Floor Joist and Sill Plate Repair
A floor joist, rim joist, or sill plate often becomes the victim of wood rot or termite damage. Many times the trouble stems from improper drainage or soil placed to close to the frame of the structure. Water entering the crawlspace area can also lead to problems. Too much water results in high humidity levels. This humidity causes moisture to form on the wood increasing the chance for rot. Termites also love the moisture. We will not only make the needed repairs to the affected areas, but can help minimize future issues by finding solutions for eliminating the source of the problem. We can help you now.
