Common Signs Of Dry Rot
Dry rot, also known as wood rot, is a serious problem that can threaten the structural integrity of your home by eating away and deteriorating the wood. While discovering dry rot you may also notice the discoloration of wood surfaces, a dank mildew smell, or areas in your floor that “give” when you walk upon it are all common indications of dry rot in your home.
Dry rot occurs in areas that are subject to excessive moisture including, but not limited to:
- Areas of your kitchen and bathroom
- Deck floorboards, ledger, and posts
- Floor covering, subfloor, and joists
- Framing around windows and doors
- Inside posts, beams, joists, and sills
- Roof shingles, gutters, soffit, and fascia
- Walls, baseboards, stiles, and rails
Critical Nature Of Dry Rot Repair
Wood rot is a progressive condition that spreads throughout any moist or wet wood in your Gig Harbor home, inflicting increasing damage upon your home’s wood structures as it advances. So it’s best to catch it early so damages and cost of repairs are minimized. Once detected, the wood fungus that causes dry rot must be removed entirely, down to each and every microscopic spore, in order to completely eradicate the cause of dry rot in your home.
