish, colour layer or the wood itself.
Match the wood species, colour, sheen and existing finish before selecting a repair approach.
Compare a localized treatment with broader refinishing when surrounding wear or colour variation will remain visible.

Fixing a scratch isn't just about covering it up. It's about creating a durable repair that blends in and holds up to foot traffic. First, we assess the damage. A surface scuff is different from a deep gouge that has penetrated the wood's finish and stain. We determine the depth and severity to choose the right technique for your indoor flooring.
Next is matching. We carefully match the colour and sheen of your existing floor. This is critical for a seamless look. We don't use generic kits; we mix custom stains and finishes to get it right. For deeper scratches, we use professional-grade wood fillers that bond permanently with the floor, preventing the repair from shrinking or cracking over time.
Once the scratch is filled and coloured, the final step is sealing. We apply a durable top coat over the repaired area to protect it from future wear and tear. This integrates the repair into the rest of the floor's protective layer. The goal is simple: a fix that you can walk on, clean, and live with, without worrying about it failing. We're not interested in cosmetic cover-ups that look good for a week. We provide structural repairs that last.
Ignoring scratches can lead to bigger problems. An unsealed gouge can allow moisture to penetrate the wood, causing dark spots or warping. Timely repairs protect your long-term investment. It's more cost-effective to fix minor issues now than to face a full sanding and refinishing job later. Call us at (647) 898-7839 to discuss your project.
Repair expectations: Repair appearance depends on the condition of the surrounding floor and the availability of compatible matching material.

They removed our staircase and upstairs carpet and did a fantastic job of installing our new hardwood as well as cleaning up and disposing of our old carpets.
