This is a small bedroom repair of some of the worst cupping and shrinking I have ever seen. The cause of this type of damage is from years of chemical exposure. Specifically, this room was used as a wood shop and wood stripper was spilled over the floor for a very long time.

  • Looks like it would have been just as easy to tear the whole floor up and replace it

  • @pcjunkie54 You are correct... But, it would have cost more money in material... Thanks for watching!!

  • Maybe you can help me. I have an old house (circa 1906) Around the perimeter of the wood floors are small hole that seem to be copper lined. What is the purpose of the small holes 1/4" around the perimeter of the room? I can't seem to find an answer anwhere. thanks

  • @ezalburez For some reason my response to your question did not post. I agree with gpgab971. This is most likely old copper gas tubing. Thanks for watching!

  • Nice video. Although I have only about six pieces of hardwood floor which need to be replaced from my puppy peeing into it constantly in the same spot, the floor darkened and only 6 pieces are lifted. Can you help me?

  • @triplet123c You can just replace the six boards that have lifted. It is difficult to explain how to do this in a short comment post, but hit us up on Google Talk and we can help.

  • 1:43 that tool cost 500$ i do have oneand it makes good jub ;-)

  • @jay0661 It really depends on how bad the buckling is. If it is limited to the perimeter of the room, it may be possible to just remove the boards against the wall, rip down new boards by 1/2" and re-install. If the buckling has migrated into the center of the room, it may require some more extensive repairs. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

  • How much did this cost I wonder?

  • very informative, but whats with this music??

  • i need sum floor repair done to my home. i have squeaking sound in certain spots

  • @graveheart1138 I think it's "Opus One" by Madison Park. I don't normally associate hardwood floor repair with animal abuse, but from the "before" shot at 0:35, you could almost imagine a fly-by-night kennel.

  • What's this song?
