Carpentry Repairs & Woodworking in Machesney Park & Rockford, IL
Rotten trim, sills, fascia and boards replaced, and woodworking done - then painted to match, so the repair disappears into the house.
What carpentry repairs looks like with us
Paint cannot fix rotten wood, and painting over it only hides the problem until the next thaw. Affordable Painting Services replaces damaged trim, sills, fascia and boards and paints them with the rest of the job, and does carpentry and woodworking inside the house as well. His old website lists "minor carpentry" and "rotten wood replacement" as part of exterior work. A customer wrote: "We are happy with the painting and trim work. You made it seamless."
What’s included
Where exterior wood rots first
Damage almost always starts where water sits or runs:
- Window sills and the bottoms of door frames.
- The ends of trim boards and fascia, where end grain soaks up water.
- Behind gutters and downspouts that overflow.
- The lowest boards near soil, mulch or a patio.
Replacing only what has gone
Most houses do not need all their trim replaced. Rot tends to concentrate in a few places. Replacing just the damaged pieces, then painting so they blend in, is usually the smartest thing to do before an exterior repaint.
