  1. Quick & Easy Wood Floor Repair

  2. Step #1 Dig Out the Damage Floor repairing is a not difficult task and can be taken as a DIY project. You can use a chisel or awl and slowly dig out the damaged portion. Dig until you are getting the hard sound of the wood. However, there is no requirement of getting a clean patch. Even if the area is of random shape, it will not be a big matter. It is better to let the floor to guide you about how much to remove.

  3. Step #2 Tape Around the Patch You need to fill the gap with the epoxy, so you require to tape off the edge while doing refinishing service in Sherman Oaks to ensure that the patch you are placing will not get affected. If you have the blue painter’s tape, then nothing can be better than this. However, don’t try to use something hard, as the strong adhesive may pull off the finish of the surrounding planks.

  4. Step #3 Fill with Epoxy If you are patching a wide section, it is better to go for the epoxy. However, for small areas, you can try something else also. However, if these are not available in your area, you can try to fill them with different wood fillers. Press the fillers into the patch strongly along with a little overfilling. During the sanding, it will be cured. Pull the tape off from the floor once the patch is filled.

  5. Step #4 Sand & Stain After the epoxy filler got dry, remove the tape and prepare the floor for sanding. You need to sand the patch smoothly to bring it to the level of the floorboards. Avoid using the sandpaper on the surrounding finish. Try to sand only the epoxy patch, else you need to do more later. Finally, clean the dust by wiping it.

  6. Step #5 Draw the Grain You need to draw the grain on the patch as it is not a part of the wood. Be careful about this. You can try a sharpie or an artist’s brush. However, if you don’t feel comfortable, it is better to go for professional wood floor repair, as they can do the job in a refined manner.

  7. Step #6 Coat with Finish The last step is to coat the patch with a polyurethane. However, apply the polyurethane, when all the things got dry. It will protect the patch by sealing it from every side. Only apply the polyurethane coat on the patched area and not the surrounding boards.
