The Dutchman patch is cut on a table and miter saw to ensure square corners. We then take measurements and notes to make our solid Dutchman patch on the table saw. The router rode along the sill, sloped 12 to 15 degrees, so we try to match the angle on our patch. We duplicate this slope with the intent of getting all the sides of the new patch to touch all the sides of the hole in the sill. Cut the patch into shape with intersecting rip cuts to create the stepped key effect.
We use West System epoxy, a versatile two-part, marine-grade epoxy that bonds and coats fiberglass, wood, metal, fabrics and other composite materials to provide superior strength and moisture resistance. The epoxy was designed for boatbuilding and repair and works great on windowsills, columns and other areas where gluing, filling and shaping are needed.
We use the epoxy in two ways, as glue and as filler. First we brush on the epoxy to all wood surfaces and then tap in the piece. It swells a bit, and a gentle hammer-tap against a wood block is needed to get the Dutchman in place. Once in position, clamp it or use a few well-placed finish nails hold it until the epoxy dries—usually 8 to 24 hours.
Once the patch is installed, we mix up a batch of epoxy with structural filler to fill and overlap the seams of the patch and any nail holes created during the repair. We wait 24 hours before sanding the patch and applying a quality oil primer to the entire windowsill. The painter will follow us with additional primer and two-coats of paint.
The Oak XTRA is an adjustable premier series spiral staircase that features solid Oak wooden stair treads and landing to complement and add style to any interior living space. Window sills take quite a beating. Constant exposure to the sun, rain and ice can take a toll, especially when water finds its way beneath the layer of paint and caulk.
Ongoing exposure to moisture can cause the sill to rot, a process that only gets worse over time. If left unchecked, the rot will penetrate deeper into the sill, requiring more and more extensive repair, often spreading to adjacent jams and trim-work. The guys were courteous clean and very respectful and did a great job!! I've also used them for a lot of jobs through my business and always got good feedback from customers.
I would definitely recommend them and guarantee you won't be disappointed with their services.

Highly recommend!! Robin Shugan 28 Sep I highly recommend Weaver. I recently had a number of windows replaced. The entire team from the quote to the finished job was excellent. Everyone was very friendly and kind. I'm so happy with the windows. The trim work and re-capping the exterior was excellent. Itlooks amazing! C McNeil 12 Oct From their salesman to installation, Weaver made the whole eavestrough purchasing pain free.
Their pricing was competitive compared to others. We had issues on installation day, due to construction happening around the outside. They were able to adapt their plan on the fly to solve our issue.
We couldn't be happier with the service and product we received. Terry Clark 27 Oct The window installation team were friendly, courteous, open to consultation and shared ideas from their experience. The finished product looks great with no maintenance and a life time warranty. It is also helpful that Weaver offers other exterior services. Weaver removed our old faded siding and replaced it with new vinyl siding. They also replaced damaged and worn eavestroughs, soffit, and fascia.
Andrew and Rob were terrific! The work was carefully completed with much attention to detail. When the old siding came off and problems with the sheathing beneath became evident, they presented us with options that would ensure the job was completed in the best possible way.
Our house now looks fresh and more contemporary. Working with Weaver on this project has been a great experience. Since completing the project, they have been very quick to follow up with some minor adjustments. They truly stand by their work. We had eaves replaced by Weaver and we are very happy with the service and job.
Work was completed in one day even though the day they came to do the job was a little chilly, it didn't seem to phase them. After completion of work they even cleaned up all the ice from old eaves and piled in a corner of our yard. We are very impressed. Kristina de Ruiter 15 Jan Right from our first meeting with Jesse, we were impressed.
Jesse and his team were amazing. We got windows replaced, eavestroughs and siding done. The guys were super friendly, and professional. They went above and beyond. Lauren Turner 23 Jan I had Weaver Exterior replace 3 windows in my house. Every interaction I had with them was very professional and they were able to answer any questions I had.
The windows look great and everything was cleaned up after they finished installing them. Jim Miller 27 Jan John and his assistant worked well together and installed four windows in January with care, diligence and attention to detail. We are pleased with their professional workmanship and would not hesitate to contract or recommend Weaver Exterior Remodeling for future work. Sylvie Hosick 08 Mar We are very pleased with the work and professionalism Weaver Exterior Remodeling provided us with our new windows and siding.
Our initial request was to replace our windows, patio door and front entry door, however, we called them again for an additional quote to also replace our siding. We were given excellent service right from Brianne in sales, to the installation team and customer service. One of the owners, Garth, even came to the house to discuss an issue that I had raised. He took the time to explain it to me and offered me an alternate option. John was exceptional with our windows.
His attention to detail was outstanding and we still can't believe he managed to replace all of our windows by himself, even with the heavy patio door. John must wear an invisible superhero cape! The siding team were also very efficient. Hank, Elliott and Matt worked very well as a team and were thorough in the installation. They also quickly dealt with an area of rot on the house, which had to be repaired.
They were so easy to work with. The project manager, Rob, also made sure to keep us advised on the progress of our project and kept us in the loop when the project had to be slightly delayed due to weather. Overall, I would certainly recommend Weaver Exterior Remodeling for any of your projects!
Not only are the staff amazing but the products are of high quality. Plain and Simple 13 Mar I hired Weaver to perform an upgrade on an exterior door. From the quote to the actually job performed everything was amazing. I am so happy that I chose to go with their service. All staff that I had dealt with were very professional and kept the best interests of the customer in mind. I will definitely be using Weaver Exterior Remodeling again.
