Eastern rot repairs

Eastern rot repairs rot repairs and restoration on buildings new or old. I can also do final paint and replace broken glass. why replace when you can repair?

wood rot repairs and restoration done in traditional methods that will last, filler over the rot will not last!! there are many chemical wood rot treatments out there with big claims, but nothing beats the traditional way of cutting out rot and replacing with new timber. my basic repair will be done to the highest standard possible, with raw timber undercoated, in most cases you can not see where

the repair was done. will do my best to fit into your budget, from a basic repair on a rental or restoration on your period home. its good for the environment,and less cost than replacing! if your window is sticking and can not be opened, your missing out on the cool breeze and costing you more in energy bills. servicing all style of houses, from Georgian (prior to 1840), Victorian (1840-1900), Federation/Edwardian (1890-1920) and Inter-War (1920s/30s) to modern day styles. happy to give advice and free qoute, message or call

Most times I replace this corner cover trim completely, but in this case removing the old rusted blinds risked damaging them, so a more careful repair was the better option.
This type of repair is called a Dutch repair using a lap joint. With the right exterior-grade glue and tight joins, there’s no need for builder’s bog. Once painted, the repair is barely visible.
Primer is great for temporary protection, but because it’s porous it shouldn’t be left exposed for more than a week or so. Top coats should always be applied as soon as possible to properly protect the timber.
After 15 years in the business, these repairs have never let me or my clients down.

The best impression a home can give is that it has been well cared for and thoughtfully maintained since the day it was built — regardless of its age. Even the most modern styles will one day become dated.
I Grew up in this style of home, enjoy helping see our history live on.

Support a long term local, sad to see businesses like this closing down.

Big set of double-glazed windows brought back to life.
Client wanted repairs done without removing the glass — no problem. Rot was localised, so I cut it out and used timber infill to restore the structure properly.
Being Vic Ash hardwood, the damage hadn’t spread too far… caught it at the right time.
Fully prepped, primed, sanded and finished inside & out in Dulux “Night Sky” 👌
Another one saved instead of replaced.

Good example of why I don’t repair badly rotten sashes, its time consuming and easier for me to build a new sash.
This was previous repair by someone else, but the rot wasn’t fully removed—now it’s back and spreading.
After 15 years in the industry, I stand by my work. If something "rarely" fails, I fix it!

Street appeal matters — but so does what it says about the home.
Restored original windows give buyers confidence.
They show the property has been maintained with care over time, not just renovated for show.
This one: repaired, prepped, and finished to last.
Because quality work speaks for itself.

From decay to restored.
These windows had significant rot and previous patchwork repairs that hadn’t held up over time. We removed all affected timber, rebuilt the damaged sections, and finished with a full repaint to restore both strength and appearance.
It’s a great feeling knowing these windows are now built to last — ready to serve many more years, families, and memories.
Quality repairs done properly, not temporarily.

A previous “repair” had been attempted here…
Unfortunately, the rot was simply covered over — which only leads to bigger issues down the track.
We removed all affected timber, treated the area properly, and rebuilt the sill to ensure a long-lasting result.
Even had a bit of “help” on this one… cheers Harry 😄🔨
Quality repairs aren’t about quick fixes — they’re about doing it right the first time.
Before ➡️ After — what do you think?
