What the fuck are you doing to your floors?? Hardwood is easy to clean and doesn't crack like tile.
Wasn't my floor, friend dropped a steak knife which landed tip down, took a big ass chip out of it. Guess they didn't varnish/seal it, they just stained it?
You might look for more competent flooring people.
When I was working with a 3rd generation hardwood master, we would glue in a replacement chip or swap the board if the chip was huge. And stain to match (if appropriate). And refinish.
Always, ALWAYS make the finished product an even, flat floor.
Stained potholes? Wtf ever. Fire that team.
If it chipped, then it is likely some kind of vinyl or composite made to look like wood. Nowadays the fake wood looks realistic enough to fool people! But real wood doesn't chip like that.
Yah. Mine just has full on knife wounds from that.
