DRY ROT & WOOD REPAIRS
Water intrusion, aging materials, and construction defects can lead to dry rot and structural wood damage in decks, walls, siding, framing, and other exterior building components.
DRY ROT & WOOD REPAIRS
Water intrusion, aging materials, and construction defects can lead to dry rot and structural wood damage in decks, walls, siding, framing, and other exterior building components.
Architectural Restoration & Waterproofing (ARC) provides comprehensive dry rot and wood repair services throughout San Francisco, Marin County, and the greater Bay Area, addressing both damaged materials and the conditions that allowed deterioration to occur.
Our approach goes beyond simply replacing rotted wood. ARC identifies areas of deterioration, removes compromised materials, completes necessary structural and carpentry repairs, and integrates appropriate waterproofing, coatings, stucco, concrete, and painting systems to help protect the repaired area from future moisture intrusion.
Dry Rot Deck Repair
Decks are particularly vulnerable to dry rot because they are continuously exposed to moisture and weather. Failed waterproofing, deteriorated coatings, improper drainage, and aging construction materials can allow water to penetrate into wood decking and structural components.
ARC’s dry rot deck repair services can include removal and replacement of deteriorated wood, repair or reconstruction of damaged deck components, and installation of new waterproofing systems. Depending on the structure and project requirements, we work with wood, composite, and redwood decking and can incorporate tile finishes.
Deck restoration projects frequently require several trades working together. ARC can combine carpentry and dry rot repair with elastomeric or cementitious waterproofing, concrete restoration, coatings, and painting, providing a coordinated solution for the entire affected area.
Dry Rot Wall & Structural Wood Repair
Dry rot can also develop behind stucco, siding, exterior walls, and other building finishes where deterioration may remain hidden until cracking, staining, movement, or other visible damage appears.
Building movement, failed waterproofing, damaged exterior finishes, or problems with the original construction can create openings that allow water to reach wood framing. Over time, continued moisture exposure can deteriorate siding, sheathing, joists, framing, and other structural wood components.
ARC can remove damaged materials and complete the necessary wood framing, joist, siding, and wall repairs before restoring the exterior building envelope. Depending on the existing construction, restoration may include new siding, stucco repair, wood preparation and priming, painting, and breathable elastomeric coatings.

Repairing the Damage — and the Source of the Problem
Replacing visibly deteriorated wood is only part of a successful dry rot repair. Whenever possible, ARC also evaluates the conditions contributing to the deterioration so the repaired structure can be properly protected.
A dry rot and wood restoration project may involve:
- Removal and replacement of dry rot-damaged wood
- Structural wood and framing repairs
- Deck repair and reconstruction
- Joist and siding replacement
- Stucco and exterior wall restoration
- Elastomeric and cementitious waterproofing
- Concrete repair adjacent to damaged areas
- Protective coatings and painting
- Repairs designed to restore the building envelope and reduce future water intrusion
Because dry rot is frequently connected to broader waterproofing or exterior-building problems, ARC’s experience across multiple restoration disciplines allows us to address complex projects without treating each component in isolation.
