It also can bring about some things that need to be done. You may need to get that dry rot repaired before the loan funding. That repair isn’t always a serious matter.

I got a call from a loan representative that called me with a request to give an estimate to satisfy a termite report. The termite report didn’t have a lot of repairs, just a handful of exterior wood rot. The repairs today involved removing and replacing wood siding, window trim, and a wood window shelf. There were some areas that revealed damage beyond the original scope of work, so there was a slight additional cost. That happens sometimes with termite reports.

We were able to wrap things up in a day. The wood was replaced, caulking applied, and the work area cleaned up. The repair area is ready for paint and re-inspection.

One of the advantages of hiring someone with dry rot repair experience is that the extent of the repairs can be more accurately anticipated. Some areas of a termite report tends to have further areas of repair that is not yet seen. Having done enough of these repairs, you learn where the real problem areas are located. The report that I received didn’t have any of those problem spots, just minor adjustments.
