Demand for our wood decay repair service has been at an all time high since beginning of February this year when we appointed a Wood Rot Doctor for the Waverley, Knox, Whitehorse areas in Melbourne.
We are fully aware of the extent of wood decay in homes across Australia. Conservative estimates put a figure of over 6 million homes being affected.
We have found the problems we have been asked to look at over recent months in Melbourne, to be typical of wood decay across Australia. Window and door frames, weatherboards, pergolas, decks and balconies. Causes of decay are consistent in most situations, lack of maintenance, wrong selection of wood species in the original construction, and exposure to excessive moisture conditions. These all contribute to the cause of wood decay.
Wood decay is like all illnesses, quick identification of a problem and early treatment by one of our Wood Rot Doctors normally will result in low cost restoration to a sound and healthy building.
In a period of only a few months, we have attended to over 50 properties in our latest area of activity in Melbourne. |
