Understanding Wood Rot
When a crawl space remains damp or poorly ventilated, wood becomes a breeding ground for decay. Excess moisture allows fungi to grow and slowly eat away at the structural components beneath your home. Over time, this leads to soft, spongy wood and sagging floors.
Have you noticed musty smells, uneven flooring, or humidity inside your house? These are often signs of wood rot in your crawl space. Without timely repair, this problem can spread and compromise your home’s structure.
