OUR PROCESS

01 Quote

Starting your wood rot restoration journey with us is simple. Visit our contact page and fill out the form. We’ll reach out to you within a day or two to schedule a visit from the Owner opf the business Ben. During this visit, Ben will evaluate the wood rot damage and provide an immediate, all-inclusive quote. You’ll have the chance to ask questions and discuss the restoration process, ensuring you have all the information you need to make an informed decision.

02 Repair

Our technicians start by exposing and treating damaged timber, then create a tailored restoration plan. The windowsill is aligned for weatherproofing, and we repair or replace damaged framework using marine ply in-lays for durability. If the sash is damaged, we repair it on-site or off-site if needed, ensuring security. Gaps and joints are sealed, putty is applied where necessary, and all repaired timber is primed and undercoated, protecting it until the final coats of paint are applied.

03 Inspect

Once our technicians have completed your window restoration the final inspection will be undertaken as a quality control process. Your Lead Technician will take the time to clearly explain all aspects and workings of the restoration. This inspection is to make sure you are happy with your completed window restoration.

WHAT OTHERS SAYING

“Highly recommend. The team is so professional from providing quotes, measuring the window and coming for the repair. James and Jack attended my job, they are so friendly, patient, and professional. They completed the job according to what is on the quoted job sheet. My window is now like brand new. I also used the painters they recommend, the timing is perfect and now my window is like brand new.”

Yes, it can be. If the fungal spores reach the surface of the timber and become air-born, they can cause shortness of breath, asthma and hay fever-like symptoms. Certain dangerous funguses can also grow from the affected wood rot which can also be hazardous.

In its early stages, the rot will appear as cracking paint. You will then notice that the timber becomes soft to touch and finally you will see crumbly, flakey timber which will pull apart with your fingers. It is generally darker (wet) than healthy timbers. You can head to our gallery to see some examples of wood rot before it was repaired by Stop The Rot.

Wood rot is like that tupperware container with an unidentified substance that's been sitting at the back of your fridge a little too long; the longer you leave it, the worse it gets.
