As a remodeling carpenter, Jay Cork has repaired many hardwood floors but never damaged any — he swears.
Stain and Finish the New Board to Match
I prefer to always do this step first. Test some stain colors on new floorboards and apply some urethane. Once you find a good match, repeat that process for the actual repair.
- Pro tip: Even when you use the same stain and finish, each piece of scrap floorboard may look slightly different. Stain and finish several pieces and go with the best match.
