In case you don’t know, wood rot is a fungus that feeds on damp timbers. For homeowners in Haigh, wood rot problems can result from leaks, humidity and condensation in the home. Once the wood softens from water seepage, the fungus feeds on cellulose within the wood and results in decay and structural damage. It spreads quickly and left untreated will turn into an expensive home repair. If left too long the only way to get rid of it is replacing the structural timbers. Our company is a leader in the field and also building contractors equipped to handle repair and/or replacement of structural timbers. However, it doesn’t have to get to that point if caught early enough. Our proven methods can eliminate the fungus before it causes serious damage that results in expensive repairs.
