Hello Dee, You will most likely need a joiner, the chances of getting a carpenter to make items of the rot will take longer and be more costly in the long run. Regards Michael
What kind of workman required?
Posted by Dee Carrodus, on
Part of porch wood is rotten & needs replacing. Some more needs refurbing & mastic re-applying. I've had different opinions re whom to ask so would appreciate suggestion re what kind of workman I need please.

We can carry out this kind of work. sounds straight forward and relatively inexpensive
Jason Stockhill
A good painting company, with knowledge of what the wood will do, making sure all the end grains have been treated and any high risk areas of moisture are dealt with correctly. Most joiners have no idea of manufacturing specifications for finishing it off. If it gets replaced its paramount it is done correctly Ask yourself why it is rotten in the first place before employing a trade.

Hi there A competent handyman would be able to replace rotten timbers with new and seal. If the porch is in need of replacement then a general builder/ carpenter would be the right way to go.

Hi, I assume the porch has an external roof, if so, I would suggest getting a roofer to look at it. Hope this helps

hi rotten wood will need replacing so a carpenter/joiner will be your best call and ensure new wood is treated to protect from elements.
Thomas Lyon
You need a general builder or a carpenter/decorator depending how much carpentry is involved
gregory mckenzie
hi dee you would need a joiner
Michal Banas
Good decorator should be able to do that for you - usually it's part of preparation before painting (removing / replacing or repairing damaged or rotten wood). If it is bare wood and you don't want to have it painted (but i assume you will have to, at least to protect it) - get handyman or carpenter. Hope this helps.
