In Summary
Timber is a durable and versatile building material, but used for exterior work, it needs regular timber treatment and protection. Without adequate wood protection, timber can become affected by wood rot, woodworm, and fungus. Left unchecked, this can cause serious damage to your timber beams, posts, and panels. There are many timber treatment and protection products on the market, all designed to treat and prevent woodworm, fungus and rot. Seek advice from a professional if you are unsure.
