Taping off places that need to be protected . Once that was done , the first big task was to re - stain the woodwork . One thing I 'll say for this house is that it has nice six - panel doors , which were originally stained a medium brown rather than painted . Unfortunately all the doorframes and the baseboards ( too narrow and too obviously off the cheap builder 's shelf to be graceful ) were stained to match , setting the whole place instantly and unmistakably in the 1980 's .
Why might I be restaining the woodwork in the house ?
Pick the best answer from the following options:
