"Aaron and his co-worker arrived at the specified time, both very polite and got right to work. I was told attic work would take about 2 hours, and was spot on. The outside work about 3+hours, again the correct estimate. All work on the original itemized proposal was done, and was shown one of the difficult repair and explained, the only reason I noticed this repair is that I did not have touch-up paint, which they offered to do had I had some, my loss. Total experience was outstanding and they said they would follow-up in a year with my automatic 2year warranty. The office followed up to ask if all work done and if satisfied with the service. I will be calling them again for work on a rental I own. "

"I worked with Alpha once before, and they assisted with a second project 2 years ago which, now finally completed, I'm able to write a review about. Alpha helped with structural plans for windows in a garden level unit in order to prepare the proposal for city approval. Alpha is a big company and it took them a little while to complete everything; however I can certainly say that the engineer and contact people were knowledgeable and thorough. The plans were approved with their help and now that the unit is permitted for occupancy, the windows are a lovely attribute to the space."

Look for wood that appears darker than the surrounding materials, feels spongy when pressed, or crumbles easily when touched. Dry rot often creates a distinctive cube-like cracking pattern and may have a musty, fungal odor. In advanced cases, you might notice white or gray fungal growth resembling cotton or mushroom-like structures.
Regular inspections of basements, crawlspaces, and areas around plumbing fixtures help catch problems early before they cause significant structural damage.
Most standard homeowners' policies exclude dry rot repair coverage because insurers classify it as preventable maintenance rather than sudden, accidental damage. Your policy often covers water damage from specific incidents like burst pipes, but the resulting dry rot remediation often falls outside coverage parameters. Some policies offer limited coverage if the rot directly results from a covered peril, but this varies by insurer.
Always review your specific policy details and consult with your insurance representative about your particular situation.
The timeline varies considerably based on damage extent and location. Minor repairs to window frames or trim might take only one to two days from start to finish. More substantial structural repairs involving floor joists, support beams, or foundation elements require one to two weeks or longer.
The process includes assessment, demolition, treatment, reconstruction, and finishing work. Weather conditions, material availability, and the need for specialized contractors all influence the overall timeline for project completion.
Yes, untreated dry rot will continue to spread throughout wooden structures in your home. The fungus can extend through wood and even across some masonry surfaces via fungal strands called mycelium. Under favorable conditions (moisture and moderate temperatures), dry rot can advance rapidly, compromising structural integrity across multiple areas.
The fungus produces airborne spores that establish new colonies wherever they find suitable conditions, making prompt treatment essential to prevent widespread damage and much costlier repairs.
