Hardwood Flooring Pet Stain Repair

Has your pet urinated on your hard wood floors, leaving your with discoloration, warping, or cupping? This is a common problem for pet owners and an issue that we at AG Construction see frequently.

Many homeowners assume having their floors refinished is an effective, and affordable way to remove pet stain damage from their hardwood floors. This, however, is not true. When pet urine stains have penetrated deep into your floors, simply sanding a thin top layer off the wood will not remove the stain, and the application of fresh stain can actually bring the discoloration out stronger than it was before in some cases.

This can lead to unhappy homeowners that have paid thousands to have their floors refinished, only to have the problem they were hoping to correct remain.

So How Do I Repair Pet Stain Damaged Hardwood Floors?

The only way to ensure that pet stains are removed from floors is to replace the affected areas. This may sound like a big, and expensive project, but it doesn’t have to be. The affected areas can be replaced while the surrounding floor is left intact–meaning you don’t have to spend thousands replacing unaffected sections of flooring.
