Is Your Home at Risk of Wood Rot? Here’s What to Look For 🔍

Wood rot is one of the most common — and costly — issues we find during building inspections across Sydney. It often goes unnoticed until it’s too late.

👀 Signs of wood rot include:
✅ Flaking or spongy timber
✅ Dark staining or fungal growth
✅ Soft spots around window sills, door frames & decking
✅ Paint bubbling or peeling over timber
✅ Musty odours near skirtings or subfloors

🚨 Left untreated, rot can compromise structural integrity, attract termites, and cost thousands to repair.

💡 Many homeowners don’t realise the problem until they’re selling — or worse, after buying!

At Building Inspection Services Sydney, we use advanced tools like moisture meters and thermal imaging to detect hidden issues before they become major defects.
