We design, manufacture, and install custom salon and spa furniture. This includes styling stations, reception desks, retail displays, and other custom-built fixtures tailored to your space, workflow, and brand.
All of our furniture is proudly manufactured in the United States in our Iowa-based facility, where each piece is built and quality-checked by our team.

1. Why is my spa furniture wobbling or uneven?
This is often caused by an uneven floor or improper leveling during installation.
Solution: Use adjustable leveling feet (if available) or place shims under the base to stabilize the unit. Always ensure the floor is flat before final placement.
2. Why is the surface cracking, peeling, or bubbling?
This usually happens due to moisture exposure, poor sealing, or low-quality laminate/finish.
Solution: Use moisture-resistant materials, reseal exposed edges, and avoid prolonged water contact. Replace damaged panels if needed.
3. Why are drawers or doors sticking or not closing properly?
Humidity changes can cause wood expansion or hardware misalignment.
Solution: Adjust hinges and drawer slides, and ensure proper ventilation to reduce moisture buildup.
4. Why is the furniture swelling or warping over time?
Excess humidity or water exposure is the most common cause in spa environments.
Solution: Use water-resistant materials (marine-grade plywood, PVC, or sealed MDF) and maintain proper room humidity levels.
5. Why are finishes fading or discoloring?
This can be caused by strong cleaning chemicals, UV exposure, or poor-quality coatings.
Solution: Use spa-safe, non-abrasive cleaners and apply UV-resistant finishes or protective coatings.
6. Why is hardware (handles, hinges, rails) loosening?
Frequent use and vibration in busy spa environments can loosen fittings.
Solution: Periodically tighten screws and upgrade to commercial-grade stainless steel hardware.
7. Why does my custom spa furniture not fit perfectly in the space?
This usually results from inaccurate measurements or wall/floor irregularities.
Solution: Always measure multiple points in the space and account for trim, outlets, and uneven walls before ordering.
8. Why is there a strong odor coming from new spa furniture?
New materials, adhesives, or finishes may release VOCs initially.
Solution: Allow furniture to air out in a well-ventilated space for several days before use.
1. Why are my lights flickering or not staying consistently bright?
This is often caused by a failing or underpowered power supply.
Solution: Replace the power supply with a properly rated unit that matches the voltage and wattage requirements of your system.
2. Why won’t my lighting system turn on at all?
A complete power failure or disconnected wiring may be the cause.
Solution: Check all connections and replace the power supply if no output is detected.
3. Why are some sections of my lights dimmer than others?
This is usually due to voltage drop or insufficient power distribution.
Solution: Use a higher-capacity power supply or add additional power injection points.
4. Why are my lights randomly turning on and off?
This can happen when the power supply is unstable or overheating.
Solution: Ensure proper ventilation and replace the power supply if instability continues.
5. Why do my lights change behavior after running for a while?
Thermal overload or aging components are common causes.
Solution: Allow proper cooling and replace worn-out power supplies or controllers if needed.
6. Why is my controller not responding properly?
A weak or inconsistent power source can affect controller performance.
Solution: Verify power stability and replace the power supply if fluctuations are detected.
7. Why do my lights reset or flash when multiple devices are connected?
The power supply may be overloaded.
Solution: Upgrade to a higher wattage power supply or distribute the load across multiple units.
