Clean Image Services, Inc., is a full service disaster restoration company, with locations in Ellensburg, Yakima, and Moses Lake. Specializing in water and fire cleanup as well as mold remediation, our certified technicians are trained to handle your project from start to finish. We're here to give you our best!

"I hired Clean Image on work on May 1, 2024 to fulfill their bid proposal at a cost of $2,700 and change. They arrived promptly at 9:00 am and began working, continuing until approximately 7:00 pm. Once they were gone I started inspecting their work hoping to be duly impressed by their efforts. Unfortunately, I started noticing issues immediately; the cap to the door side water connection was broken off and discarded under the trailer. There were scuffs to the striping and tears in three places. I notified Steve Hathaway the next morning when he arrived and pointed out the damage. “Repairs” were performed on May 9th after I had paid the invoice. A piece of white vinyl tape was slapped haphazardly over one tear as a repair. The water connection was replaced without caulking the edges, as the original had been sealed. When I went to seal the fitting myself, I found all four screw holes stripped out. I repaired the holes and sealed the fitting."

FAQs for dry rot, water or pest damage major repair projects in Yakima, WA

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.
