THE BEST SOLUTION FOR DAMAGE AND WOOD ROT IN EXTERNAL DOORS

Do you have a wooden (front) door? Especially the outside of a front or back door is very susceptible to wood rot. Fungi caused by exposing the wood to all kinds of weather conditions, especially sun and rain, can destroy your door. The edges of a door weather and the door lets rainwater from outside through or no longer seals properly as a result. Moisture, in particular, is the culprit here. That means wooden doors indoors, such as the bathroom door or other entrance doors to damp rooms, can also be affected by wood rot. However, because doors are often painted, it is difficult to tell if wood rot is present.

EAZYFIX’s How-To-Fix Coach tells you how to spot wood rot in doors. Instantly replacing your entire door when you discover wood rot is almost never necessary! Apart from stopping wood rot, you can also repair all kinds of other damage to doors with EAZYFIX: for example, remove deep scratches or fill holes in doors.

WHY YOU SHOULD NOT DELAY A REPAIR

If you find wood rot while maintaining your house, it is important to do something about it as soon as possible. This is because if it is left untreated, leaks and draughts can occur. This will cause the rotting process to continue, until you eventually have to replace a window frame.

Fortunately, replacing the entire framework is almost never necessary: window frame repair with EAZYFIX’s Wood Filler is a simple and lasting solution.

this is how you recognise wood rot

1. Weak spots: gently press into the wood with an awl or screwdriver (use the blunt side if necessary). Is the wood soft? Then this usually indicates wood rot.

2. Loosening of paint: if the paint layer is coming off, this can be an indication of wood rot. So check the paint layer carefully for any cracks, air bubbles or flaking off.

3. Discolouration of the wood: if the wood discolours into a brown or black colour, this often indicates wood rot. Unfortunately, discolouration can only be seen on unpainted wood.
