On the off chance that the scratch does not delve in too profoundly, you <a href="http://www.chicagohardwoodflooringcontractor.net/" rel="nofollow">Hardwood floor repair</a> may have the capacity to escape with a light sanding of simply the region encompassing the scratch. Something else, the whole board will need sanding and leveling.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04705949644252272530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4537355151674491939.post-72977914782906225722013-01-23T12:58:46.725-05:002013-01-23T12:58:46.725-05:00Well, I'm currently (hopefully temporarily) un...Well, I'm currently (hopefully temporarily) unemployed, so I've had a lot of free time.

That was a LOT of work for whoever did it. I actually found a bunched-up newspaper flyer in the wall, next to the outlet, but it's only dated to march 2007, which doesn't seem to make that much sense, since it seems too recent.<br /><br />Again, they drilled or chipped at the foundation in the living room, but they didn't go far enough, and partially damaged the floor, so I don't understand why they went through the trouble.<br /><br />Then, there's the simple fact that even if they planned not to use that floor again, ir would have been just as much work to just drill one hole in the centre of one board, rather than just drill anywhere and make 4-5 holes.JChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09831757279235998895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4537355151674491939.post-41133673905527207132013-01-23T09:22:36.031-05:002013-01-23T09:22:36.031-05:00Hello JC,

Imagine someone sitting there, chiseling out the channel for the wire. Suddenly someone else barks in and shouts: "Are you nut wasting that much time?!? No one's ever gonna see this floor!"<br /><br />I also think that the adhesive is much older than 1992, but probably the hardwood was covered with vinyl, linoleum or carpet when they rewired and they didn't want to ruin that floor covering. I've seen similar adhesive underneath 1960s vinyl (the ancient coconut fibre backed stuff). Thankfully in my case it was over terrazzo (which is waterproof) and came off easily after dumping a few litres of water on the floor.Ragnarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06087234298605439486noreply@blogger.com
