Dry Rot – Termite Damage
San Diego County provides a thriving environment for wood destroying organisms (termites and fungus). The effects can range from cosmetic to extensive structural damage. Our long history of handling damaged wood has provided us with the experience to know when to repair and when to replace. There are many steps involved in working with termite damaged and dry rot damaged wood and our staff is well trained in all aspects of the process.
Woodmark Construction works with board members, property managers and homeowners to educate them in the benefits of preventative maintenance and regular inspections of their properties.
