Often window sill rot is only present at the outside edge of the sill, so we can cut and replace the nosing (as it is called.) The effort requires a clean, straight and flat cut to remove the nosing. That will allow us to fabricate and attach a new nosing with no gaps at the glue joint.

  • Sometimes the rot doesn’t go back too far, so we can replace only the nosing.
  • We attached a cutting guide to get a straight, clean cut.
  • Ready for a new nosing.
  • New stock is cut to the same dimensions as the old nosing.
  • The new nosing installed. The casings will have to be replaced.
