So you need to repair a rotted window frame? We fix a rotted window from the outside caused by water damage. The wood rot badly affected the bottom outside portion of this stationary window frame and window sill. Removing the window would involve removing all three as they formed a set and this would be a very involved process. So we opted to try to remove the rot while keeping the window in its frame. We did this by working from the outside where the wood rot was most visible.
