Can deep scratches in hardwood floors be fixed?
During refinishing, approximately a 1/16th of an inch of wood is uniformly removed from the floor. Dents or scratches deeper than the amount of wood being sanded off the floor will be filled with wood filler, the colour of which will resemble the colour of your floor. We will inform you if replacing damaged boards is aesthetically a better option than filling them. It is not recommended to sand heavily in isolated areas in an attempt to remove the damage, as the floor would then be uneven and unsightly to the eye.
