Job description

Timber Repair & Maintenance Papakura, Papakura

Published on 8th September 2025

I had a leak in a windowsill which caused rot in one area. I had Jim’s ‘s handyman Service’s come to fix the windowsill. All he did was scrape some of the rotten & damp area out, bog it up, and sand it back. I used an interior sill paint once that area was dry. Within six months the windowsill has cracked and the same area feels like Weet-Bix. I’ve also had the window seals replaced. I am about to move Overseas and rent my house out, so I need to get this area fixed as soon as possible.
