Q: Can I buff my floors myself?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-buff-hardwood-floor.htm">buff your floors yourself</a> if you have plenty of time, patience, and know-how. This intermediate-level DIY project requires either buying or renting a floor buffer and purchasing a buffing solution. This process can be time-consuming and, if not done correctly, can leave burn-like marks on your floor. </p><p>To ensure this job is done correctly without damaging your floors, consider hiring a professional floor buffer and polisher instead. You might save money on labor costs by DIYing this project, but you could spend more on repairs if not done correctly. </p></div>

Q: What types of floors can be cleaned and polished?

• <div><p>Common options include hardwood, tile, and vinyl floors. Professionals tailor methods to the specific material.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to strip and wax floors?

• <div><p>The answer to this question depends on how large the room is and how much experience you have stripping and waxing floors. It will take at least 24 hours to strip the floors, then you must allow time for drying, waxing, waiting for them to cure, and, finally, buffing them. Since you likely will not be working for the full 24 hours, it is safe to say that this is a two- or three-day job.</p></div>

Q: What additional home improvement tasks should I consider undertaking concurrently with shoe molding installation?

• <div><p>Before installing shoe molding, evaluate redoing or refinishing any floors and painting your walls or baseboard before putting on your shoe molding. If you don&rsquo;t already have baseboard trim, you should install that before adding shoe molding. Shoe molding is the final touch. Additionally, a carpenter or other professional that&rsquo;s installing shoe molding might also give you a deal on installing crown molding and replacing other trim if you get them done at the same time.</p></div>

Q: Does a magic eraser remove candle wax?

• <div><p>Yes, a magic eraser can remove candle wax. You can use it to remove all the candle wax from start to finish. Another option is to remove all large clumps with a dull knife and then pull out your magic eraser to finish the job. However, while the results can be impressive, a magic eraser shouldn&rsquo;t be used on all surfaces since it can potentially damage them. If you try this method, test a small, hidden spot first and proceed cautiously.</p></div>

This was a complete disaster. Completely missed a night stand, and left patches undusted on dressers, furniture and mirrors. Wanted to talk about herself constantly and left my kitchen floor sticky. Will never use again, lousy on every level.

The job was completely professional from start to finish. They did an excellent job. It was a full-day job starting with putting down plastic to protect the floors. Then they jackhammered the periphery, laid Waterguard, a system to drain leakage, put rocks over it and cemented the floor back,...

It took a long time because they are very busy and were working outside as long as they could. The project started January 21 and finished February 23. We had picked up some of the new items ourselves, but they picked up the vanity and all the tub-shower-toilet stuff from A.Y. McDonald's. Ben...

We purchased the tile over 6 months before it was to be installed because the main contractor was working outside as long as possible. So it was a balancing act among painting, flooring, and the main job. As with all of these kinds of projects, the timing didn't go the way we wanted, but it...

Boyd did an excellent job! Our rooms have complicated angles and Boyd did a great job with all of his cuts for our floor. He even did an incredible job undercutting our stone fireplace to fit the floorboards under our hearth. Boyd is a very skilled carpenter! I highly recommend him!!!

Our half bath was cramped, outdated, and ugly. The pink sink wasn't bad, but the pink toilet was awful. It had been a kitchen pantry before the previous owners remodeled the kitchen and bath. An odd thing: they had moved the entry for the bathroom but left the old pantry door; it opened to...
