    Redid our whole house facia boards with fiber cement boards. Now no wood rot can set in. Had to repair some of the wood behind as this was also rotten. Sadly we don't get proper nature wood in SA most of the pine warps like crazy. If you want decent wood for repair it costs an arm and a leg

    If you replace something, especially something that has rotted from water damage, you have to rectify the cause or you have done nothing. What I could see was no overhang of the shingles and improper drip edge install with no spacing behind the drip edge. Like you said the customer was what dictated the work to be done.

  • @highqualityhomemaintenance7565

    All in all, that's nice work. One thing you may want to look into is the step flashing that should have been installed right above your repair. I believe that is the cause of the rot.

    When I had my fascia removed and replaced with new wood I made sure I bought some metal and had it formed or bent to place it over the wood so it would wrap around. I put paper underneath it and tucked it under the edge guard or flashing. Hopefully I will never have another wood rot problem, I hope it was worth the investment. Paint only goes so far, eventually it will penetrate and soak in the wood. I hate the idea of having so much wood on the outside of the home.

    What causes this to rot? Is it just time and weather exposure?
    i have a spot and im afraid if i dont find the leak it wont do any good for me to replace it. Whats is the best way to find a leak? The panels inside my house have water damage i replaced them 2 yrs ago when i moved in because it was rottten. Oh yeah did i mention all of this is around the fireplace? i had someone tar around the base of it and it seems to still leak. I dont use it should i cap the top? Thanks fo this i think i am confident in starting this project after watching this video

    • @Megatron995
      @Megatron995 Před 5 lety

      That's the flashing around the chimney that does that. It can take a few tries to get a contractor who does it right. Try a licensed roofer, if you can get one who'll take little jobs. I'm bothering to respond 8 months later because a chimney-to-roof leak is a problem that tends to recur.
      Also, don't cap the top for a leak. That only stops rain from coming into the fireplace - it'll do nothing to seal the chimney to the shingles, which is what needs to be done.

    I'm replacing everything with PVC. The end of rot and the end of painting.

    I'm Interested in starting my own handyman service. I do building maintenance now. You got any advice for starting up?

      Start doing side jobs on nights and weekends. I did side work for years before going out on my own. It helps build a customer base so that when you finally do go at it full time you have lots of work.
