Restoration Services

Siding is the layer standing between your framing and the weather. It absorbs the sun, deflects the rain, and takes the hail — and because it works from the outside in, problems tend to progress well past the visible stage before anyone acts.

Don Wojan Handyman handles siding repair and exterior improvement work for homeowners across North Dallas and Collin County. This is a veteran-owned business carrying more than twenty-five years of construction and remodeling experience, and we serve those two regions and nothing beyond them — Plano, Allen, McKinney, Wylie, Murphy, Princeton, Prosper, Celina, and the North Dallas neighborhoods included.

Damaged panels, loose sections, deteriorated boards, soft trim, and the fascia and soffit details that tie into the siding system all fall inside what we address.

Water is the most frequent culprit. Failed supply lines, leaking angle stops, dishwasher and washing machine hoses, slow drips under sinks, water heater failures, and the freeze events that arrive in North Texas every few winters all leave the same trail — swollen baseboard, cupped flooring, soft cabinet bases, stained trim, and subfloor that has lost its integrity.

Storm damage brings a different mix. Hail and wind opening up siding and trim, falling limbs breaching exterior walls or decking, wind-driven rain finding its way past compromised flashing, and debris impact on windows, doors, and fencing.

Then there is damage that accumulated rather than happened. Exterior wood left unprotected long enough to rot through, deck framing that gave up, siding sections gone soft at grade, doors and windows deteriorated past the point of adjustment, and interior areas affected by long-term moisture nobody caught.

We also handle damage from ordinary life — impact damage to walls and doors, floors ruined by a pet or an appliance, and the aftermath of a break-in where jambs, doors, and hardware need rebuilding.

Restoration starts with finding the boundary of the damage rather than the boundary of what shows. Water travels along framing and under flooring, so we check adjacent rooms, look inside cabinets, and probe the areas that feel wrong underfoot before quoting anything.

The source has to be resolved first. If a leak is still active or an exterior opening is still admitting water, restoring the finish surfaces just sets up a repeat. Where the cause falls outside our scope, we say so and tell you what needs handling before we begin.

Removal comes next — extracting failed flooring, compromised trim, damaged cabinetry, and affected subfloor or sheathing down to sound material. Guessing on that boundary is how problems come back.

Rebuilding follows in the order the structure requires: framing and subfloor repair, then sheathing and exterior weather barrier where the work is outside, then the finish layers. Flooring, cabinetry, trim, baseboard, casing, doors, windows, siding, decking, and fencing all fall inside what we can put back.



The finish stage decides whether the job looks restored or looks patched. Matching profiles, aligning heights, sequencing transitions, and detailing the joints correctly is where the difference lives, and it is the part you will look at every day afterward.

The most honest read on a contractor comes from homeowners who have already been through a project with one, and the feedback we hear returns to the same practical ground: showing up when the appointment said, keeping the homeowner informed rather than going quiet, explaining what actually happened in plain terms, and leaving the site clean. On restoration work in particular, customers have pointed to Don's years as an insurance adjuster with Allstate and State Farm as genuinely useful when their repair overlapped with a claim, since he understands how carriers look at damage. Several have also mentioned work wrapping up faster than they expected during a stressful stretch. That record keeps growing as we serve more households across North Dallas and Collin County, and we would rather earn it one restored home at a time than manufacture it.

Restoration questions usually come during a bad week, so the answers below are as direct as we can make them. These are what homeowners in Plano, McKinney, and the North Dallas neighborhoods ask most.



Anything not covered here belongs in your request. If part of the work falls outside what we do, we will tell you plainly rather than take it on and figure it out later.

Use the form to describe what happened and what you are seeing. Tell us the cause if you know it, when it occurred, which rooms or exterior areas are affected, and whether the source has been fixed. If the situation is still active, say that clearly at the top.



Photos are especially important on restoration work. Wide shots of each affected area, close-ups of the damage, and pictures inside cabinets or under flooring where you can get them help us scope the work accurately before arriving. We will confirm your address sits within North Dallas or Collin County, review what you have sent, and set a time to assess the damage in person. Estimates are free, and we will be direct about the full extent of what we find rather than quoting only the parts that are easy to see.
