The Only Company You Need in Putney to Address Wet Rot

In comparison to dry rot, wet rot is usually easier to treat. However, it should not be underestimated, as it occurs more often than dry rot and can still lead to lasting damage occurring in your home. When presented with damp conditions, wet rot thrives, attacking timber at will. Without an effective treatment, is can easily lead to serious structural damage. The team at CPM Waterproofing Services Ltd treat wet rot at properties throughout Putney, and will be happy to help resolve your problem.

The Signs of Wet Rot

  • Wet, Rotten Wood Has a Soft and Spongy Feel
  • Often Looks Darker Than the Healthy Wood Surrounding It
  • Rotten Wood That Has Dried Often Has Longitudinal Cracks and Easily Crumbles into Fine Dust
  • To Test Painted Wood, Try Poking It with a Screwdriver; If It Sinks in Easily the Wood Is Rotten
  • In Severe Cases, by Pressing the Wood with Your Finger, Water May Rise to the Surface of the Wood
