Identify and Stop Timber Decay Early
Signs of timber rot can include a musty smell, cracking or shrinking wood, and a spongy or weakened feel. If you’ve noticed any of these issues, a professional assessment is essential. Our expert surveyors carry out detailed inspections to confirm whether you’re dealing with dry rot, wet rot, or another timber issue, ensuring the right solution from the outset.
Effective dry rot control requires more than just treatment. We address the underlying moisture problem, improve ventilation where needed, and ensure all affected areas are properly managed. This comprehensive approach ensures your property is protected against future outbreaks, giving you confidence in the long-term condition of your home.
Professional Dry Rot Treatment in Perth
Dry rot spreads quickly through damp timber and even over masonry, making early intervention essential. It feeds on the moisture in timber, leaving it dry, brittle and dangerously unstable, especially when it affects stairs, joists, and floorboards.
Our dry rot treatment in Perth focuses on eliminating fungal growth, treating the affected area, removing damaged timber, executing structural repairs where necessary, and preventing recurrence. We use proven methods and industry-approved treatments to ensure the problem is fully resolved, not just covered up.
Wet Rot Treatment and Timber Repairs
Wet rot develops in persistently damp conditions, for example, when it’s underneath a leak or broken gutter. and can weaken structural timber over time. Once the source of moisture has been resolved, wet rot usually clears up by itself, so accurately identifying the cause and resolving it is the only way to solve the problem reliably.
As experienced specialists in wet rot treatment in Perth, we identify damp problems and carry out precise repairs to affected areas. By combining moisture control with targeted timber treatment, we restore durability and prevent further decay.
Whilst we often have same-week availability in Perth, it can be dependent on demand. Call 01738 893 120 to speak to us and find the earliest survey appointment that works for you.

Dry rot spreads beyond the original source of moisture and can travel through masonry, causing widespread damage. Wet rot stays localised to damp timber and typically causes slower decay.
