Hi, We had an Engineered wooden floor layed @ 5yrs ago and it's lovely, unfortunately there was a tiny stone on some furniture and now the floor has a scratch, I would say 1mm deep @ 6"" long, can I repair this myself? The floor is oiled rather than waxed. We do have some furniture wax that we got with some furniture, can I use that to 'fill in the scratch", or can you get different coloured oil, maybe you can get a multi-pack? I have a small length of spare bet of flooring in the shed I could try it on, I would say that it is a light oak. I have found

It might be a wax? Not sure if it goes hard?

How much might it cost to be done properly?

Thanks

Steve

might be able to use wax crayons?
if not then maybe take your off cut to a decent timber merchants to match up libron wax sticks,same sort of gear in the linky you have given.
 
Thanks for that, there are a couple of timber floor specalists in the area, I'll take my spare piece of flooring there and see what they say, maybe they do an oil touch up kit? As the scratch isn't that deep I'm not concerned with filling it, just getting good colour match, unfortunately it's in the middle of the floor
