Protecting the walls in your home will keep your home safe and help your home continue to look brand new. Protect your drywall with proper repairs and caution when moving furniture. Rosewood Painting And Remodel offer drywall and sheetrock repair services for your home. If you have noticed holes, water damage, or scratches, contact our professionals as soon as possible. 

1- Keep Furniture Away From The Wall

One of the easiest ways to protect your drywall is to keep furniture from knocking into the walls consistently. Placing your furniture a bit away from the wall will prevent it from scuffing or scratching your walls when you sit down, rock in chairs, or adjust the furniture. 

When moving into a home, keeping the furniture that you are moving far away from walls can help reduce scratches and dents. Moving furniture requires extra precaution to ensure that damage is not done to your drywall. Hiring professional movers will ensure that your walls and door frames do not see damage while moving furniture into a home. 

2- Use Door Stoppers

Doors can hit your walls with sharp corners or doorknobs, leaving dents, holes, or scratches behind. Especially if you have children or pets, using door stops can be a great way to protect your drywall. Door stops help stop the doorknob from hitting the adjacent wall too hard or at all. Door stops can save you from repairing consistent damage. 

3- Make Quality Repairs

If you have damaged your drywall or need to fix holes from previous owners, leave these repairs to the professionals. Repairing drywall and sheetrock by yourself can lead to more problems and damage down the road. 

Our professionals at Rosewood can help keep your home in the best shape possible. Repairs require special tools and plaster to keep them filled while you paint and move forward with your life. If you want to protect your drywall starts by taking action and making the investment to take proper care of it. 

4- Remedy Water Damage

Experiencing a pipe leak can cause major widespread damage to your drywall. If you have not been able to detect the water damage, it can lead to mold growth and terrible bacteria lurking in your home. Having routine plumbing or home inspections will help protect your drywall and your entire home. If your area has experienced heavy storms or cold weather, it may be best to have your home inspected to prevent water damage from occurring. The sooner you take initiative for your home, the healthier and safer your space will be.

Use the sop-up method can be used to control current water leaks and prevent spreading damage to other parts of the wall. Calling a professional plumber or repair team as soon as possible will yield the best results and save you from more costly repairs. 

5- Proper Prep Before Installing Wallpaper

When you upgrade the look of your walls with paint or wallpaper, it is important to prep beforehand. In order to protect your drywall you will need to apply primer which will be easier to remove in the future.

Homeowners of log homes have unique living situations and have natural beauty consistently available in their homes. These types of homes have become more popular over recent years, but homeowners need to learn about how to take care of them before they commit to building one.

Rosewood Painting And Remodel can help professionally apply stain or seal to keep your home from irreplaceable damage. Homeowners in Utah can benefit from our multitude of home renovation services. 

Makes The Wood Look New

Refinishing a home or any piece of furniture will bring some life back to the wood. Log home refinishing will help to make your home look freshly built or repainted. Refinishing helps your home to have a better curb appeal and increase its value. 

Those who build or live in a log cabin or home do so because of its natural beauty and uniqueness. Refinishing can help the wood look polished, and bright, and make your log home a statement piece in the area. Helping to keep your home looking its best may take some money and time, but it will be worth it in the long run. 

Restoration Doesn’t Let Chemicals Into Your Home

If you have painted any room or applied stain to a deck, you have probably noticed that usually come with strong fumes and chemicals that require ventilation. While a stain or refinishing product may have chemicals in it, these chemicals will not seep into your home. 

Log home refinishing will help give your logs a consistent color and avoid your home looking patchy or rotting. 

Prevents Wood Deterioration

Wood deterioration can come after trees have been cut down and are exposed to harsh weather. Refinishing the wood or applying a sealant can help slow or prevent the deterioration of wood. Before Rosewood can begin your log home refinishing project, we will complete an inspection to check for damages and repair them before they become more serious. 

Refinishing can help prevent further damage to your wood. If the logs are sealed appropriately they will remain in good condition and be more resistant to environmental factors. 

Which Is Better For Your Home, Stain Or Seal?

Stain penetrates the pores of the wood and enhances the natural color of the wood. Stains give protection from UV light, are water-repellant, and often last longer than sealants. Wood stain tends to be more expensive than sealant but is a good investment to help the appearance of the wood. 

Wood sealer is a transparent barrier to repel water, insects, and more. They are not as effective at blocking light as a stain, which means that the color of your wood could fade faster. Sealants will need to be reapplied every few years. 

Choosing the right stain or sealant will depend on a few factors, the climate you live in, what color you want your wood to be, and how old your home is. If you want help determining what stain is best for your specific home, contact our professionals. 

When To Know Your Log Home Needs Refinishing

Each log home will have different needs and different deterioration rates. Depending on the darkness of your stain will determine how often it will need to be reapplied. A general rule of thumb is that your home should be resealed or restrained every couple of years. Rosewood offers annual maintenance and application for your log home. Don’t put off caring for your home any longer.

Homeowners can see damage to baseboards and trim around the home over time. When you look into replacing the baseboards and trim, consider replacing the trim and flooring together. Because they are located in close proximity and they work hand in hand, remodeling both together will save you time and money. Rosewood can help you replace trim and flooring together to improve the look of your home. Our team knows how much damage your flooring can see throughout your lifetime, so give your home a facelift with our experts. 

1- Replacing The Flooring Requires To Remove The Baseboards

If you are looking to replace just your flooring, you will have to remove the baseboards anyway in order to install it properly. Replacing trim and flooring together makes the most sense because taking off baseboards could also damage your flooring. Keeping your life intact and saving you time can be made easier by scheduling these two projects together. 

2- Make Sure You Have The Right Tools

With any home remodeling project comes the need for quality tools. Having the right tools will help make the remodeling process easier, especially when you are doing all of it yourself. Common tools needed for replacing trim are a utility knife, a pry bar, a miter saw, measuring tapes, hammers, and a nail gun. Knowing how to use the tools correctly is also important before you start ripping up flooring and trim. Replacing trim and flooring together will require some of the same tools, so purchasing the right ones will save you money. Replacing trim and flooring together is just one way to save you money during a remodel by combining resources.

3- Buy More Trim Than You Think You Need

Before beginning any project, you should measure the space for how much product you will need. While you can take measurements for the trim you need, it is a good practice to purchase more than you need. This gives you some wiggle room if you make a mistake, cut at the wrong angle, or there is a problem with the product. 

Finding the balance between overbuying and underbuying may be tricky, but you won’t want to break your budget just for fear of ruining the trim you truly need. Taking the time to plan out your project and do research can set you up for success.

4- Paint Trim Before Installation

When you are replacing trim and flooring together, you need to remember what order is best to complete the projects in. Painting the trim before you install it back on your wall will prevent you from dripping paint onto your newly installed flooring. 

Painting beforehand will also help you to see if the trim color matches the flooring and wall. Different paint batches, while they may be the same color, can look different over time. Painting the trim before it is installed helps homeowners avoid frustration in repainting and replacing it. 

5- Measure Door Clearance Or Replace Them

If you are already combining home projects, replacing your doors can be another good timely project. Replacing the trim around your doors can also change the fit of your original doors, so finding new ones in a new style may be your only option. 

Changing doors will increase the value of your home and can help to move from room to room go much smoother. When you are replacing trim and flooring together, including new doors can make the whole home complete. Choose doors that fit your style or the function of the room. For example, choosing doors for a bedroom may need to be thicker for privacy, whereas closet doors may have decorative paneling.
