Hi,
I have a problem with an entire floor in one of my rooms, confirmed wet rot / woodworm although brickwork is sound.
A couple of quotes I have had basically involved removing everything wooden, laying a new floor and spraying.
My problem is weighing up the huge cost compared to the alternative which is a friend who can lay a new floor in uninfected environments and a friendly building supply I work with who can supply all the flooring stock required.
My main concern is the "spraying". if it's wet rot and im removing everyhing wooden in the room, the new wood is pre treated and sealed, what exactly is left to sprayed. Is this just a precaution to kill off anything thats left?
Any advice would be appreciated.
