We are left with marks from the sanding, uneven staining and finish coat. Jon did say that he would come back and make it right but we decided to just do the work to correct ourselves. Just don't think that refinishing hardwoods is something he does very often."

The job requires tools such as a hammer drill and auger and some heavy digging. Proper placement and window well installation are critical to preventing water from leaking into the window.
