Exterior Carpentry Service

On exterior projects, CertaPro Painters of Plymouth regularly completes minor carpentry before painting exterior trim and siding. As much as possible, we match the substrate we are replacing (ie rough sawn cedar, smooth pine, or even using composite materials) so that the house looks cohesive after the repairs are made. We prime raw wood, caulk gaps as necessary, then apply 2 coats of paint on newly installed trim. We often provide only basic repairs but we do work with clients on serious repairs such as new siding, window sill damage, and installing new doors or shutters. Discuss the details of your carpentry needs with us at the time of the estimate.

Wood Rot Repair Services in Plymouth, MI

Exterior wood window shutters and trim work, door jams, soffits, and fencing – most frequently constructed of pine, redwood or cedar – are primarily used to enhance the appearance of multi-family residential and commercial structures throughout Plymouth, MI. However, each of these spaces will require routine maintenance in order to protect them from wood rot. Wood rot often results from excess moisture or insect damage.

When wood rot is not beyond repair, 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 any minor wood defects.

Severe wood rot will need to be completely replaced for long-term service. When replacing the wood, a stronger wood selection may also be necessary. New wood needs to be properly sanded and sealed to prevent recurring wood rot in the future. It is essential that you select the right sealant for your specific type of wood. Our painting contractors in Plymouth, MI can help you choose the best products for your unique wood rot repair project.
