What Siding & Dry Rot Repair involves in Milwaukie, OR
Older Milwaukie houses wear cedar bevel and old-growth trim that outlasted several paint jobs, and the rot hides under the last coat — at sills, corner boards, and the bottom courses near grade. We cut back to sound wood and match the original profile instead of patching over it. Every board goes back up flashed, caulked, and primed the same day. Between Ardenwald and Island Station, Milwaukie's stock runs full of pre-war bungalows and mid-century houses, many still on their original wall surfaces — and the job follows the house.
