Specialist Timber Assessment & Preventative Protection
Timber deterioration commonly develops where moisture is present over extended periods, often due to water ingress, condensation, inadequate ventilation, or historic damp defects. These conditions increase the likelihood of fungal decay and wood-boring insect activity, particularly within concealed or poorly ventilated areas such as floor voids, roof spaces, and structural junctions.
Timber preservation treatment is specified following a professional survey where timbers remain serviceable but are assessed as being at increased risk. Surveyors consider the location, condition, and structural role of affected timbers before determining whether preservation is appropriate. This may include retained timbers following remedial treatment, embedded or bedded structural elements, or areas where environmental control remains limited.
With over 50 years’ experience in damp and timber diagnosis, Prokil specifies timber preservation treatment using a measured and compliant approach. All recommendations align with recognised industry standards, ensuring treatment is applied proportionately and only where preservation is suitable. Where survey findings identify compromised structural performance, repair or replacement is specified instead.
