WOOD ROT & WOOD REPAIR
Everybody knows that wood rot is a big problem - if it's not taken care of properly, it can cause structural damage to your home.
Wood rot is caused by the perfect storm: Wood + O2 + Warmth + Moisture
Obviously, if you don't have wood, you won't have rot!
Substrate (wood)
There's nothing we can do about keeping the O2 away.
Oxygen
This depends on the temperature outside most of the time.
Warmth
YES! We do have some control over moist conditions!
Moisture



So? What do I do to avoid wood on my siding, trim, deck, and railings from rotting?
1. Keep it painted
2. Keep away from standing water
3. Keep the air flowing (cut back bushes/ivy)
4. Call Dana - she can take care of it!
I'd be happy to come take a walk around your house to see if there is any wood that is rotted, or is on the verge of rotting.
