- We fix the moisture source so the rot doesn't simply return next year
- Primed, rot-resistant replacement materials built for Houston humidity
- Repaired areas painted to match seamlessly — the fix is invisible

Our 5-Step Wood Rot Repair Process
- 1Inspection and moisture source.
We probe all suspect wood, map the full extent of the rot, and identify the moisture source — failed caulk, flashing, gutters, or ground contact.
- 2Remove and repair.
We remove decayed wood. Minor soft spots are treated and rebuilt with structural epoxy; compromised boards are fully replaced with primed, rot-resistant material.
- 3Correct the cause.
We fix the underlying moisture issue — re-caulking, sealing, adjusting flashing, or improving drainage — so the repair lasts.
- 4Prime and seal.
All new and repaired wood is primed on every face and the seams are caulked to lock out future moisture.
- 5Paint to match.
We finish-paint the repaired areas to blend seamlessly with your existing exterior, then walk the project with you for sign-off.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does wood rot repair cost in Houston?
Most wood rot repairs run $300–$2,500 depending on how many boards are affected and their location. Isolated trim or a single fascia board is on the low end; widespread fascia, soffit, or siding replacement is higher. We give an exact price after inspecting the damage — and we only replace what truly needs it.
Why does wood rot happen so often in Houston?
Houston's high humidity, frequent heavy rain, and long summers create the perfect environment for moisture intrusion and fungal decay. Fascia, soffits, window sills, door trim, and bottom siding boards are the most common victims because they take the most water exposure.
Do you replace the wood or just fill it?
It depends on the damage. Small, surface-level soft spots can be treated and filled with a structural epoxy filler. Boards that are structurally compromised or more than about 25% decayed are fully replaced with primed, rot-resistant material. We'll always tell you which approach your home needs and why.
Can you repair the rot and paint in the same project?
Yes — that's the ideal way to do it. We repair or replace the rotted wood, prime the new material, then paint it to match seamlessly with the rest of your exterior. Doing both together means one crew, one mobilization, and a finish that looks original.
How do you stop the rot from coming back?
Rot is a moisture problem first. We identify why water reached the wood — failed caulk, poor flashing, gutter overflow, or ground contact — and correct it as part of the repair. Then we use primed, sealed, rot-resistant materials and quality caulk so the fix actually lasts.
What areas do you repair?
Fascia boards, soffits, exterior trim and casing, window and door sills, wood siding, porch columns, posts, beams, and decorative millwork. If it's exterior wood and it's failing, we can repair or replace it.
