Trim Repair in Colorado Springs, CO

When it comes to exterior trim repair, Colorado Springs homeowners often find that the biggest problem they have to deal with is wood rot. Timber only rots when it's exposed to high moisture levels, so it makes sense that wood components that are outside and exposed to the elements would be more susceptible to rotting. Wood rot causes timber to soften and crumble apart, which looks unattractive—but the bigger problems are that it can allow for heat transfer to occur and provide an opportunity for insect infestations.

Wood rot eats away at certain parts of the wood fiber (lignin or cellulose, depending on the type of wood rot). Since parts of the timber are actually gone, there's no real way to restore rot-damaged wood to its former condition. Replacing the affected timber is usually the best Colorado Springs trim repair solution, but it may also be possible to fill in missing areas with epoxy and paint over it to conceal the repair. Some of the other signs that indicate you need Colorado Springs trim repair are:

• Flaking or peeling paint
