More Information

There are many reasons you might find dry rot in your home, such as dampness, leaking water, poor ventilation and a lack of proper home maintenance. The term ‘dry rot’ is commonly used to describe a fungal attack to timbers in buildings, and these attacks can cause huge amounts of damage. However, the name ‘dry rot’ can be rather misleading and inappropriate since like all wood destroying fungi it requires water for germination, growth and survival. Its important to note that dry rot usually has a cause, such as a broken gutter or leaking pipe or even such as a leak behind the shower, so as well as solving your rot problem at Peter Moody Building Contracts we will also seek to find the original cause of the rot, providing our clients with a long term solution they can be happy and confident with.   Find out more about us
