I made the initial inquiry via the website and was then scheduled for a phone consultation for addition information. After that I decided to go ahead with the project and am totally pleased with the result and the quality of work. The replacement fascia looks great and is better quality than the original plus it is securely fastened in place so I know it won’t be blowing away in the even of another storm.”∼ Teri H.

Common Signs Of Dry Rot
Dry rot, also known as wood rot, can seriously damage your home’s structure. It weakens wood and causes costly repairs.
You may notice discoloration on wood surfaces or smell a damp, musty odor. Additionally, floors that feel soft or “give” under pressure often signal hidden decay.
These warning signs mean dry rot fungus may already be spreading. Therefore, contacting a professional for inspection and repair protects your Portland home from further damage.
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
The Problem Of Dry Rot
Dry rot is very problematic as it is caused by a wood fungus that feeds on wet or moist wood, decaying the wood to the point that it cracks, crumbles and falls apart. Wood rot in such a state of dilapidation is not effective for making a stable or secure structure for your Issaquah home. Even worse, the wood fungus that causes wood rot will spread throughout the healthy wood in your Issaquah home until it is eradicated.
Professional Dry Rot Removal
Professional dry rot removal requires expertise in knowing how to extract all of the wood fungi that causes dry rot – right down to the microscopic spores from which it comes. If all of the wood fungi is not removed, it will likely continue to eat away at your healthy wood and cause dry rot to occur in previously unaffected wood.
