Dry rot and Wet Rot treatment

Dry Rot or Wet Rot can best be described as fungal decay to building timbers and is by far the most common, and the most serious cause of damage to building timbers.  Contrary to popular belief, Dry Rot and Wet Rot are not limited to old buildings; they can affect all timber, both new and old. Dampness, along with a lack of ventilation, provides the perfect conditions for fungal attack on timber to take place. The fungus, once established, breaks down the cell structure of the affected timbers causing potentially widespread and extensive damage if left untreated.
