Pet urine stains can permanently damage hardwood floors — especially when hidden under rugs or furniture for long periods of time. This Sanford homeowner discovered deep black pet stains on their red oak floors after years of their dog repeatedly using the same spot without their knowledge. When urine soaks into hardwood, it penetrates deep into the grain and can cause irreversible discoloration, odor, and structural damage. In cases like this, sanding alone cannot remove the stains.
Our team at The Flooring Professionals removed and replaced all permanently damaged boards with new red oak planks that matched the existing flooring in width, grain, and grade. We then sanded the entire downstairs level to bare wood, removing years of normal wear and creating a clean, even surface throughout the space.
With expert stain-matching and a high-durability refinish system, we seamlessly blended the repairs into the surrounding floor — the results look flawless, and the homeowner was thrilled.
They left us this amazing 5-star review:
“They replaced a section of floor for me and refinished my whole downstairs and you can’t even tell where the new wood and old wood were… Great service, affordable pricing, and the most amazing work you could ask for.”
