The job

Water had damaged sections of an existing hardwood floor, and the owner wanted to keep the rest of it.

What we did

We cut out only the damaged boards and left the rest of the floor in place. The exposed plywood got WAKOL PU 280 moisture barrier, and once it had fully dried, new boards were glued and nailed into the gaps.

The result

After the repair, the entire floor was sanded and stained for one smooth, uniform finish across the space.
