Like any wooden structure in your home, your roof is vulnerable to damage from water intrusion and termites.
Water and termite can damage your roof deck and lead to leaks and more rot. When moisture reaches under the roofing tile or shingle and trapped for extended period, the wood deck gets damaged. Furthermore, the moisture attracts termites and termites thrive in the damp environment.
Drywood termites live and feed inside wood. They establish colonies inside ceiling rafters, roof beams, eaves and other wooden structures associated with your roof. They will slowly eat away the roof boards. In the worst-case scenario, the roof structure could collapse. Here are some examples of termite damage repair and wood rot on roof structure.

TERMITE DAMAGE REPAIR AND RESTORATION
Here at All Climate Roofing, we are not just roofers, but roofers with carpentry skills.
We have taken on a variety of wood repair projects from rebuilding & repairing rafters and beams, to replacing ridge boards, fascia boards, eave boards and plywood. We also repair damaged siding & trim, rebuild wood patio and wood deck.
The first step of wood damage repair and restoration is to completely expose all the damage. We need to remove all the roofing materials or decking materials over the wood structure and inspect the damage.
In most cases, we will remove the damaged wood structure and replace with new wood structure. Sometimes, we will add a “sister” piece to the damaged section to strength the existing wood structure.
We completely seal our exposed wood surfaces with industrial grade caulking and 2 coats high-quality exterior grade paint.
Painting the exposed wood surface is one of the best ways to prevent termite infestation because termites don’t like paint. The final step, we will install roofing and decking materials.
