Rotten Window Repair: Restore Your Windows to Perfection
Wooden windows add charm and character to any home, but over time, exposure to moisture and harsh weather conditions can lead to rotting frames. If left untreated, this damage can compromise your home's insulation, security, and aesthetics. At Artan Window Solutions, we specialize in professional rotten window repair, restoring your windows to their original beauty and functionality.
Why Do Wooden Windows Rot?
Understanding why window frames deteriorate can help homeowners take preventive action. Some of the most common causes include:
1. Moisture Exposure
Wood absorbs water from rain, humidity, and condensation. Over time, this leads to swelling, softening, and eventually rot.
2. Poor Ventilation
Lack of airflow prevents trapped moisture from evaporating, accelerating the decay process.
3. Lack of Maintenance
Failure to repaint, seal, or treat wooden windows regularly makes them vulnerable to deterioration.
4. Insect Damage
Wood-boring insects like termites and carpenter ants weaken the structure, increasing the risk of rot.
5. Sun Damage
Prolonged exposure to UV rays causes the wood to dry out, crack, and lose its protective coating, making it more susceptible to moisture penetration.
Signs Your Wooden Windows Need Repair
If you notice any of the following signs, it’s time to consider professional rotten window repair:
✔ Soft or Crumbling Wood – Press your finger against the frame. If it feels spongy, the wood is rotting.
✔ Visible Mold or Mildew – Dark spots or fungal growth indicate excessive moisture.
✔ Peeling Paint or Cracks – Exposed wood without proper sealing is prone to absorbing water.
✔ Drafts and Air Leaks – Rotting frames lose their insulating properties, allowing cold air in.
✔ Difficulty Opening or Closing Windows – Warped or deteriorating wood affects smooth operation.
Ignoring these problems can lead to more extensive damage, requiring full window replacement rather than repair.
