Common questions  Stainesai
The cost is influenced by the size of the area, type of wood, choice of stain and varnish, and any additional preparation required.
Typically, it takes 2-3 days, including drying time between coats for a standard-sized room.
The process involves sanding the timber, applying grain filler if needed, staining to the desired colour, and applying multiple coats of varnish or hardwax oil.
Yes, you can supply your own materials, but ensure they are suitable for the job. Always confirm with your tradesperson before work begins.
