The repair required cutting away the rotted portion of the window sash and replacing the rotted wood with cedar boards cut to size on a portable table saw. Any gaps were filled in with foam or wood putty depending on where the void was. Then, after snding the wood putty smooth, the window was ready to be primed and painted.
A previous rotted window repair can be seen in this video in which we removed the window:
• How to Repair a Rotted...
In this video, home renovation brothers Dave and Rich show you how to repair a rotted window frame with very basic tools.
Repairing a rotted window frame can save hundreds of dollars and can be accomplished with just a few simple tools. Knowing how to fix a window frame can lessen the complications that can result from having to replace a window, to say nothing of the costs associated with window replacement. The window in this video is an aluminum clad wood window. This window frame repair was due to water damage and wood decay and wood dry rot.
To repair the window, the aluminum frame was detached from the rotted wood. Then a replacement piece of wood was cut and glued in place. Fixing a window with dry rot or water damage can add years to the life of the window as well as eliminate the need to throw the window in a landfill.
The tools needed to fix the window frame can be as simple as a cross cut saw, a back cut saw, a chisel, hammer and a tape measure.
A table saw, router, or multi-tool could greatly speed up the repair.
