Wood Rot Repair in Overland Park, KS
We replace wood rot as part of our paint preparation, and as a repair in its own right.
About wood rot repair
Wood rot is the repair most often found rather than looked for. We replace it as part of preparing an exterior for paint, and as a job in its own right when a threshold, trim board or piece of siding has gone soft. Catching it early is the difference between replacing a board and replacing a wall.

What it costs
What moves the price on a wood rot repair job
Every job is different, so we will not pretend a number on a website means anything until we have seen yours. What we can tell you is what we look at when we work one out — and the estimate itself is free either way.
- How far the rot has travelled, which is usually further than it looks from outside
- Whether it has reached anything structural behind the visible damage
- Access - a threshold at ground level is a different job to fascia at roof height
- Whether the repair needs painting to match the surrounding surface
- Whether the water source causing it has been dealt with

Common questions
Wood Rot Repair questions we get asked
How do I know if I have wood rot?
Paint that is bubbling or flaking in one patch, trim that feels soft when you press it, or a threshold that gives underfoot. If you are unsure, send a photo with your estimate request and we will tell you what we think before coming out.
Do you paint over the repair?
Yes. We prime and repaint so the repair matches the surrounding surface, and we seal the joints so water does not get back in at the same spot.
How much does an estimate cost?
Nothing. Estimates are free and there is no obligation. Call us or send the form and we will arrange a time to come out, look at the job properly and give you a price in writing.
Does sending photos help?
A lot. Photos let us judge the scope and the materials before we arrive, which makes the estimate more accurate and sometimes saves a visit altogether. Text or email them over and we will factor them in.
