Identifying and Treating Timber Decay
Recognizing the Signs of Timber Decay
Signs of timber decay include soft and crumbly wood, visible fungal growth, a dry or damp, musty smell, and discolouration of the wood. If left untreated, these signs may worsen, causing structural damage.
Treating Timber Damp
Treating timber decay involves diagnosing the type of decay, removing the source of dampness, and treating affected areas. This may involve removing decayed timber, treating remaining and new timber with preservatives, and ensuring adequate ventilation to prevent future issues.
Post-Treatment Actions and Prevention
Once the damp source is isolated, damaged woodwork should be replaced with treated timber. Proper ventilation is crucial to prevent dampness and timber decay. Prevention focuses on effective damp control, use of treated timber, and regular property inspections.
The Importance of Early Detection
Early detection of timber decay simplifies treatment and minimises cost. Regular checks can help prevent the spread of decay. If timber decay is suspected, contact a professional surveyor or a timber treatment specialist for an effective analysis and treatment plan.

How long does timber treatment last?
The longevity of timber treatment depends on several factors, including the severity of the decay, the type of treatment applied, and the property’s conditions. However, a professional timber treatment can generally last for many years.

While some chemicals used in timber treatments can be detrimental if directly handled or ingested, our professionals ensure to apply the treatments safely. Occupants, including pets, should vacate the areas during treatment as a precaution.
