Husbands 2 Go repairs wood damage from termites and dry rot on homes, businesses, and rental properties across Gilbert and the East Valley. Once the pest control company has treated the infestation, we are the crew that cuts out the damaged wood and rebuilds it sound. Call 520-508-1420 or schedule an estimate to have the damage assessed.
The homeowner’s worst nightmare, handled
Termites are more than a common household pest; they are every homeowner’s worst nightmare. They work quietly, out of sight, and by the time most people notice them, the wood they have been eating is already compromised. From our experience, the sooner a termite infestation is dealt with, the less it will cost you. The same goes for dry rot, the fungal decay that sets in wherever wood stays damp, softening it until it crumbles.
One important distinction: exterminators kill termites, but they do not repair what the termites ate. That second half is our job. We remove the damaged wood, replace it with sound material, and finish the repair so the room looks like nothing ever happened.
Where termites do their damage
Knowing where to look is half the battle. The common trouble spots we repair are:
- Hardwood flooring. If your home sits on a slab foundation, termites can enter from the ground at almost any point and begin feeding on hardwood floors from below. On homes with a sub-ground foundation, damage usually starts near the edges of the floor, since termites enter from the perimeter of the foundation.
- Attics and crawlspaces. Most subterranean termites need contact with soil for moisture, but certain species build above-ground nests in dark, damp areas, and an attic or crawlspace fits that description perfectly.
- Door and window framing. Jambs, sills, and trim are frequent casualties of both termites and rot. Damaged frames overlap naturally with our door jamb repair work.
- Fascia, eaves, and exterior trim. Roofline wood takes on moisture every monsoon season, and damp wood invites both rot and pests. We handle these through our exterior repairs service as well.
- Baseboards and drywall backing. Termites tunnel behind walls, and repairs there often include drywall and paint to finish the job invisibly.
Why hire Husbands 2 Go
Structural wood repair is not patch work. Cutting out a damaged section of framing or subfloor and rebuilding it correctly takes real carpentry judgment about what must be replaced, what can be sistered, and what is still sound. We are a licensed, bonded, and insured general contractor with more than 30 years of repair experience, and we perform these repairs on owner-occupied homes, businesses, and rental properties alike, with the finish work included so the repair disappears.
Every repair is backed by our satisfaction guarantee: you do not pay for project completion until you are completely satisfied.
What to expect
Start with a virtual estimate over the phone, or have us out to probe the damage in person, since rot and termite damage often extend beyond what is visible. We will give you an honest scope: what has to come out, what can stay, and what it will take to rebuild. On job day we remove the compromised wood, treat and rebuild the area with sound material, and restore the finished surfaces. If we spot signs of active infestation, we will tell you to bring in pest treatment before we close anything up, because repairing wood that is still being eaten helps nobody. Our Platinum property maintenance plan even includes termite and dry rot checks so the next problem gets caught early.
