Is furniture restoration worth it?

• <div><p>Not always—heavily worn or broken furniture often isn’t worth repairing or refinishing (if it’s even possible). While some damage can be repaired and some of the visual appeal restored, major flaws, such as structural issues, can’t be fixed as easily. If you still want a cost-saving furniture refinishing project rather than purchasing all new, consider shopping for similar secondhand pieces at thrift stores, garage sales, and estate sales.</p></div>

How do you fix a drawer that falls out?

• <div><p>A drawer falling out of place usually indicates there’s too much in it, so the best place to start is by emptying it of any non-essential items to check whether it was simply a weight issue. If that’s not the case, check whether the front panel or hardware is damaged, and replace parts as necessary. You may need to replace the drawer or the drawer slides if the issue persists.</p></div>

Can you repair leather furniture that has cat scratches?

• <div><p>Yes, you can repair cat scratches on leather furniture. A quick fix that won’t repair roughness is a leather recoloring balm that helps scratches blend in. Otherwise, use the following process.</p><ol><li><p>Clean the area and trim loose fibers.</p></li><li><p>Rub leather binding glue all over the affected area.</p></li><li><p>Sand the area down with fine-grit sandpaper and clean off any residue.</p></li><li><p>Fill holes, scratches, and gouges with leather putty from a leather repair kit.</p></li><li><p>Sand the area down again and clean off any residue.</p></li><li><p>Apply leather colorant in several layers.</p></li><li><p>Seal the color in with a leather sealant and finish.</p></li></ol><p></p></div>

Q: Should I even bother to ship my bedroom furniture?

• <div><p>Whether it is <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-i-ship-furniture-or-buy-new-when-moving.htm">worth it to ship your bedroom furniture</a> depends on your priorities, but it can be hard to decide. You should ship your bedroom furniture if the pieces have sentimental or antique value and if it will make you happy to have them in your new home. But if your mattress or box spring is worn out (the average lifespan of a bed is seven to ten years), it's probably not worth the money or effort to ship if you&rsquo;re moving somewhere where bedroom furniture is readily available. </p></div>

"My handrails had been dinged from the hailstorm in May. This pro came to see what needed to be done, gave me an estimate of the cost to redo these by sanding, spray painting with primer, and the material cost. When he showed up as promised, he covered all the exposed portions of the porch with plastic and cardboard to avoid unwanted paint smears. The handrails look almost new and that is amazing since they are original to the house and have been painted many times. Very professional."

"We needed backsplash put up in kitchen and door going from kitchen into laundry room removed. We asked that a folding barn door be hung to replace door. Mr. Vargas was very conscientious about his work and pleasing us. He made sure we were completely satisfied before leaving. We definitely intend to use him for other projects in the future. "
