Hey all,
I'm in a home where my dog unfortunately scratched up some of the hardwood.
There was/is no replacement hardwood (leftover boxes) so I'm doing my best to find a match, but struggling to do so.
It's solid hardwood and not engineered (looks to be 3.5"), it looks like it could be maple (or even exotic like Jatoba) judging by the grain markings and it's a very bright cherry read (actual maple cherry doesn't come close enough to this colour).
I've attached some pictures for viewing, any ideas on how I can match this? I've gone to 5-6 local (I'm in Toronto) hardwood stores plus Home Depot and Rona and haven't been able to find a match (too brown).
Also open to other ideas that people may have (e.g. staining another piece of hardwood to this colour, but not sure how to go about that).
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. And before anyone asks/comments, I'm not looking to replace the entire floor's hardwood to a new kind to forgo this problem and this is a rented property so I'm fixing this before I move out for the landlord.
