Signs to Look For

When Exterior Wood Damage Needs a Closer Look

Dry rot and moisture damage can spread behind finished surfaces. We first determine how far the damage extends, then remove and rebuild only what needs attention. For a clearer comparison of dry rot with wet rot, mold and termite damage, read Dry Rot vs. Wet Rot, Mold and Termite Damage: What Homeowners Should Know.

Dry Rot FAQ

Questions Homeowners Commonly Ask

Can you tell how far the damage extends before opening the wall?

Not always. The visible damage shows us where to start, but we may need to open the area to see how far the rot has spread.

Do you replace siding and trim as part of the repair?

Yes. If siding, trim or other exterior materials are damaged by the same problem, they can be repaired as part of the project.

Do you handle deck or balcony wood damage?

Yes. Peak handles deck repair, rebuilding and balcony repairs when damaged wood is part of the project.

What should I send with an estimate request?

Your ZIP code, a short description of the damaged area and a few photos are useful starting points.
