Stain on Hardwood Floor
"Adam Lane" wrote in message ... Hi there. There's a dark stain on the floor. Maybe the dye in the carpet leached onto the floor when the carpet got wet. No, but dog **** will stain I was told it's not possible to just changeout the couple of strips of flooring that are stained. That the replacement pieces won't be color matched, and won't be flush with the rest of the floor. True, they will be lighter. They can be replaced though. The color will catch up in 10 years or so. But, rather, we have to remove the stain by sanding the ENTIRE floor until the stain is sanded away. And only be this means will the result be a floor which is color matched, and completely level. To anyone out there that knows about floors, does that sound right to you? I realize it might be a little tricky to replace tounge and groove flooring. But is it really necessary to refinish the whole floor in cases like this?? Wood changes color over time. Finishes yellow over time. Anything you do new will stand out. Depending on how objectionable that is to you determines what must be done. Refinishing the entire floor is going to give the best match, but if the stain goes deep you may still have to replace those boards. |
