Maintenance Matters: Exposed Wood Structures in Multi-Unit Residential Buildings

This Home Protection Office Video discusses the need for ongoing maintenance to exterior wood surfaces.

It is important to ensure that all wood surfaces remain well sealed with paint, stain, or sealer.  All surfaces should also be slopped so that water does not sit on their surfaces.  Annual inspections are recommended and SENWI can assist in this regard.
