Does wood rot spread?

• <div><p>Yes, wood rot spreads and causes damage due to fungi. All forms of wet rot caused by fungi spread throughout the frame and door, but they’ll stop when encountering non-wood materials. Dry rot, on the other hand, spreads throughout the area to wood with porous openings to accept the spores.</p></div>

Q: Does wood rot impact other parts of the home?

• <div><p>Yes, any part of the home where wood meets water is susceptible to wood rot. This includes underneath sinks, decks, windowsills, window frames, basements, attics, and eaves, among other locations. Conduct regular inspections of these areas to spot the beginning stages of wood rot. Even the wood under roof shingles can rot and affect other areas.</p></div>

Q: Does insurance cover wood rot?

• <div><p>Wood rot is not normally covered by insurance except in rare cases when it results from a covered event like a burst pipe. Wood rot is categorized as gradual, preventable damage, so most insurance policies won&rsquo;t pay for claims to repair wood rot damage. Check your policy to find out if wood rot is covered before making a claim. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between wood epoxy and wood filler?

• <div><p>Wood epoxy is used to fill larger areas of damaged wood and has stronger adhesion than wood filler. Epoxy dries to a hard, waterproof finish and can be harder to sand than filler. Wood filler stays flexible for longer than epoxy, and is used for smaller areas of damage. Both are available in paintable options, although it&rsquo;s easier to stain filler than epoxy.</p></div>

Q: Can you replace only one section of a gutter?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to replace only one section of a gutter, and it&rsquo;s a common repair. Often, a tree limb will damage a gutter on one side of the house, or constant weather will cause early corrosion. Gutters are often joined together with couplings that are easy to remove and swap out. For this reason, some homeowners will purchase extra gutters when they install them to have spare sections to use for replacement later.</p></div>
