Dry rot is a serious issue that can compromise the structural integrity of your home or commercial property. At M&L Construction, we specialize in identifying, treating, and repairing dry rot to ensure your building remains safe, strong, and damage-free.
Dry rot is a type of wood decay caused by a fungus that thrives in damp, poorly ventilated areas. It weakens wood, causing it to crumble and deteriorate over time. While it often starts in hidden areas, such as crawl spaces, basements, or behind walls, it can quickly spread and cause extensive damage if left untreated.
Common Signs of Dry Rot:
Cracked or brittle wood with a dry, crumbly texture
A musty, damp odor
Fungal growth on wood surfaces
Discoloration or shrinking of timber
Loose or damaged structures, like beams and flooring

“M&L construction just completed our backyard fence and retaining wall and we are very pleased. The quote was reasonable and the job started on schedule and was completed quickly. Mark the GM knows his stuff. I would use him again for other jobs”
Client Relationship Manager
“Mark had his team install a redwood fence in the backyard and a smaller fence in the front. They did an excellent job and I am very pleased with the work. The fences were up in no time at all and the crew cleaned up after themselves. I’m glad I chose M& L Construction to put up the fences. They couldn’t look nicer.”
Small Business Owner
“Had a badly worn out fence and gate removed and replaced with a new redwood one. The price was right, the end result is exceptional. They worked quickly, cleaned up well, and delivered a product I am very pleased with and am confident is well constructed. When my other fences get to point where I need then replaced these will be the people I call.”
Medium Size Business Owner
“Found Mark on yelp. Had him do an estimate on 40 feet on retaining wall and fence.
His estimate was slightly higher than other contractors, but after talking to the contractors again, his estimate was for 3×12 and other estimates were for 2×12 construction. Work went as scheduled with good communication though out (2 days).
The fence was a custom modern style fence with horizontal planks and came out very nice, better then expected. Entire job was top notch, very professional.”
