The Surbiton Experts in Tackling Wet Rot

Wet rot, although generally easier to treat than dry rot, should never be underestimated. It occurs more frequently and can still cause significant, lasting damage to your home if left untreated. Wet rot thrives in damp conditions, attacking timber and potentially leading to serious structural defects within your property.

If you suspect wet rot in your home, it's crucial to act quickly. Based in Surbiton, Surrey, CPM Waterproofing Services Ltd is your trusted local expert for treating wet rot and safeguarding your property from further damage.

Identifying 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 check if painted wood is rotten, try gently poking it with a screwdriver. If the screwdriver sinks in easily, the wood is likely rotten.
  • In more severe cases, pressing the wood with your finger may cause water to rise to the surface, indicating significant decay.

Regularly inspecting painted wood can help you catch rot early and prevent further damage to your property.

If you have any of these symptoms,call our helpful team here at CPM Waterproofing Services Limited soon as possible to arrange a survey of your property. We will identify if, and subsequently which, wet rot treatments are needed.