Thank you for a great product and terrific service. Kendra Barcelos 18 Mar I had Weaver's replace a custom sized window in my house. The sales person, the person who came to do the measuring and the installers were all fantastic to deal with.
I also spoke to the customer service staff and they were very helpful as well. The installation of the window didn't take very long at all and there was no mess to clean up after they left.
I will say that the window took awhile to arrive but, that was not this company's issue. It was a slowdown at the manufacturers level due to covid restrictions. I would highly recommend using this company based on my experience. Susan V 17 Apr Weaver did a great job replacing a section of my eavestrough after winter ice damage.
They made sure there was a perfect colour match and fair, reasonable pricing. Maggie MacMurchy 29 Apr Weaver provided quality work in and honest and timely fashion.
I highly recommend. WE were always Very pleased with everything! Responded quickly. I was out of their service area but l appreciated them getting back to me quickly to let me know. That tells me they are a reputable and professional business. Rose Guzzo 26 May We used Weaver Exterior to replace our gutters and facia.
They did a fantastic job. Professional, took great care to get the job done right. Hank and Elliott were a pleasure to work with. I would recommend this company to anyone needing work done. Second time using Weaver. Quoted, ordered and installed in a totally acceptable time especially considering the challenges that Covid has presented. Our installer John was fantastic.
Quality installation and kept everything neat and tidy. Love our new windows! Thanks Weaver! Wanda Shedlowich 20 Jun Rick and I are very happy with our new front door. Everyone was very professional from the office staff to book appointment, Dave and Jesse coming to our house to explaining everything and giving us a quote, to the insulation of the door by Vid.
Jesse, one of the owners of the company came with Dave, our sales rep. It was nice to see the training of a new sales rep for the Weaver Team. Thumps up to Vid on a job well done.
He was a good representation for the Weaver Team with his professionalism, knowledge and attention to fine detail. Wanda Shedlowich 21 Jun Everyone was very professional from the office staff to book appointment, Dave and Jesse coming to our house to explaining everything and giving us a quote, to the installation of the door by Vid.
Susanne Robinson 22 Jun We had old siding removed and replaced with new board and batten vinyl siding on the front of our house. They managed to get the job done on time in spite of the pandemic and others telling us that they could not get supplies until the Fall.
The job was well done within a few days and all old materials were removed. The workers were very pleasant to deal with. We noticed a few minor issues the next day and they returned immediately to correct them.
Very pleased with the job. Excellent experience from beginning to completion. Able to get a quote quickly - and the price I was shown was the price I paid. The project was completed earlier than expected. The team was friendly and professional, and committed to high quality workmanship. I am so happy with the results! The new eavestroughs system meets all my expectations and my dealing with Weaver exceeded my expectations!
Would highly recommend. Janne Haapalainen 05 Aug Having the remainder of all our windows done this year by weaver was overall a pleasant experience.
Sales staff that provided the quote were easy to deal with. The window installer was friendly, polite, punctual, and has done quality work. The new windows look great and they were finished on time. We found the pricing to be very reasonable. Last year we had weaver do two sets of windows and our patio door. There have been no issue and they still look great. We would definitely consider hiring them again for other jobs. Will 21 Aug Norm and Charles removed all of my existing soffit fascia and gutters and replaced it with beautiful new aluminum and a leafguard system.
They were on time, friendly and so professional!!! I have never been so impressed with their skill and attention to detail. They cleaned up the site each day perfectly. I will recommend Weaver and especially Norm and Charles wholeheartedly Melanie Sutherland 02 Sep The team at Weaver were an absolute pleasure to work with on our recent cottage restoration.
From our first interaction on the phone, to their sales team to the installation crew, everyone delivered exceptional customer service. Their work was done on time and exceeded our expectations. They went above and beyond to help repair the wear and tear on our year old cottage which now has a breath of new life.
I would highly recommend working with Weaver for your exterior needs. K Curtis 08 Sep I had insulation, new siding, eaves, soffits, etc. Whenever I had questions Hank, the senior guy of the crew, was there to explain to the full extent. When we ran into a little trouble with reattaching my hydro meter, Hank was there to save the day. I have had many compliments on how great my house looks. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Fantastic job everyone.
Joanne Wilcox 20 Sep Weaver Exterior did a great job. Skip to primary navigation Skip to main content Skip to primary sidebar Skip to footer. On closer inspection…Houston, we have a problem Tools You Need To Fix A Rotted Windowsill Fortunately, the tools and techniques needed to fix a rotted windowsill are pretty fundamental.
Measure the length of the apron… The sill… And the width of the apron and any other trim to be replaced. Use a utility knife to score any caulk and paint seams.
Tap your pry bar gently behind the apron. Careful of the siding. This is what happens when water works its magic. Pry out the sill, and remove any stray nails. Get rid of any rotted wood behind the apron and sill. A couple of degree days and a heat gun got the innards dried out. A leftover piece of siding was a perfect replacement. You may have to rip your trim to fit. Using PVC trim means you may never again have to fix a rotted windowsill. Use your old sill to find the angle… Run it through, and instant sill!
Paint everything on every surface. Keep that agua OUT. Work from the inside out. Replace sheathing and siding and caulk it. Next, attach the sill.
Nail into framing members. Attach the apron with 8D galvanized nails. Get a two-part epoxy wood filler and mix up a batch… Then push it in, and shape it to match the trim.
