An inexperienced sprayer of stain quickly created an unacceptable finish on the north side of the house as viewed in the first two pictures. Attempts to blend out the blotches was relatively successful but left the bottom half of the wall considerably darker than the top half as seen in picture three. One thing i have learned in 45 years of business is that all projects have problems. It is how those problems are solved that determines the success or failure of a project. Our builder has integrity and took responsibility for the problem. All of the stain on the bottom half of the wall had to be stripped off and the logs re-sanded and prepped for staining again. This was a multi-week effort by numerous people to correct the problem.
