Bay Window Wood Repair and Painting
Richmond Hill
Project Overview
Yan, a homeowner in Richmond Hill, contacted Home Painters Toronto for a time-sensitive window wood repair project. The front of her house, particularly the two bay windows, had visible wood damage that required urgent attention. She wanted a long-lasting, high-quality solution that matched the rest of the home’s appearance. With the short window for summer painting, she needed a team that could deliver fast, clean, and professional results.
Bay Window Wood Repair and Painting
The Challenge
The biggest concern was the severe wood rot in the two front bay windows. The original plan was to replace 3–4 boards, but upon closer inspection, the damage ran deeper. Both window woods needed full carpentry work: all siding, panelling, and trim had to be replaced.
Timing was also tight, with a narrow window between the requested start and must-complete dates. We had to protect the surrounding landscaping, ensure clean prep, and avoid using sprayers near garden areas.
The Result
Home Painters Toronto completed the window wood repair job in under two man-days. The team removed all rotten materials and rebuilt the window frames using knotty pine and plywood. Every surface was properly prepped: scraped, sanded, caulked, and primed before applying two coats of high-grade exterior white paint.
Yan was thrilled not only with the refreshed look of her front windows but also with the team’s ability to handle exterior carpentry and painting all in one go. She appreciated the quick turnaround and the crew’s professionalism.
