Why timber rots
Rot is caused by fungi that need moisture. It starts where water sits or soaks in: under sills, at the base of walls, behind gutters and on horizontal surfaces of verandahs and stairs. Brisbane's humidity and summer rain make it common.
Fixing the cause
Replacing rotten timber is only part of the job. We also look at why it got wet, such as missing flashing, blocked drainage or paint failure, and suggest how to stop it happening again.

Wood rot repairs: common questions
Can I just fill rotten timber?
Filler can work for small, shallow areas of decay on non structural trim. Where rot goes deep or the timber carries load, it should be cut out and replaced.
