Wood Rot Repair

Wood rot poses a threat regardless of where you live, but here in the Northeast it’s particularly problematic. Elevated moisture levels and our often wild winter weather leave your surfaces under tremendous strain, making rot inevitable if you don’t proactively protect against it.

Where Should You Check for Wood Rot?

Here are a few key places to routinely check:

  • Window sills
  • Thresholds
  • Decks
  • Trim and moulding around windows
  • Eaves
  • Wood siding
  • Anywhere wood meets ground, or makes contact with foliage (we recommend keeping landscaping trimmed back from your siding, porch, and/or deck structure)

Wood rot isn’t always obvious, making a knowledgeable inspection key. Identifying and catching the problem early is the best way to protect your home and your budget.

Wood Rot Repairs in Rhode Island

Our process includes:

  • A thorough, expert inspection across all at-risk areas
  • We’ll develop a proposed plan for either wood repair (for minor cases) or wood replacement (for more extensive issues)
  • Expert carpentry services
  • A final application of paint or stain to protect your surfaces

Remember, the very best way to prevent wood rot is to stop it from taking root altogether. The most effective way to do this is to keep your exterior paint and stain in good repair, maintaining a healthy layer of protection against the elements.

I cannot say enough good things about DMP. They came out in the spring to provide a quote. Their estimate was right in line with others, but their responsiveness set them apart even during that process. By the time we returned the contract they were booking into October. Given the rainy summer we were convinced there was no way we'd get the house painted this year. We were wrong! In early September they called to do the power wash and were back to start the prep/paint two weeks later. They weren't just on-time, they were early. It was quite a sight to see up to nine people here each day. Each team member was incredibly professional, kind, organized, and thorough. They took pains to do a great job on the prep (and there was a lot of it). Such a hard working and friendly crew. They were here each day by 6:30 am and worked hard throughout. They did an outstanding job! I'd give more than five stars if that was an option. Thank you, Dennis Moffitt painting!

The guys from DMP were awesome. Always prompt, cleaned up after each day, were very friendly and went above and beyond to make sure my wife and I had a great experience. They even cleaned my ceiling fan in a vaulted room which I wasn't expecting. Job well done DMP family. I'd recommend them to my friends and family anytime.

We had used Moffitt a few years ago to do the exterior of our home and was very pleased with their work. We had a bunch of settling cracks to repair along with some wear and tear inside. They showed up when they said they would, were neat, and cleaned up well. I would use them again.

This is our second time using Dennis Moffitt Painting. The first time was for the interior of our home. They did such an excellent job the first time we decided to use them to paint the exterior of the house. Our home is quite old and also required lots of carpentry work as well, which they also did. Not only did they do a great job but they were really committed to keeping on budget. They have to be the most professional group we have ever worked with. We knew we were in good hands when we hired them.
I wouldn't use anyone else. Thank guys!

We were very appreciative of how prompt the crew was every day, how the men cleaned up at the end of their work day, and their courtesy and personal cleanliness. As non-smokers, we also appreciated that none of the men had a cigarette smell about them. We had our 1800 square foot home done, including ceilings, and every time the crew began a new room they checked with us for our approval of the color we chose. We are very pleased with the finished project and would highly recommend Dennis Moffat Painting .

In November 2021 we needed some additional painting work done, so we contacted DMP without hesitation. We had a different crew this time and they were just as professional as the crew we had before. The work was performed promptly. The crew leader verified with us the colors we wanted used and followed up with us to make sure we were happy with how it looked before they completed the room. The clean up after the was done was excellent, and the work was very professional. We would recommend Dennis Moffitt Painting to anyone who is in need of a professional painting crew that will get it right the first time.

I recently moved to RI and needed some help painting 3 interior rooms in the new house and choose DMP based on their reviews AND they had quoted me a very good price versus another local company with good reviews. I really enjoyed every part of my experience with DMP. The person who came to give me a quote, the person who scheduled the job, and the 3 gentlemen who did the job were all extremely pleasant and I would hire them again on that alone. We have a 1 yr old and a 15 year old dog who is very protective of our baby, and all 3 guys we extremely attentive and sensitive to our situation, having to paint in the house for a couple of days. The work was perfect and has made a major difference in the feel of our home. I truly enjoyed every part of the experience working with DMP, I would use them again in a heartbeat, I will use them again for any painting needs, and I would recommend them to any of my friends and family who are looking for a great painting company.

I feel like I have a brand new kitchen after they painted my cabinets they came out better than I expected. The workers were excellent and courteous polite and I would recommend them.

I am the executive director of a small non-profit in Peace Dale, RI. We used Dennis Moffitt Painting to refresh our organization. They worked with us on a price we could afford and from the beginning to the end they were nothing but professional. I highly recommend them for any job that they can do for you. Excellent local company and you should always support local.

We had Dennis Moffitt Painting repair our ceiling in our great room, they smoothed/replastered/painted our ceiling and it looks wonderful. They also patched holes in the walls and repainted the walls and we are very pleased with the outcome. Office staff coordinated and communicated well and the work crew showed up on time consistently and put in a good day's work everyday, and were responsive to our requests. The crew was neat, clean, and pleasant, and they cleaned-up after themselves and also helped with furniture moving. Kudos to all the staff and workers at Dennis Moffitt Painting for their great work ethic!
