North Vancouver Rot, Window and Siding Repair

Client's goals
The client needed rot around an existing window addressed with a careful repair to protect the home's structure and stop further damage. While the wall was open, they chose to install a new window and replace the surrounding siding for a clean, long-lasting finish, and they asked Roka to rebuild their stairs for better safety and appearance.

Overview
Roka Projects repaired rot around a window of this North Vancouver home, protecting the structure and stopping the damage from spreading. With the wall already open, a new window went in and the surrounding siding was replaced for a clean, lasting finish, and the exterior stairs were rebuilt for safety. The whole project took two weeks.
Scope of work
Rot around the existing window cut out and repaired
New window installed
Surrounding siding replaced
Exterior stairs rebuilt
Result
The rot is gone instead of hidden, the new window and siding finish the wall properly, and the rebuilt stairs are safe underfoot. A tidy two-week project that dealt with the problem while it was still a small one.
