Effects of timber damage
Wet Rot and Dry Rot can compromise the strength of your timber, affecting floorboards, beams, and other structural elements. Left untreated, these issues can lead to expensive repairs and safety risks. Woodworm can eat away at timber over time, causing hidden damage that weakens your property’s framework.
By addressing timber damage early, you can avoid larger, more costly repairs in the future. If you notice any signs of timber decay or insect infestation, it’s crucial to contact a professional to assess the situation.
