Rotten wood can weaken the support system of a pier and beam home and create noticeable problems inside the living space. Soft floors, sagging areas, musty odors, damaged subflooring, or visible decay in the crawl space are signs that wood components may no longer be providing the support the home needs.
A+ Prolift Foundation Repair & Drainage Systems removes damaged wood and replaces it with solid, properly supported materials. Our team looks at the condition of beams, joists, subflooring, piers, and moisture-prone areas so the repair addresses both the visible damage and the conditions that allowed the wood to deteriorate.
Schedule an inspection if your floors feel soft, uneven, or affected by moisture damage.
Rotten wood often develops when moisture is trapped beneath the home or when crawl space conditions remain damp over time. Simply covering the problem does not restore strength. Damaged material should be removed, the affected area should be evaluated, and replacement components should be installed with proper support.
Depending on the home, repairs may include replacing rotten beams, floor joists, sill plates, subfloor sections, or other structural wood components. When needed, we can also recommend drainage or moisture-control improvements to help protect the new materials and reduce future damage.
