I have full wood frame windows - newer double pane kind - and unfortunately the former owner doesn't seem to have taken maintenance seriously: I have a few rotting sills. This sill has two components - the main plate and the molded front piece are separate pieces. In some cases the rot has gone into the main plate and under the jambs, which is where I'm wondering what options I have for fixing. Any suggestions?
