When should you not use wood filler?

• <div>Avoid using wood filler for structural repairs or areas with extensive damage. Wood filler is designed for cosmetic fixes like filling small holes, cracks, or surface imperfections, and it doesn't provide the strength needed for load-bearing repairs or large gaps. You also shouldn’t use wood filler in areas exposed to heavy moisture or extreme outdoor conditions unless it’s a product specifically rated for such environments. Wood replacement or a strong epoxy resin is a better solution for severe rot or structural damage. </div>

How much does it cost to refinish wood furniture?

• <div>The cost to refinish wood furniture ranges widely, depending on the size and type of furniture. Here’s what you can expect to pay to refinish the following wood furniture items:<ul><li>Table: $150–$700</li><li>Dining chair: $100–$400</li><li>Rocking chair: $200–$500</li><li>Bar stool: $100–$250</li><li>China cabinet or armoire: $500–$3,500</li><li>Dining set: $1,000–$3,000</li><li>Coffee table: $150–$800</li><li>Dresser: $300–$2,000</li><li>Bed: $350–$2,000</li><li>Pool table: $300–$600</li><li><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-refinish-cabinets.htm">Kitchen cabinets</a>: $1,800–$5,000</li></ul></div>

Will vinegar remove glue from wood?

• <div>Yes, vinegar can break down the adhesive bond, effectively dissolving the glue from wood. It will be much easier to wipe away. Vinegar’s acidity, which helps to make it an effective all-purpose cleaner, can also aid in removing adhesive with less chance of damaging the wood and finish than more aggressive solvents. </div>

Why is my wood furniture sticky?

• <div>Wood furniture gets sticky when dirt and grime accumulate on the surface. Sometimes, wax coatings and oils are the culprit, but other times, it’s a sign that the finish is failing, and no amount of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-wood-furniture.htm">cleaning your wood furniture</a> will help. Varnish and lacquer can both get sticky as they age, and in this case, you’ll need to refinish the wood to stop the issue.</div>

Q: How do you modernize an old-looking closet?

• <div>You can modernize an old-looking closet by just painting it, but beyond that, consider electric elements like recessed or accent lighting. If this is a large and deep closet, you can consider adding an island to the middle or a nice ottoman on a rug. Luxury closets will have even more items, like felt-lined drawers for watches and jewelry, in-wall safes, electronic shoe storage, or a tablet catalog of their items. </div>

The carpets came back looking and smelling great. What a job... they had to take them up from under beds, move furniture, etc. They also put them all back, which is a huge and un-enviable job.
