Replacing Woodrot Damaged Timber
We find structural timbers that have decayed overtime from fungal decay, woodrot, overloading stress and timber pest damage.
The Cause of Woodrot and Fungal Decay
Fungal decay is caused by moisture often caused by lack of maintenance from leaking gutters, water intrusion through cladding, non durable timbers exposed to the weather and in contact with the ground.
We investigate the cause of the structural timber damage
Investigating the cause of the damage is extremely important: Is the structurally damaged timber overloaded and what from? If moisture intrusion has occurred and their is fungal decay/woodrot damage the cause of the moisture needs to be rectified or fixed. This maybe the cause of repairing leaking plumbing, drainage, cladding or roofing which may be found as the cause of the fungal decay/woodrot upon inspection.
