Structural & Dry Rot Repair

Is your house giving you attitude?

Rot doesn’t show its full hand right away. Cosmetic repairs may help temporarily, but when the same area keeps acting up, there’s usually more going on beneath the surface.

Dry rot can continue spreading, and wet rot can worsen where moisture remains. Catch the damage early before repairs become more extensive.

What We’ve Found Hiding Inside

Rot often hides behind siding, trim, and other finishes. These examples show what was discovered once the affected areas were opened up.

Common warning signs

While rot doesn't move fast, it spreads exponentially. And the longer moisture is allowed to remain, the more the scope of repairs grows.

In our experiences, the extent of repairs have always been directly related to the age of the moisture problem. 100% of the time. And in cases of long-term exposure, the damage is always more extensive than it first appears.

Some common warning signs are:

  • Areas that feel spongy or unstable
  • Blistering or peeling paint
  • Swelling or sagging in any building materials
  • Warping trim, cabinets, or doors
  • Recurring moisture or water marks

What we do

We make structurally-sound repairs that last by evaluating the affected area, defining the true boundaries of the problem, and restoring integrity where decay or hidden damage has compromised the structure. Common repairs include:

  • Structural rot in framing, beams, posts, or sill plates
  • Dry rot and advanced wood decay
  • Damage around windows, doors, decks, and exterior penetrations
  • Soft floors, sagging areas, or suspicious movement
  • Pre-sale issues for homeowners and real estate transactions
  • Hidden damage extending past the visible surface
  • Repairs that require opening things up
  • Repeated failures after previous surface-level repair attempts

Focused specialty

Rot is not something that catches us by surprise or something that we have to figure out. Rot repair is what we do.

Methodical evaluation

We understand what's beyond surface symptoms to comprehend what’s actually going on.

Structural outcome

Repair or replace as appropriate, based on what the building actually needs.

Note: Opening things up is a standard practice and necessary step when hunting down the frontiers of a rot problem.

How the work typically goes

Addressing rot correctly requires clarity, not guesswork.

  3. 3

    Restore structural integrity
