Unsightly Dry Rotting of Wood.

There is little that makes your surroundings more antiquated and unlivable than dry rot.  It's not uncommon to find a window frame or sill suffering from dry rot.  Ironically this condition is not caused by the wood being dry, but rather, wet, usually for an extended period of time.  Here is what probably happened.

The water entered through a joint between the window frame and the exterior shingles.  Quite simply, the caulk has failed.  This kind of repair is made by first removing all of the rotten wood, then hardening any adjacent surfaces that may have been affected and finally filling the void, in this case, with solid wood and a filler called polyester resin.

It is a job for a true handyman.  And, no matter how you slice it, someone is better equipped to do this in your home than you are!  That someone in the Dallas area is Home Pro Services serving the Metroplex with a variety of professional, guaranteed handyman services for many years.  Just call them at (214) 886-3326.

Repairing Dry Rot.

This is nasty business.  It even sounds bad, and make no mistake about it, it is!  Is dry rot dangerous to your health?  The spores that emanate from dry rot are not a health risk when considered on their own, BUT it is an indication of an underlying problem of excessive moisture which can be dangerous to you or your employee’s health.

Dry rot repair is ideal for areas of wood that have limited structural importance such as a window or door frames.  If you are dealing with beams or joists, then it is advisable that these should be replaced if dry rot is detected.  There are two common ways to repair it.  Either apply wood filler or cut out the rotted wood and replace it with a patch.

Doing this by yourself is possible for the handiest among us, but is that a prospect you wish to face especially if you own a business in the Metroplex?  Why not call the dry rot repair professionals at Home Pro Services?  They have proven over the years to be the Dallas area’s handymen extraordinaire.  Call Home Pro Services today at (214) 886-3326.

It May be a Mistake to just Call the National Termite Guys.

You know their names and they have built a nationwide reputation for ridding your home of termites, BUT there is one thing missing.  Clean up on aisle one!  That’s right, there is repair and replacement to be considered when eradicating these wood-eating pests.  You may need much more than an exterminator.

What about the structural damage those varmints have done?  Framework, fixtures, wallboard, and trim may well need to be repaired or replaced entirely.  Before you make the call for JUST a termite control company think about the larger ramifications of the project.  Terminate that call and call us first!

We are Home Pro Services.  We work with the pest control people to make sure that the job is done completely.  That means cleaning up and fixing damage done by termites or any other pests that invade homes and businesses in the Dallas area.  Give us a call and see for yourself what a difference it will make.  That number is (214) 886-2236.
