Q: What causes wood furniture to bubble up?

• <div><p>When water penetrates wood, the wood swells, causing the wood and veneer to separate. This separation creates bubbles on the surface of your furniture. If water spills on wood veneer, it needs to be dried ASAP. Surface spills can cause minor damages like white spots and blushing, but if you&rsquo;re slow to action, you&rsquo;re looking at more work&mdash;and spending&mdash;to restore your wood veneer.</p></div>

Q: How much does professional refinishing cost?

• <div><p>If you have decided that hiring a professional to refinish your floors will be faster and more satisfactory, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $2,500. To get a better idea of what your hardwood refinishing project will cost with a professional, multiply the project&rsquo;s square footage by the average price of $4 per square foot.</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: How long does wood stain last?

• <div><p>Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it&rsquo;s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if I spill wood refinishing oil?

• <div><p>If you spill wood refinishing oil, wipe up the liquid quickly without spreading the stain and then use soap and water or a stain remover to get rid of the spot. Since the product is oil based, using a detergent like dish soap or a thinner like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/paint-thinner-vs-mineral-spirits.htm">mineral spirits</a> will help take out the stain. You may need to repeat this process multiple times to remove the stain.</p></div>

Bob refinished a bed for me that had been stored in the attic and had sustained some water damage. He also helped with some loose chair back. All his work was nicely done and in a very timely fashion. He picks up and delivers. I highly recommend him.

I gave them the gift card and that was it. Lowe's is closer to my house and I would rather go closer. The customer service is fine. All I did was pick up furniture polish or something and went to the counter and checked out with my gift card. I had a very positive experience.

One installer arrived in the morning, worked his tail off, sometimes in the rain, temperature was in the 50's, most of the work was done inside the house. I removed curtains and blinds, moved furniture from around the windows and door. The price was more than expected, but worth it.

It mostly went OK. The interior work looks excellent, and the exterior work is OK given the recent weather and the condition of the deck prior to painting. My biggest complaint is the care that was given to our property and items during the painting. We just discovered 3 days later that our...

He did a fabulous job. He added piping around the couch arms, back and bottom and made it look like something from a high end furniture store. He takes a lot of pride in his work and it shows. I would recommend him to anyone who wants a quality job at decent prices.
