How do I know if my wood furniture is worth refinishing?

• <div>Telling the difference between <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-wood-furniture.htm">high-quality wood furniture</a> and lower-quality pieces is challenging, but there are a few sign that indicate whether your furniture is worth repairing:<ul><li>Push your fingernail into an inconspicuous section of the wood. If it doesn’t leave a dent, it’s likely hardwood and is well worth a repair.</li><li>Unzip the bottom of couches to look for the structural components. If they’re made of wood rather than particle board, it’s likely worth refinishing.</li><li>Ask a local furniture repair technician. A reputable professional will let you know if you’re better off replacing rather than refinishing your specific item.</li></ul></div>

Q: Is it better to repair or replace old furniture?

• <div>When deciding whether to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/consider-reupholstery-instead-new-furniture.htm">reupholster, repair, or replace old furniture</a>, consider its age, level of wear and tear, and overall value. It&rsquo;s usually better to repair old furniture because older pieces tend to be made out of hardwood, like oak and maple, whereas newer furniture is more often made out of plywood, medium-density fiberboard (MDF), and other less durable materials. When determining whether it&rsquo;s worth the price to repair a furniture item, calculate the price of buying a new, similar piece and compare that to quotes from local furniture repair services.</div>

Q: Why is my wood furniture sticky after cleaning?

• <div>If your wood furniture is sticky after already cleaning it, it&rsquo;s likely from using too many polishes or waxes. You&rsquo;ll need to remove some of the excess wax with a cloth and warm water mixed with dish soap. You can then reapply the wax or polish afterwards, but try to use a much smaller amount and wipe away any excess.</div>

Q: When should you not use a wood filler?

• <div>If the scratch is large enough that it compromises the integrity of the wood, a wood filler probably won&rsquo;t be enough to fix the problem. In that case, you might need to sand and refinish the entire floor or replace a board. If you do use a filler, use one that&rsquo;s appropriate for the scratch. Water-based wood fillers work for small gaps or gouges, while epoxy has added strength to fill larger scratches and gaps.</div>
