Wood Rot & Moisture Repair in Reading & Berks County

Why moisture and termites go together

Subterranean termites need moisture to survive, which is why damage so often shows up where wood stays damp, near grade, under leaking plumbing, in poorly ventilated crawl spaces, and behind failing flashing. Rot and termite damage frequently sit side by side. If you repair the wood but leave the water, you've just rebuilt the buffet. We treat both as one job: restore the damaged wood and correct the conditions that caused it.

What we address

• Rotted sills, joists, and framing near the foundation
• Crawl space moisture, drainage, and ventilation
• Grading and downspouts that drive water toward the structure
• Plumbing and roof leaks that have been feeding the damage
• Vapor barriers and clearances that keep wood dry going forward

Our approach

We rebuild the damaged structural wood and fix the source of the moisture in the same scope, so the repair lasts. Free assessment, fixed written price, workmanship warranty.
