ABSTRACT:
A method of repairing wood rot in a structural member. In an exemplary method, rotted material is removed from the structural member to create a repair area. The repair area is treated with a fungicide to kill the fungus that causes the wood rot, and at least one reinforcement member is placed in the repair area. The repair area is filled with filler material to complete the repair.
