What is Wood Rot?

Wood rot is a form of decay that occurs when wood absorbs moisture, making it susceptible to fungal growth. Over time, this weakens the wood's structure, impacting your home’s safety and efficiency. Fixing wood rot early can prevent larger problems and save on costly repairs

Windows and Door Frames

Frames around windows and doors are common areas for wood rot. Water often seeps in unnoticed, damaging the frame and letting in drafts. Repairing these areas early keeps warmth inside and prevents further decay from spreading.

Deck and Exterior Wall Junctions

Decks that meet an exterior wall without proper flashing can trap water, leading to rot at the junction. Addressing rot here can protect both your deck and home’s structure, extending the life of your exterior areas.

Garage Door Frames and Trim

Garage door frames and trim face constant exposure to the elements, making them prime spots for wood rot. Repairing rot here prevents water and pests from getting into your garage and reduces maintenance needs.

Wood Siding and Trim

Wood siding can rot in various ways depending on its type and exposure. Fixing rotted siding helps keep moisture from seeping into your walls, maintaining your home’s structural integrity and energy efficiency.

Signs of Wood Rot to Look Out For

Soft or spongy wood, peeling paint, visible mold, or damp smells are common signs of wood rot. Checking these areas regularly helps you spot potential issues before they worsen, especially in high-risk spots like frames and trim.
