Newton Waterproofing Triton Systems Wykamol Group Delta Membranes Safeguard / Dryzone PCA Member Frequently Asked QuestionsWood Rot Treatment FAQs ----------------------- ### Do you only treat the timber or also the damp cause? The damp cause has to be dealt with as well, otherwise the same problem can return even after timber treatment. ### How do I know if timber rot is active? That depends on moisture conditions, the extent of decay, and whether the cause is still ongoing. We assess that as part of the inspection. ### Can rotten timber always be saved? Not always. Some timber can be treated and repaired, while badly damaged sections may need replacement.
