Dry Rot & Structural Repair in the Sacramento Area

Questions
Dry Rot & Structural Repair questions
How do I know if I have dry rot?
Soft, crumbly or discoloured wood around windows, doors, fascia and eaves is the usual sign. We check the suspect areas at the free consultation and tell you honestly how far it goes.
Will the repair be visible afterwards?
The goal is that it is not. New siding, trim and windows are matched to the house, and the paint is matched too. Homeowners tell us they expected to repaint afterwards and did not have to.
Can dry rot spread if I wait?
Yes. Dry rot keeps spreading while moisture gets in, so a small repair now is usually a much smaller job than the same repair next year. The consultation also looks at where the water is coming from.
Do you repair rafters and beams?
Yes. Rafter, beam and framing repairs are part of the work, with engineering where the structure needs it.
What happens at the first consultation?
We come out, inspect the damage with you and explain the repair. It is free, takes about 30 minutes, and a written estimate usually follows the next day.
