Wood Damage and Repairs
Patios, trellises, sheds, and attached wooden structures.
Termites along with other wood destroying organisms, such as wet or dry rot cause extensive damage to structures all year long.
The leading ways to prevent termites and wood rot from destroying your home is with annual termite inspections of your property. Finding out if a local Pest Company, like Black Knight Termite and Pest Control located in Riverside County, provides a Termite Service Contract is highly recommended especially if you live in an area where termites are common. People tend to dismiss visible damage caused by wood destroying organisms until it’s too late. It’s possibly the dread of the added cost for treatment that deter home and business owners from addressing the problem. Even though avoiding an infestation will only lead to more high dollar repairs, and that is just the beginning. A termite infestation can easily spread to other structures around the property. Being proactive with regular inspections is guaranteed to help avoid long term wood and structure damage caused by termites and wood rot.
Patio And Trellis Overhangs With Wood Damage
During a Wood Destroying Organisms Report required for a real estate transaction, any structure that is attached to a home is required to be apart of the report, and should be free and clear of damage. When building your home, or adding onto, this is important to consider if in the future you decide to sell. The same goes for attached garages, sheds or storage units, and being a part of the inspection. Keeping additional structures like these separate could be beneficial later down the line.

If a patio has extensive wood damage most of the time termite treatment is not enough. There are situations in which the integrity of the wood is too far gone, and needs to be replaced entirely. If moisture has seeped into the wood for a long period of time the wood becomes rotted both inside and out. Anything from an inspection, to treatment, or wood repairs should be done by a professional. Finding a company like Black Knight Termite and Pest Control, who are not only professionals in Termite and Pest Control Services, but who also have a full crew dedicated to wood repairs, will give added convenience, and a guarantee that everything will be taken care of properly.
