What Causes Wood Rot in Nashville?
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 on your property including wooden window frames, trims, soffits, fascia, and even fencing. Regular maintenance on your home is essential to stopping wood rot. If rotten wood is painted over, the symptoms will only worsen. Contact CertaPro Painters of Nashville for a free wood rot consultation.

My experience with CertaPro Painters was 100% awesome from start to finish. Kelly was prompt with our initial appointment and quoted on the spot. I found the price to be extremely competitive and their timing worked for my schedule as well. The painters arrived on time and did a quick, efficient, and most importantly, quality job in painting my kitchen cabinets. They were professional as well as respectful in my home. I am extremely pleased with the outcome! The kitchen looks and feels new. I would definitely recommend CertaPro painters!

How to Fix Rotten Wood in Nashville
When wood rot is not severe a suitable solution may be to simply sand smooth and adequately seal it to avoid further damage. Smaller deteriorated spaces and holes can be filled with wood putty, then sanded, repainted or stained. These short-term rotten wood solutions may be sufficient to repair minor wood defects.
More severe wood rot however needs to be completely replaced for long-term service. When replacing the wood, a better wood selection may also be necessary. New wood too needs to be properly sanded and sealed to prevent recurring wood rot in the future. Many types of sealants are available and choosing the proper sealant is vital for your wood type and climate. Selecting the wrong sealant can lead to additional damage to your wood. This is where the professionals at CertaPro Painters® can help.
