Hello
Water got in and the trim broard under the window and the large board across the bottom and decorative support bracket was pink rot! Might be a good idea to fix it before fall and winter?? See pics 1-3
Then I noticed the 4 ft vinyl trim piece between the 2 middle windows was missing where the water most likely got in! They are a press fit and this middle one must have blown down in a storm![shock !!! !!!](/talk/styles/default/xenforo/smileys/shock.gif)
So $102 for the nice PVC Veranda HP (High Performance) composite wood and some 2x4x8 PT from Home Depot and with the product ID code in the top window jam, I did a special order from Anderson for the vinyl trim piece! See pics 4-6
After tearing it apart we found the trim boards and bottom board apart we found the trim boards were not really fastened securely so we added some pressure treated wood for a good strong nailing base. See pic 7
Then added the PVC Boards See pic 8
Then the job is not done until the new trim piece is installed and all nail holes are filled and caulking and touch up painting is done! See Pic 9-12
Finally All Done
See pics 13-14
Note: Pics 15-16 shows the product ID and the phone # inside top window jam for ordering parts. The type of window glass is etched on each pane in the lower right corner for ordering new glass.
