How much does furniture refinishing cost?

• <div><p>The cost to refinish furniture varies significantly depending on the type of furniture, its material, and its age, but the average cost is about <b>$600 per piece</b>. For larger pieces or antique pieces that require greater care, you could pay up to around <b>$1,000 per piece </b>for refinishing. Small pieces of furniture like bar stools or dining chairs usually cost between <b>$100 and $400</b> each. Your refinishing professional might charge by the hour rather than by piece, in which case you would expect to spend <b>$40 to $100</b> per hour of work required.</p></div>

Why is my wood furniture sticky?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: When should you not use a wood filler?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can I use expanding foam to fill rotten wood?

• <div><p>Yes, you can fill rotten wood with expanding foam. You may prefer using an expanding foam treatment instead of wood filler since the latter can take a long time to dry. It may also provide an easier solution when you&rsquo;re dealing with smaller gaps. If you use expanding foam, allow it to cure for about 24 hours before you sand and prime it.</p></div>

Q: How long does wood filler take to dry?

• <div><p>It can take as little as 30 to 60 minutes for wood filler to dry, but some products take up to four hours. Always read labels to ensure you're following the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions. Water-based wood fillers typically take longer to dry than oil-based or epoxy-wood fillers, especially when applied to large areas or deep cracks. Wood putty won&rsquo;t dry completely, remaining slightly pliable.</p></div>

Honest. Direct. Reasonable. It's rare you find a skilled contractor like Bob. In the middle of a rush on contractors in southern VT Bob was able to find a way to complete a refinishing and polishing job over 3 days that transformed a neglected oak hardwood floor to a shiny, water sealed finish....

They were able to accommodate the move on rather short notice. Also, I noticed they would carry a box or piece of furniture into the new place and run back to the truck for more. They were aware that they were on the clock and mindful of the fact that I was paying for time. Very respectful and...
