What to Expect: Dry Rot Repair in Cerritos
Here's exactly what happens from your first call through completion.
Inspection and Damage Mapping
We probe, tap, and examine all areas with confirmed or suspected dry rot to determine the full extent of decay, including areas behind visible surfaces. All findings are documented with photographs.
Moisture Source Identification
We identify the origin of the moisture — roof leak, failed flashing, plumbing leak, inadequate ventilation, or grade-level intrusion — before any wood replacement begins.
Wood Removal and Replacement
Decayed wood is removed back to sound material confirmed by probe testing. Replacement framing, sheathing, or finish wood is installed. Structural repairs follow California building code.
Bora-Care Protection and Documentation
Exposed replacement and adjacent wood can be protected with Bora-Care as an optional add-on. All repaired areas are documented in a written report suitable for escrow, insurance, and future reference.
