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
Why Dry Rot Can Be So Damaging To Your Home
Wood rot represents a significant threat to the structural integrity of your Redmond home because it is caused by a wood fungus that decays healthy wood through devouring the properties that make wood firm and durable. While there are various stages of dry rot, the final stage is one in which previously healthy wood has been dilapidated completely—so much so that it becomes cracked and crumbles easily when any weight or pressure is applied to it.
When dry rot has taken hold of the wood structures and surfaces in your home it seriously compromises the capacity for the wood to perform its intended function. Wood in such a condition of decay is not fit to fortify your home and must be repaired. Because dry rot is progressive, the longer it inhabits your home the worse the decay will get. To remove dry rot completely and ensure it does not reoccur, all of the microscopic spores from which it grows must be removed.
Expert Dry Rot Repair Service In Redmond, Washington
For all of the above reasons, it’s best to have a professional Redmond dry rot removal and repair company inspect and treat your home for wood rot. The damage dry rot can inflict upon your home can be substantial and may require structural restoration work. Dry rot often decays the inner walls, cupboards, floorboards, siding, and roof of homes. As a full-scale general contractor providing comprehensive home repair and restoration work, SFW Construction can perform any and all kinds of home repair.
While we will do everything we can to preserve the integrity of your existing wood structures and surfaces, sometimes siding repair, roofing, carpentry, and other kinds of structural restoration work are necessary to fix the damage caused by dry rot. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!
