What you need to know about wood flooring scratches.

Replacing a hardwood flooring plank

Its not always the best idea.

Hardwood flooring scratches are a pain. Especially when you have had a scratch visible to the eye like at an entry way or a hallway. The main thing you have to do is consider a couple of things before deciding on whether or not to replace a wood flooring plank. For if you did not realize replacing a wood plank may not be the best thing that you can do if its in the entry way. For one you have to think about whether your hardwoods have already aged and turned into a different color than the original plank. One of the most important thing to remember is that you must have a wood floor plank available in order for this to work. If you do have an original wood plank than great. If you do not have one, than replacing your plank in the entry way may be impossible. Even if you buy another box, it may not be the same shade or lot. So if its not the same lot, it may not fit properly. Replacing a wood flooring plank may not be the best idea in the world after all.
