Termite damage repair to a hollowed-out wood beam in an Orange County, California home by J&J Wood Repairs

Termite Damage Repair

Termite damage repair is the process of removing and replacing wood that has been hollowed out, weakened, or destroyed by termite activity. Unlike termite extermination (which kills the insects), termite damage repair restores the structural integrity of the wood itself — framing, sub-floors, fascia, eaves, trim, and load-bearing members. At J&J Wood Repairs, every termite damage repair includes a full inspection, written estimate, and code-compliant replacement.

  • Post-treatment wood replacement
  • Structural framing repair
  • Sub-floor and joist repair
  • Fascia and eave restoration
  • Code-compliant work

Dry Rot & Wood Rot Repair

Dry rot is a type of wood decay caused by fungi that break down the cellulose in wood, leaving it soft, crumbly, and structurally compromised. Despite the name, dry rot requires moisture to start — usually from leaks, poor ventilation, or weather exposure. J&J Wood Repairs removes the rotted wood at the source, replaces it with treated material, and seals the area to prevent recurrence. Common repair areas include decks, fascia, soffits, door frames, window sills, siding, and sub-floors.

  • Fascia / soffit / eave restoration
  • Door frame and window sill replacement
  • Siding and trim rot
  • Sub-floor and crawl space rot

Compare

Termite Damage Repair vs Termite Extermination — What's the Difference?

Termite extermination kills the termites; termite damage repair restores the wood they destroyed. Extermination is typically done by pest control companies and prevents future infestations. Termite damage repair is done by wood repair specialists like J&J Wood Repairs and replaces the structural wood, fascia, sub-floors, and trim that termites have hollowed out. Most homeowners need both — first the exterminator, then the repair contractor.

Termite Extermination

  • • Kills active termite infestation
  • • Performed by pest control / fumigation companies
  • • Does not replace damaged wood
  • • Typically first step

Termite Damage Repair (J&J)

  • • Replaces wood termites hollowed out
  • • Performed by wood repair specialists
  • • Restores structural integrity & appearance
  • • Done after extermination

Dry Rot vs Wet Rot — What's the Difference?

Dry rot is caused by a specific fungus (Serpula lacrymans) that produces a dry, crumbly, cube-like wood decay pattern. Wet rot is caused by various fungi requiring constant moisture, producing a soft, spongy decay. Both require professional repair, but dry rot is more aggressive and can spread to structurally sound wood through fungal threads. J&J Wood Repairs identifies and repairs both.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does termite damage repair cost in Orange County?

Termite damage repair in Orange County typically costs between $1,500 and $4,000 for most jobs, though minor cosmetic repairs may run $500 and major structural work can exceed $8,000. Final pricing depends on damage extent, accessibility, and materials. J&J Wood Repairs provides free, written, on-site estimates.

How is termite damage repair different from termite extermination?

Termite extermination kills the termites and is performed by pest control companies.

How do I know if I have dry rot or wet rot?

Dry rot looks dry, crumbly, and cracks in a cube-like pattern, often with a musty smell and white or yellow fungal growth. Wet rot looks soft, spongy, and dark, with a constant moisture source nearby. Both require professional repair. J&J Wood Repairs identifies and repairs both for free.
