Timber decay and wet rot are often linked to ongoing moisture problems within a property. When wood remains damp for extended periods, it loses strength, leading to structural weakness, musty odours, and visible deterioration.
Wet rot typically affects roof timbers, floor joists, and concealed structural elements where ventilation is poor or leaks are present. Addressing the timber alone is not enough; the underlying moisture source must be identified and resolved.
At Advanced Damp Ltd, we assess affected timber alongside moisture levels, ventilation, and water ingress points. This ensures any remediation is based on the true cause of decay, not just the symptoms.
