Carpentry and Wood Repair in Palmdale & Lancaster, CA
Wood takes a beating in the high desert. Summer heat dries it out and splits it, sprinklers and leaking swamp coolers soak it, and before long the fascia is soft, the trim is peeling and the bottom of a post has turned to mush. Handyman Randy provides carpentry and wood repair for homes, rentals and businesses throughout Palmdale, Lancaster and the greater Antelope Valley. We repair wood rot, fascia boards, exterior trim and framing, and we install baseboards, cabinets and custom shelving. Randy's background is in framing and repair, so we fix the wood behind the problem, not just the piece you can see.
Our Carpentry Services
Most wood damage starts with water, sun or movement, and it keeps spreading until the cause is fixed. A rotted fascia board replaced without stopping the leak above it will rot again. Handyman Randy finds where the damage started, cuts out everything that's soft, and rebuilds with wood that's primed and sealed for the Antelope Valley climate.

Wood Rot Repair
Wood rot spreads quietly. By the time paint bubbles or a board feels soft, the rot is usually deeper than it looks. Handyman Randy provides wood rot repair across Palmdale and Lancaster for homeowners, landlords and businesses, from a single soft spot to full board replacement.
What We Repair
Rotted fascia and eaves: Roof edge boards soaked by leaks, overflowing gutters or swamp cooler runoff.
Rotted trim and sills: Window sills, door trim and corner boards where water sits and soaks in.
Rotted posts: Patio cover and pergola posts rotted at the base where they meet concrete or soil.
Rotted siding: Wood siding and T1-11 panels damaged near the ground, sprinklers or downspouts.
How We Repair It
We probe the damaged area to find where solid wood starts, then cut out every soft section. Small areas of rot are cleaned out, treated and filled with epoxy wood filler that won't shrink or crack. Larger damage is cut out and replaced with new wood, primed on all sides before it goes up so water can't soak into the back or ends.
Materials We Use
Exterior repairs are made with primed or pressure-treated lumber, depending on where the wood sits. Every cut end is sealed, joints are caulked, and we use exterior screws and nails that won't rust and streak your paint.
Wood Rot Repair for Homeowners and Property Managers
We handle single board repairs for homeowners and full exterior wood repair for landlords and property managers. Rotted trim and fascia are often flagged during inspections and turnovers, and we can fix them before they delay a sale or a new lease.
Turnaround
Most wood rot repairs are finished in a single visit. Larger jobs that need paint may need a return trip once the primer and filler have dried.

Fascia Board Repair
Fascia boards run along the edge of your roof and take direct sun all day. In the Antelope Valley they crack, peel and rot faster than any other wood on the house. Handyman Randy repairs and replaces fascia boards across Palmdale, Lancaster and the Antelope Valley.
What We Repair
Peeling and cracked fascia: Sun-damaged boards scraped, filled, primed and painted, or replaced when they're too far gone..
Rotted fascia sections: Soft or crumbling sections cut out and replaced with new boards joined cleanly to the old.
Sagging fascia and gutters: Fascia pulling away from the rafters under the weight of gutters, refastened or rebuilt.
Damaged rafter tails: Rotted rafter ends behind the fascia repaired so the new board has something solid to attach to.
Exterior Trim Repair
Exterior trim seals the edges around your windows, doors and corners. When it cracks or rots, water and wind get into the wall behind it. Handyman Randy repairs exterior trim across Palmdale, Lancaster and the Antelope Valley on stucco, siding and wood homes.
Common Trim Problems We Fix
Split and cracked trim: Boards split by heat and dry air, pulling away from the wall.
Rotted window and door trim: Trim soaked by sprinklers or rain running off the window above.
Loose or missing pieces: Trim blown loose by wind or knocked off, leaving gaps in the wall.
Failed caulk: Dried, cracked caulk that lets water and dust get behind the trim.
The Repair Process
Remove the damage: Split, rotted or loose trim is removed and the wall behind it is checked for moisture damage.
Replace and fasten: New trim is cut to match the original profile, primed on all sides and fastened with exterior fasteners.
Seal and paint: Joints are caulked and the new trim is painted to match the house.
Turnaround Time
Most exterior trim repairs are finished in one visit. Larger jobs that include painting may need a second day.
Baseboard Installation
New baseboards finish a room and cover the gap between the wall and floor. Handyman Randy installs baseboards, door casing, window casing and crown molding in Palmdale and Lancaster homes and rentals.
What We Install
Baseboards: New baseboards after flooring installs, or replacements for damaged, chewed or water-stained boards.
Door and window casing: Trim around interior doors and windows, installed or replaced to match the rest of the house.
Crown molding and trim upgrades: Taller baseboards and crown molding for homeowners updating a room.
How We Make the Install Last
1. Measure and Match
We match the style and height of your existing trim, or help you choose a new profile.
2. Cut Tight Joints
Inside corners are coped and outside corners are mitered so joints stay tight and don't open up.
3. Fasten to Studs
Trim is nailed into studs and bottom plates so it stays flat against the wall.
4. Fill, Caulk and Paint
Nail holes are filled, joints are caulked and the trim is painted for a finished look.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my wood has rot?
Soft spots, bubbling or peeling paint, dark stains and wood that crumbles when pressed are the most common signs. We can probe the area and tell you how far it goes.
Can you repair rotted wood instead of replacing it?
Small areas of rot can be cleaned out and filled with epoxy. Larger or deeper damage needs the board replaced so the problem doesn't come back.
Do you paint after the repair?
Yes. We prime and paint repairs to match the rest of your home, so you don't need a separate painter.
Do you install baseboards after new flooring?
Yes. We install new baseboards or reinstall existing ones after flooring work.
Can you build custom shelves for my garage or closet?
Yes. We build and install shelving sized to your space and what you need to store.
Do you offer a free estimate?
Yes. Every job starts with a free written estimate, and most estimates are provided within 24 hours.
