THE CHALLENGE

Why Replacement Wasn't the Best Solution

Puamana Homeowners Association in Princeville, Kauai faced widespread insect and rot damage throughout a 97-unit vacation rental community. Replacement estimates reached approximately $1.4 million, creating a major financial challenge for the association.

WRP provided on-site consultation, hands-on training, and professional repair materials. The community's maintenance technicians then completed the restoration work using the repair methods they were trained to perform.
