We have some beautiful original wood floors in our brownstone. However, the previous owners let their large and multiple dogs urinate constantly on them and as a result they have large black stains in multiple places. We asked a few wood “experts” and they told us we had to rip out the entire floor (which is our entire parlor and 2nd floors) – no way to salvage or repair b/c the wood would become paper thin. We really don’t want to rip out these beautiful original floors and are wondering if anyone has advice or recommendations for someone to help us out. Many thanks
