Lifecote Dry and Wet Rot    

How to fix, solve, treat and prevent Dry Rot in Buildings                                                                                                           

Dry rot is the most serious of decay to be found in buildings. Damp timbers with inadequate ventilation are the most susceptible to dry rot attack. Once established the dry rot will spread rapidly growing through plaster, brickwork and masonry, in search of further timbers to attack. Infected timbers will become dry, crack and lose their natural strength, and if left untreated, may lead to structural failure.
