## Epoxy Has a Place. Filler Over Rot Does Not.

Greensboro searches for epoxy rot repair, so here's the professional truth. Structural epoxy consolidation works on small, early, caught-in-time spots — hardening sound-adjacent fibers where cutting would take more than the rot did. Deep rot is different: it gets cut out completely, back to sound wood, and rebuilt with a laminated piece fabricated to the original profile. What never works is the handyman classic — filler troweled over decay, painted, and rotten through again in a year.
- Early small spots — structural epoxy consolidation
- Deep rot — cut out and rebuilt in laminated wood
- Never filler over decay — that repair fails by design
- Windows from $375 · door frames from $475

## The Rebuilt Section Disappears Into the Original

The craft is in the match: our replacement pieces are fabricated to copy the original profile — every curve of a hundred-year-old sill, every bevel of a 90s sash — then spliced in, sanded, primed, painted and sealed. Under the paint, no seam. And because laminated wood has no appetite for water, the rebuilt section outlasts what the builder installed.
- Profiles copied from the original — no flat-board patches
- Sills, sashes, frames, brickmould and thresholds
- Sanded, primed, painted, sealed watertight

## Rotten Wood Repair in Greensboro — FAQ

**Q: Is epoxy wood repair legit, or a shortcut?**

A: Both exist, and the difference is the prep. Legit: structural epoxy consolidating a small early spot after every trace of loose decay is removed — professional practice, and we use it where it fits. Shortcut: filler troweled over active rot to hide it until the check clears. We probe first and tell you honestly which category your wood is in.

**Q: How do I know if my rot is 'early spot' or 'cut it out'?**

A: The screwdriver test we do on-site: if probing finds firm wood within a finger's depth, epoxy consolidation can hold the line. If the tool sinks — or the rot rings a joint where water pools — the section comes out and gets rebuilt from $375. Guessing wrong is why filler jobs fail; probing is why ours don't.

**Q: Will the repaired section look like a patch?**

A: No — the replacement piece is fabricated to copy the original profile, spliced in, and finished until the seam disappears under paint. On older Greensboro homes we match hundred-year-old moldings; the house never tells.

**Q: The rot keeps coming back on the same sill. Why?**

A: Because the previous repairs treated the symptom: filler traps moisture behind it, and untreated water sources keep feeding the decay. Our rebuild removes all compromised wood AND addresses why the water lands there — drip edges, caulk lines, paint film — so the cycle actually breaks.

**Q: Windows, doors or both?**

A: Both, plus the wood around them: sills, sashes, frames, jambs, brickmould, thresholds. Windows from $375, door wood from $475 — one crew, one written quote for everything soft.

**Q: How fast can you assess my wood in Greensboro?**

A: The Triad crew is local — assessments book within days, small epoxy work often finishes same-visit, and rebuilds follow once the piece is fabricated.
