  • Attentions now turn to the porch. The worst parts are the bases of the two uprights, which the previous owner ignored by sticking some mitred skirting around them. The porch as a whole feels solid, there's no movement, so I'm sure there's a core of decent wood in there. Question is what to do? Remove loose bits, wood hardener then build out with filler, sand and paint?

  • I'd be inclined to chisel out the rotten bits, and replace them with some fresh wood, with epoxy filler to tidy things up. Of course what I'd actually do involves structural Polyfilla and a thick layer of paint. Or ignoring it.
