Remove wood rot and rebuild what it damaged
Wood rot spreads as long as moisture is present, so a surface patch over rotted framing is only a temporary fix. Proper repair removes all compromised wood back to sound material, rebuilds the affected structural member, and addresses the moisture source that caused the rot in the first place.
Common problems we solve
- Soft, spongy, or crumbling wood in framing or subfloor
- Visible fungal growth or a musty smell near affected wood
- Rot concentrated near sill plates, rim joists, or crawl space framing
- Rot that keeps returning after a previous surface repair
Benefits of a properly designed solution
Full removal, not surface patching
All compromised wood is removed back to sound material before rebuilding.
Rebuilds structural integrity
Affected sill plates, joists, or framing are properly rebuilt to restore load capacity.
Addresses the moisture cause
Since rot always has a moisture source, we identify and flag it so the repair actually holds.
Prevents further spread
Removing rot promptly limits damage to adjacent, still-sound framing.
Our four-step process
- Inspect: Document moisture, drainage, structure, and site conditions.
- Explain: Review findings with photos and straightforward priorities.
- Install: Complete the agreed scope with careful home protection.
- Verify: Test components, clean the work area, and complete a walkthrough.
