Q: Can you fix water-damaged or swollen wood?

• <div><p>Learning how to fix water-damaged or swollen wood is possible, but it won&rsquo;t always work if there is significant warping or structural damage that was caused by the water. Cosmetic issues such as nicks, bubbling and peeling can often be fixed by using an iron, sanding, or using wood filler.</p></div>

Q: What is wood filler?

• <div><p>Wood filler is used to fix imperfections or damaged interior sections of wood on items like cabinets, door frames, and even laminate floors or countertops. It contains wood byproducts like sawdust mixed with water or solvent, which helps bind to wood and dry pretty quickly.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to wrap furniture in plastic for storage?

• <div><p>Yes, in most cases it&rsquo;s a good idea to wrap furniture in plastic to protect it from dirt, dust, and damage during storage. However, natural and porous materials such as wood or leather should have breathable fabric covers to prevent moisture damage from condensation. Either way, it&rsquo;s always important to ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup, especially in humid climates. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain custom furniture?

• <div><p>Follow care instructions based on the material, regularly clean, and avoid moisture or heat exposure.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between wood putty and wood filler?

• <div><p>Wood putty is made with a plastic adhesive, while wood filler is made from sawdust or wood products. The primary difference is their application: wood filler is used to repair the interior portions of wood, whereas wood putty is best for exterior sections because it contains chemicals that could damage the inside of the wood. If a crack or hole goes into the middle of the lumber, wood filler is the correct product for the job.</p></div>
