Nail Holes in Wood Floor
Comments (1)When we purchased our home we decided to get the wood (oak) floors refinished. There were nail holes- and plenty of them, the tech did put some kind of wood filler in the holes before they refinished them. Hope this helps!...See Morehow to pound in nails on wood floor, air hammer?
Comments (13)The nail puller will make large gouges on each side of the nail head when it is hammered in to get a grip. A drilling hammer (small hand sledge in the 2-4 pound size) and a metal punch that is the same size or barely larger than the nail head will get them in most likely on all nut the hardest of woods. If you want it to look nice, it might be worth trying to center punch each nail head then drill the head off. It is one of those things that the less work to sink them, the more work may be required to repair the surface. To a certain extent the floor might be considered so damaged that it is only worth tearing it up and installing a new floor. And I love old floors....See MoreNormal to have scratches, gouges, etc on new window install
Comments (5)I’m hoping you see this and let me know what happened for you I see this happened to you maybe clear back in 2010. The same thing just happened to me in January. Scratches everywhere. I spent thousands. I’m horrified. I just don’t see how this is ok to have brand new windows all scratched up. Right now it is dark days and so I can only imagine what my brand new windows will look like when the sun comes out. This just is not right....See Moretiny holes in new wood floors
Comments (7)Without a picture it's hard to tell, but most likely it would be foolish to replace boards with tiny holes that could be filled. On one hand the holes could be filled in a matter of minutes. On the other hand boards cut be cut and torn out, new pieces with some of the tongues and grooves removed would be installed, sanded, stained, and finished, with the likelihood that there may be a slight mismatch between the patched boards and the original. It seems to me there's a clear choice, unless a picture convinces me otherwise....See Moretoxcrusadr
