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.

Building a barn board bath vanity.

13 years ago
I am having a barn board vanity made for my half bath ( vitreous china top) and my cabinet maker is looking for something to seal the wood. I don't believe anything is out there and had just planned on being extra CAREFUL and vacuuming the boards. Is there there any type of sealant on your bath vanity?

    You can maintain raw or non-sealed antique wood in moist areas with mineral oil occasionally. Simply wipe on and wipe off excess. Dry wood soaks it up and becomes more water repellant.
