Timber Treatment

Insect Infestation

Insect InfestationThis is caused by insects laying their eggs in timber. The larva, when hatching, then use it as a source of food. This eventually weakens the timber until it needs replacing. If caught early enough, the timbers can be sprayed with an insecticide solution, which kills any larvae and prevents further infestation. More severe cases may require the replacement of weakened areas.

Dry Rot

Dry RotDry rot is a virulent and invasive fungal growth. Despite its name, it is a product of a damp environment and can spread through the house in the walls and behind plaster. All timbers will have to be removed a minimum of one metre beyond the trace of the growth and all plasterwork removed until no further traces are found. The area affected is then sterilised with a specialist fluid injected into the brickwork. As always, prevention is better than cure, and spraying with a specialist fungicide and/or installation of new sub-floor airbricks, will greatly reduce the risk of attack in the first instance.

Wet Rot

Wet RotThis is a product of a damp environment, which leaves the wood looking damp stringy and spongy. Consequently the timbers are structurally weak and can fail. It can be remedied by cutting out the affected timber, replacing/improving sub-floor ventilation and spraying with an all-purpose fungicide. Again, prevention is better than cure.
