What is Dry Rot?

Dry rot is a wood-destroying fungus that compromises the strength and structure of your home's wood. It can affect exterior siding, beams, banisters, and even interior framing. Despite its name, dry rot thrives in moist environments, making it especially common in areas with high humidity.

If left untreated, dry rot can lead to costly structural damage. It often starts out of sight and progresses quietly, making early detection and repair critical.


Signs You Might Have Dry Rot

Knowing what to look for can help you catch dry rot before it spreads:

  • Musty Odors – A damp, moldy smell is often the first sign of fungal growth.

  • Discolored or Moldy Wood – Look for brown, red, or grey mold-like growth on wooden surfaces.

  • Cracked or Darkened Wood – Wood that appears shrunken, brittle, or unusually dark could be affected.

If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to call in the experts.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to your common questions about our Dry Rot Repair Services.

  • What causes dry rot and how can it affect my home?

    Dry rot is caused by a type of fungus that thrives in damp, poorly ventilated areas of your home. It can lead to severe structural damage as it weakens wood, making it essential to address the issue promptly.

  • How does J Christian Geckle Construction handle dry rot repair?

    We start with a thorough inspection to assess the extent of the damage. Then, we remove the affected wood, treat the remaining areas to prevent recurrence, and replace the damaged sections with high-quality materials.

  • Can I identify dry rot myself, or do I need a professional inspection?

    While you might notice some signs of dry rot such as a musty smell, wood that’s crumbling or darkened, a professional inspection is recommended for accurate assessment and to identify the extent of the damage.

  • What should I do if I suspect dry rot in my home?

    If you suspect dry rot, contact us immediately for a free inspection. Prompt action can prevent further damage and save on repair costs.

  • Is dry rot repair covered by my homeowners’ insurance?

Testimonials

Our clients love us

Here's some of what they had to say

Jeff has been great to work with and I would highly recommend using Jeff. I had 14 windows that need to be replaced as well as 2 french doors. Jeff was able to work around the existing house manufacturers flaws by retrofitting my new windows securely and making the look amazing. Jeff’s a perfectionist and it shows in his work. I experienced zero issues and Jeff’s quote was spot on at the time of completion.

We had Jeff repair some dry rot on the fascia board coming off my roof and he did a fantastic job. On time, fair pricing and great results. He also looked at something else that needed repair on my house and fixed that as well. Old school work ethic and doesn't take any shortcuts. Can't recommend him enough.

We had rotten fascia and eave's soffits. I had multiple estimates done prior to finding Jeff Christian Geckle, none of the other contractors proposed full solutions except re-roofing. Jeff found the solution: he replaced all damaged fascia boards, installed new siding over garage door, repaired eaves as needed and install new fiber wood soffits all around the house. Excellent work!! We were so impressed that we had him repaint the whole exterior of the house. If you have any damaged wood around the house he is the contractor to call. Prices are very reasonable.
