How much does it cost to refinish a dresser?

• <div><p>The cost to refinish a dresser ranges from <b>$300 to $2,000</b> on average, depending on the dresser’s size, material, and detail. If you need to repair the dresser before refinishing it, you can expect that service to cost extra. While it’s possible to restore and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-tips-refinish-antique-furniture.htm">refinish antique furniture yourself</a>, we recommend hiring a professional furniture refinisher to maintain the integrity of vintage and heirloom pieces. That way, you have the peace of mind of knowing that your dresser will receive professional-grade restoration.</p></div>

Q: How do you help someone declutter their home?

• <div><p>The best way to help a family member or friend declutter their home is to hire a professional organizer or cleaner to do it for them. However, you can also help them make a plan to tackle the clutter. Sit down with them and sort through the items, making piles of what to keep, toss, and donate. Focus on one area at a time to avoid overwhelming them. If they have trouble letting go of some items, ask them when they last used each item, what its purpose is, and whether it has sentimental value. The answers to these questions can help you advise them on handling clutter.</p></div>

Q: Can I DIY?

• <div><p>Yes, you can tackle small rooms yourself if you're handy and have a flat, clean subfloor to work with. But seams must be sealed properly, or the barrier will fail. Any gaps will let moisture sneak through and defeat the purpose of installing this more expensive type of carpet padding. For larger rooms or areas, professional installation is usually worth the extra cost.</p></div>

Q: How do you refinish a table top without stripping it?

• <div><p>It is possible to refinish a table without stripping and sanding it by repairing small dents. You&rsquo;ll use a gel stain, and then put on a wipe-on finish. The downside is this won't result in as smooth and as deep of a finish as if you had stripped the table. Also, any blemishes on your table will remain. </p></div>

Q: What kind of wood should I use for a fireplace mantel?

• <div><p>You can use most types of wood for a fireplace mantel. You can use simple veneer plywood. If you prefer solid wood, pine is an affordable option that's easy to cut and finish. Walnut is harder, heavier, and highly durable with a rich dark brown color. Hickory offers a lighter color but is similarly durable. Cedar is ideal for a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/dated-fireplace-mantel-turns-rustic-modern.htm">rustic fireplace design.</a></p></div>

Although the description of my review says "Painting -- Exterior" work, the work I had done was interior. I've had two tall bookcases with doors (solid wood, stained) for almost 20 years. In my new home I wanted to "install" them in the living room to create a sort of library wall, but wanted...
