Today I was assigned to a wood rot repair job on a window trim for a residential home. Upon inspection, I found that the lower sections of the trim were badly deteriorated due to years of water exposure. The rot had spread deeper than expected, making it impossible to simply patch. To solve the issue, I carefully removed all the damaged wood and cut replacement pieces to match the original trim profile. I then treated the surrounding wood with a wood hardener to prevent future decay and installed the new sections using waterproof wood glue and exterior-grade nails. After sealing all joints with caulk, I primed and painted the area to match the rest of the trim. The repair blended in well and restored both the appearance and integrity of the structure.

Today I worked on a garage floor painting project and ran into an issue with the epoxy not adhering properly in certain spots. After inspecting the surface, I realized there were areas with residual oil stains that weren’t fully removed during the initial cleaning. To fix the problem, I stopped the application, thoroughly degreased the floor using a commercial concrete cleaner, and then used a grinder to rough up the surface for better adhesion. Once the floor was fully prepped and dried, I reapplied the epoxy coating, which bonded smoothly. The floor now has a clean, durable finish, and the homeowner was very happy with the result.

Today I completed an interior painting job at a residential home, and during the process, I encountered an issue with uneven wall texture in the living room.

After allowing it to dry, I re-primed the area and used a high-quality roller with the proper nap length to ensure a smooth, consistent finish. The end result was a clean, even coat that met the client’s expectations and greatly improved the overall look of the room.
