Wood Rot Repair & Painting Services
Wood rot can be detrimental to your home if left untreated. The primary cause of wood rot is excess moisture and burrowing insects. When water gets into or under the wooden structures at your home, it can create a pooling effect that creates the wood rot. This can happen to any wood surface at your home including exterior wood window shutters and trim work, door jams, soffits, fascia, and even fencing. In order to prevent this pesky problem from occurring, wood maintenance is a must!
If you have noticed wood rot at your home, CertaPro Painters® of Charlotte-Matthews are here for you. We know just how to repair damaged wood, and we will even create a plan of action to follow when completing your project. Our team can make your exterior wood surfaces look like new.

How can I spot rotting wood?
There are a few telltale warning signs of wood rot. You can often inspect the exterior of your home, or consult with a local professional to find existing wood damage. One way to check is to inspect the boards along your home from top to bottom. Check for any soft spots or cracking. If your wood is soft when pressed, this is a sure sign of wood rot. Any affected areas should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent further damage.
How to Prevent Wood Rot
If you are worried about wood rot impacting your home, it is best to maintain your wood surfaces with paint or stain. If your home exterior is in need of a fresh coat, we’ve got you covered. Applying these moisture resistant solutions is the best way to keep your home safe. It is also a good idea to watch your caulking. When this wears away due to general wear and tear, excess moisture can get under your wood surfaces as well.
Fascia & Soffit Repair
Here at CertaPro Painters® of Charlotte-Matthews, we also offer our clients expert fascia and soffit repair services. Many of the homes in our community have wood fascia and soffits. These structures exist to prevent moisture and insects from wreaking havoc on your home. While these exterior surfaces are built to last, oftentimes during a storm or because of age, they can start to wear away or also experience wood rot. If you think you may be dealing with a faulty or damaged fascia or soffit, reach out to us for a repair today.
Very professional and friendly. They made sure the areas were covered and cleaned up after they finished.
