        "text": "A full refinishing project for a typical log home or mountain cabin usually takes between 1 and 3 weeks of active work, depending on weather and scope. Prep work—including washing or media blasting—takes several days, followed by mandatory drying time to ensure wood moisture levels drop below recommended thresholds before applying finishes. Repairing compromised chinking, filling checks, and applying multiple coats of stain and clear protective sealant require adequate curing intervals between coats. Rain, high winds, and temperature drops can extend this timeline, making dry, moderate weather ideal for exterior log work.",
