Expert Hardwood Floor Repairs
Serving Novato & Surrounding Areas
Comprehensive Repair Solutions
From minor fixes to full board replacement
De Leon Hardwood Floors restores the beauty and integrity of your wood floors with precision repairs tailored to the exact issue. We correct scratches, dents, pet damage, gaps, cupping, buckling, loose boards, squeaks, and finish wear while preserving as much original material as possible.
Services include individual plank replacement, patching, structural stabilization, gap filling, sanding and blending, stain and finish sheen matching, and transition or threshold repair. We deliver seamless results that integrate with surrounding boards for a like-new appearance.
Assessment, plan, and precise execution
Every project starts with a thorough inspection that identifies the root cause of damage. We perform moisture testing, evaluate the subfloor and fasteners, inspect for leaks or humidity issues, and explain repair options with a clear, itemized estimate before work begins.
During repairs, we use dust containment and HEPA filtration, acclimate replacement boards, and secure them with appropriate fasteners or adhesives. Our team blends repairs by feathering boards, matches stain and sheen, applies durable finishes, and provides guidance on curing times and aftercare.
Damage types, compatible species, and finishes
Common repair scenarios we handle include water staining, pet urine damage, sun-faded areas, cracked or split boards, edge crush, nail pops, hollow spots in glued-down floors, and seasonal gaps. We also address underlying causes such as leaks, HVAC imbalance, or inadequate expansion space to help prevent recurrence.
We service both solid and engineered hardwood in nail-down, glue-down, and floating installations, including site-finished and prefinished floors. Species we frequently match include red and white oak, maple, hickory, and walnut, with careful attention to grain, grade, width, and mill profile.
Finish options include modern, low-VOC waterborne urethanes, classic oil-modified polyurethane, penetrating hardwax oils, and UV-cured systems. Our color-matching and sheen-calibration process blends new work into old, often using feathered board replacements for a virtually invisible repair, backed by clear workmanship warranties.

Unfortunately, I have had to reach out to most of the hardwood flooring professionals in the area recently. Many stopped responding when they learned about our project, which was simply cleaning and accurately applying maintenance oil to correct manufacturing and installation defects. Others provided incorrect information, and some provided quotes that were truly out of this world. Jorge de Leon was the only professional who was on time, extremely knowledgeable about the products involved and very friendly and respectful of us and our home. He didn't pressure us into choosing the option that would have been the easiest or most profitable for him, and he was very realistic and pragmatic about how we could best get the results we were looking for. He took time to explain the situation to us and discuss the options. He provided a clear written estimate and a written invoice, which also is not always available, even though it is required. Finally, he is licensed for this work. Jorge and his crew did a great job and we are truly grateful that they helped us out on relatively short notice. Based on our experience, I recommend working with them for hardwood flooring needs.
