What do dry rot treatment services include?

Dry rot is a severe problem that needs urgent treatment from Taskers booked quick and easy via Airtasker! There is nothing more painful than to see the home you’ve grown up in suffer from wood rot damage. Be it with furniture, timber flooring, or the home’s actual structure, having it treated professionally will work wonders and give them another lease on life. Here is what typically goes on in professional wood rot treatments made by dry rot specialists:

Site assessment and related pre-work

Dry rot wood treatment and wet rot wood treatment fall under similar processes. These sorts of issues are not easy to detect, and having a clearer picture of what’s going on would make the next steps much more pointed. For all you know, it might be a termite issue requiring urgent solutions. From here, a Tasker will recommend certain materials and consumables which would be included in your final bill. Taskers would usually recommend going for an outright replacement then preventive treatment as it would ensure that the problem area would no longer cause any trouble.

Replacement of target areas

The best solution in fixing dry rot wood is not letting affected areas cause more damage across the structure. It is therefore recommended to fully replace the affected area: from timber to brickwork, even steel. While this may take longer than just scraping off the rot and treating it right there and then, that would be no different to a band-aid solution that would still end up getting worse eventually. With an outright replacement, you start with a clean slate and have substantially more time until the next dry or wet rot treatment becomes necessary. No need to worry about, say, immediate rain rot treatments.

Preventive treatment

Once the fresh installation has been made, it’s time to apply the preventive treatment. Fungal rot, be it wet or dry, is primarily caused by moisture which the fungi thrive on. It creates an environment where they can expand, eventually eating up your timber and other structural necessities. With the proper treatment, you can prevent moisture from building up, thereby discouraging fungal growth in your home. You could say this could help maintain a clean home since fungal growth at home may also pose health risks.
