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
Professional Tacoma Dry Rot Repair
SFW Construction provides experienced and highly reputable Tacoma dry rot repair services that remove all dry rot, along with the wood fungus which causes it, from your home. Wood rot is not an easy fix—to eliminate it entirely from your Tacoma home requires eradicating all of the fungi that cause it, right down to the microscopic spores from which the fungus is spawned. The fungus that causes dry rot feeds on sources of moist or damp wood, so this situation should also be resolved to avoid the problem of dry rot reoccurring in your home.
After the fungus and the wood damaged by dry rot are removed, your home may necessitate repairs, including carpentry, structural restoration, siding repair, and roofing work. As an established general contractor, SFW Construction conducts these kinds of home construction work (and more) on a regular basis. All this is to say, we can perform any home repair you may need to address dry rot damage—which saves you the time, money, and hassle of looking for an outside company.
Addressing Dry Rot Is A Critical Task
Dry rot is a progressive condition that inflicts an increasing amount of decay and dilapidation upon the wood structures and surfaces of your Tacoma the longer it is left untreated. Treating dry rot sooner rather than later will also save you on the cost of dry rot repair work. If you think your home might have wood rot, why not safeguard its integrity and the well-being of your family by having your home inspected for dry rot today?
