        "text": "Before the finishing crew arrives, homeowners should clear furniture, wall decor, and window treatments away from log walls. Move freestanding furniture toward the center of the room or into adjacent spaces so technicians have uninterrupted access for ladders and scaffold setups. Disclose any past treatments used on the wood, such as heavy waxes, unknown oils, or chemical sealers, because these affect stain adhesion. In homes throughout the greater Denver area, seasonal shifts can dry out timber quickly, so noting any new joint gaps or settling cracks before staining helps the contractor address framing and finish gaps together.",
