Wood damage has a way of spreading when it is ignored. What starts as a soft spot, split trim board, cracked fascia, or minor rot around windows can quickly turn into a bigger repair if moisture keeps getting in. At Ross Painting Group, we handle wood repair as an important part of the painting process — not as an afterthought. Before any finish goes on, we repair or rebuild damaged wood areas so the surface is solid, sealed, and ready to last.
Our team repairs common exterior wood issues such as dry rot, cracked trim, damaged fascia, exposed edges, soft siding sections, and other problem areas caused by age, sun, moisture, or long-term wear. Depending on the condition, we may cut out and replace the damaged section, rebuild the area, or use the appropriate repair method to restore strength and shape before priming and painting.
A good paint job will only last if the surface underneath is sound. That is why we take time to address wood damage properly before moving into prep, primer, and finish coats. For homeowners looking for exterior painting and wood repair in San Diego, Ross Painting Group provides practical solutions, clean workmanship, and repairs that are built to support a longer-lasting final result.
From wood rot repair on fascia boards and window frames to wood split repair on decks, fences, and siding — we restore structural integrity and surface appearance before applying a protective finish. CA Licensed #1151078.
Our Wood Repair Process
All wood surfaces inspected. Damaged areas probed for extent of rot or splitting. Hidden moisture investigated.
Severely damaged sections removed and replaced with rot-resistant material (e.g., Azek, composite, or cedar).
Moderate damage consolidated and filled with 2-part epoxy wood filler — bonds permanently, accepts paint.
All repaired wood spot-primed, then painted or stained to match surrounding surfaces seamlessly.
Our Work
Before & After
Why Ross Painting Group
We probe every surface, not just what's visible. Hidden rot behind trim and window frames is the #1 cause of paint failure.
We use rot-resistant replacements and professional epoxy — not filler that cracks within a season.
We don't hand you back bare wood. Repairs are primed, painted, and blended before we leave.
Common Questions
Yes — epoxy wood filler bonds chemically to the remaining wood fiber and cures as hard as new wood. It's ideal for fascia, window sills, and decorative trim where replacement would be expensive.
We probe with an awl or moisture meter. Soft spots indicate active rot. We map the full extent before quoting — no surprises mid-project.
For exterior trim, we typically use Azek (PVC) or composite — they're moisture-proof and never rot again. We match the profile exactly and paint to match.
