Wood Repair Before Painting in Squamish

Most exterior paint failures start with the wood underneath. Soft fascia, split trim and rotted sills cannot hold a coating, no matter how good the paint is. Colour Craft Painting repairs small areas of damaged wood as part of your painting project. We cut out what has failed, fit new pieces, fill and seal the rest, then prime and paint so the finish has a sound surface to bond to. When the damage is structural or too extensive for a painting crew, we tell you at the estimate and recommend a licensed carpenter.

Colour Craft Painting serves homeowners across Sea-to-Sky & North Shore, including Squamish and surrounding communities. Our team arrives on schedule, keeps work areas organized, and keeps you informed from the estimate to the final walkthrough.

Wood Repair FAQ: Squamish

Do you do wood repair on its own, without painting?+
Our wood repair is done as part of a painting project, so the repaired wood is sealed, primed and painted right away. If you only need carpentry, a carpenter is the better call.
Why fix rotted wood before painting?+
Paint over soft or rotted wood fails quickly. It traps moisture, peels, and lets the rot keep spreading underneath. Replacing the damaged wood first is what lets a new paint job last.
How do you know how much wood needs replacing?+
We check trim, fascia, sills and siding at the estimate and probe anything that looks soft. Some damage only shows once the old paint is scraped off. If we find more than expected, we show you and agree on it before doing any extra work.
How much does wood repair cost?+
It depends on how much wood is damaged and where it is. We price repairs as part of your free on-site estimate, so you know the cost before any work begins.
What wood repair is too big for you?+
Anything structural: framing, sheathing, posts, beams, deck joists, or large sections of siding. We flag it at the estimate and recommend a licensed carpenter before we paint.
