“I contacted SFW construction about doing a partial fascia cover replacement on my roof. The entire experience was flawless from start to finish. 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 In Your Home
The paradox of dry rot is that it is caused by a wood fungus that thrives in moist and damp wood. The final stage of dry rot is indeed a state in which previously healthy wood has had its rigor and strength removed. At this point, wood with dry rot has become dried out and tends to crack, crumble, and break apart – thus it becomes ineffective to provide a stable structure for your home.
The wood fungus that produces dry rot is intrusive and spreads rampantly throughout all sources of moist wood. If it is not treated by a professional Woodinville dry rot repair specialist, the problem will continue – which only does more damage to your home. That’s why having your home inspected for dry rot and having the dry rot removed entirely is so important. As dry rot progresses to advanced stages the damage it does increases, along with the cost to repair it.
