Causes and Effects of Rotten Wood

Wood rot develops when excess moisture allows mold, mildew, and wood-decaying fungi to thrive. Termite infestations can also contribute to wood decay. Common sources of moisture include leaks, poor drainage, inadequate ventilation, and high humidity in crawlspaces. Addressing wood rot promptly is crucial to maintain your home’s safety and structural integrity. If left untreated, rotted wood can:

• Weaken your home’s structural framework
• Cause sagging or uneven floors, soft spots, and a compromised foundation
• Lead to misaligned or sticking doors and windows due to shifting structures
• Attract pests such as termites and carpenter ants
• Result in increasingly costly repairs as damage spreads over time
• Pose serious safety risks to your family
