Rotten Wood

North Carolina’s climate is not helping the wood around your windows and door frames, or any other place on the building where it’s exposed to the elements.  But when damp wood is allowed to sit, the wood is susceptible to the fungus that causes dry rot.   Many property owners think rot is a only a problem in older buildings but that’s not the case.   If water makes it’s way underneath improperly installed siding, you’re looking at a very serious and expensive problem.
