        "text": "The decision to repair or replace rotten exterior door trim depends on the extent of the damage. If only a small section is affected, a repair using epoxy wood filler or a wood patch might be sufficient and more cost-effective. However, if the rot is extensive, compromising the structural integrity of the trim or extending into the door frame, full replacement is usually the better long-term solution. A professional assessment from Maine Results, Inc. can determine the best course of action by evaluating the depth of the rot and whether it poses a risk to the door's weather seal or insulation.",
