Oops

We have some guests coming this week, and before they arrive Brian wanted to fill a small hole in the door frame which he’d accidentally made whilst working on the doors. Unfortunately though, as he started to clean it up to smooth on the filler, he realised all was not as it seemed!

When I came down to see how he was progressing, and find out when it would be ready to paint, the hole was looking pretty serious. Just when we thought the doors were close to being finished the job goes terribly bad.

After some careful consideration we decided what we needed to do for now, was to cut it back to good wood, tidy it up, get some dry rot treatment on it, then board it up until we have time to do a proper job with it.

For now it has a bit of painted hardboard covering the hole. It’ll be fine until we get a gap between guests to fix it properly.

Hey-ho! At least it’s hidden for now, and there’s no hole to be seen…
