Revive Your Wood Floors Without Full Replacement
When your beautiful wood floors suffer damage, a full replacement isn't always necessary. At Carpet Services Incorporated (CSI), our hardwood floor repair services target specific issues—from localized water damage and deep gouges to annoying squeaks and pet stains—preserving the integrity and character of your existing floors.
Unlike general contractors who might push for a full tear-out, our in-house wood specialists evaluate the extent of the damage and propose targeted restoration strategies. Whether you need a single plank spliced out or an entire area seamlessly blended, our flooring installation and repair team delivers invisible results.
We proudly serve homeowners across Cook, DuPage, Kane, and Will counties, bringing over 45 years of wood restoration expertise to every project. If your floors are beyond repair, we also provide expert hardwood floor installation to match your home's aesthetic perfectly.

Why Chicagoland Trusts CSI With Wood Restoration
When Carmine and Victor Molfese founded Carpet Services Incorporated in 1979, they built it on a single principle: deliver the quality of work you'd want in your own home. That principle drives every hardwood floor repair our craftsmen complete today.
We are not a franchise or a broker sending out subcontractors. Every CSI wood specialist is a full-time, trained employee accountable to the same exacting standards that have kept homeowners coming back for over four decades. We understand the unique challenges of the Midwest climate and how it affects wood movement and finishing.
Whether you need a minor touch-up or a major structural repair, our team treats your home with the utmost respect. Visit our Addison showroom to explore wood species options or schedule an on-site diagnostic assessment.
What Property Owners Say About Our Repairs
Real results from real hardwood restoration projects across Chicagoland.
"We had severe water damage near our sliding door where the boards had cupped and turned black. CSI carefully removed the damaged section, dried the subfloor, and spliced in new red oak. They stained it so perfectly that even we can't tell where the repair ends and the original floor begins. True craftsmen."
"Our 1920s home had deep gouges in the hallway from moving furniture, plus several loose boards that squeaked terribly. The CSI team re-fastened the subfloor securely and filled the gouges with a tinted epoxy that matched the patina perfectly. The floors look historic but function like new."
"I was quoted a fortune by another company to replace the entire kitchen floor due to pet stains. CSI came out and showed me they could just replace the specific affected boards and blend the stain. It saved us thousands of dollars and the result is absolutely flawless. Highly recommend their diagnostic approach."
