Common questions

Woodworm Treatment in Ringwood: your questions

How do I know if I have woodworm?

Small round exit holes and fine dust are the usual signs. Our Ringwood inspection confirms whether it is active before any treatment.

Do you replace the affected wood?

Where timber in the Ringwood property is too far gone we cut it out and replace it, then treat the surrounding sound wood.

How do I know if I have woodworm or rot?

Small round exit holes and fine dust point to woodworm; soft, crumbling or cracked timber points to rot. The survey confirms which it is and how serious it has become.

Is dry rot really that serious?

It can be. Dry rot spreads through damp masonry as well as wood, so it needs treating promptly and thoroughly, along with the damp feeding it.

Do you replace the affected wood?

Where timber is too far gone we cut it out and replace it, then treat the surrounding sound wood. Where it can be saved, we treat it in place.
