    No experience w/ hardwood floor installation/finishing. That's what makes it an adventure!

    We're screwed... lol.

    All I need to do now (I think) is to get pine putty to fill the gaps, sand it all down, and then throw a finish on it... I think...

    Not screwed. I have general construction experience and know not to eat the putty or finish.

    With the few repairs you've inquired about. You still haven't figured out contractors are 3-8 weeks out?

    Take your time, get the floors done. Come next summer redo them they way you should have the first time, when you're not under time constraints. For now get them sealed and call it good.
