My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Tips on refinishing table

19 years ago

I have sanded a wood table that had a water ring or some type damage and even after lots of sanding the wood is lighter in that area. Will it take stain? Would a wood conditioner help? Thanks for any help.
