Project Scope

The details that determine whether wood can be repaired, replaced, or painted

Exterior Wood Review

Checked trim, fascia, siding details, caulk joints, and moisture-prone areas.

Repair Planning

Separated cosmetic paint prep from wood that needed repair or replacement before finish work.

Paint Prep Coordination

Planned repair, primer, and coating steps so the final exterior finish had a stronger foundation.

Homeowner Problem

Peeling paint and soft exterior details can make a home look worn, but the bigger concern is moisture. The homeowner needed to know what could be repaired before painting and what needed closer attention.

Outcome

The project story shows how wood rot repair, exterior prep, and painting planning work best together. Fix the damaged wood first, then build the paint system on a sound surface.
