Dry
and Wet Rot Treatments.
Dry
Rot:
The
true dry rot fungus is the more serious which
required immediate attention to avoid extensive
damage. It is malignant and will spread even through
thick walls in search of timber to attack. Affected
timber is brown, dry and brittle with cuboidal
fractures
Wet
Rot:
Sometimes
called cellar fungus, wet rot is a common cause
of structural defects. It required a moisture
content of 40 - 50% but it does not spread through
masonry and its growth is eliminated when moisture
is removed
Treatment:
Firstly
we locate and remove the underlying source of
moisture. Afterwards we apply special low odour
reservation fluids, generally micro emulsions.
Where necessary infected masonry is drilled, irrigated
and surface sprayed.
Woodworm
Treatment Services us a specially formulated preservative
to carry out the fungicidal process and skilled
joiners to carry out and replacement of defective
timbers.
