How to Recognize Wood Rot
All it takes is wood, water, and warmth. Wood rot is generally easy to repair, although you can't fix it until you find it. With a 5-in-1 tool carefully inspect the horizontal boards that may not drain completely, like corner joints, window sills, drip caps, end grain and wood that is close to masonry or dirt. Also, look for paint that is blistering, peeling or cracked and wood that is darker than the surrounding area or contains green algae. If you're able to push the tool's tip easily into a suspect board, then it's time to root out the rot.
