Hello, my name is Eurnest Widdles. I love to restore damaged wood flooring to make the surface look like new. Wood is an extremely versatile material that cleans up nicely with a bit of sanding and a new application of stain. My first experience in transforming hardwood flooring occurred in my starter home. The home was perfect except for the scratched, gouged and stained flooring. The floors really took away from the beauty of the rest of the materials. I rented a sander and removed the damaged wood to reveal the new materials hiding below. An application of stain made it look like I completely replaced the flooring with new materials. I would like to teach others how to complete this process using a variety of hand and power tools. I hope you will try the techniques shared on this site to improve the look of your flooring.
