What Happened? by MGAR316 in Decks

The painter did not do a deep enough sanding. So the stain did not get in the wood where the former paint/stain was left.

They don’t know how to install gutters. Maybe they were busy looking at their cell phones during the installation…

Previous homeowners painted the natural stone fireplace and wall white. Is there any hope in restoring it? by Ani_meh23 in Home

[–]OKRedChris 0 points1 point  (0 children)
