Repair Care is durable and sustainable and remains permanently flexible throughout its life. It expands and contracts with the timber whilst staying permanently bonded and will far outlast any other repair method.
“The first time l watched the repair care system being used, l could see the enormous potential, to finally have a repair that is far superior, more permanent than anything l had previously used. There is a degree of training required to successfully use repair care but when used correctly it will not slump, sag and stays permanently flexible, for us to be more professional we need to offer a repair or a long term maintenance option that will outlast all other repairs, l use Repair Care with confidence, that if we inspected the repair years later it would still be in excellent condition.”
The importance of pre paint repairs is often under-estimated in maintenance cycles but actually can be the most important part and by using the Rot Doctor will extend your maintenance cycles saving you thousands of dollars over time.
All our work is covered by a 10 year warranty which will guarantee the rot will not return and the product will not crack or split in any way allowing moisture back in.
“A friend told me to call the Rot Doctor so I did and they came the next week and replaced all the rot with new timber. The damp smell disappeared instantly and for about a quarter of the price for a new window.”
