Scratched or damaged flooring — Limassol, Limassol
Scratched hardwood, gouged laminate, cracked tile, or torn vinyl — floor damage ranges from cosmetic annoyances to structural issues. Light surface scratches on hardwood can often be buffed out with a screen-and-recoat ($1–$3/sq ft), while deep gouges that reach the wood grain require sanding and refinishing ($3–$8/sq ft). For laminate and LVP, individual damaged planks can usually be replaced without redoing the whole floor ($100–$400 for a few planks). Cracked ceramic or porcelain tiles need replacement of the broken tile ($150–$500 per tile including labor), with the biggest challenge being matching the grout color and tile pattern. Prevention: use felt pads under furniture legs, area rugs in high-traffic zones, and keep pet nails trimmed.
