There is no secret here…keep the water away from the wood.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Once present in a piece of wood
the only remedy is to replace the affected portion. This can lead to some unsightly
repairs if not performed by a professional carpenter.
In some circumstances a repair made with patching compound is a reasonable compromise,
if proper technique and preparation is used to assure bonding. Although temporary in nature these repairs can be cost effective where replacement is difficult.
In any case, factors contributing to the problem that can be identified and remedied
should be. Simply replacing a piece of wood is not remedy enough to resolve a wood
rot issue. Redirecting water, changing to a composite material, six side priming
prior to wood installation along with sealing, caulking and maintenance of the painted
surface are integral considerations in a complete repair.
Extensive
annual inspection of all caulked and painted surfaces combined with a
thorough cleaning and followed by touch up and repair of each and any small problem
will insure the integrity of the exterior envelope of your building.
