Discusses the means and methods of detecting timber decay and damp, briefly outlining the historic use of wood in the construction of dwellings and the role of the timber infestation surveyor. Details the process of a thorough inspection, both external and internal, suggesting that particular note should be taken of high earth or path levels, gaps round window frames, broken guttering, rainwater spillage, cracked renderings, missing slates, defective linings and blocked outlets in gutters, blocked airbricks and sagging roof tiles. Concentrates on fungal and insect damage and stresses the results of dampness. Discusses the importance of thoroughness.
