Termite Attic Wood Repair: Rafters, Trusses, and Sheathing

Termites rarely announce themselves in the attic with a sudden collapse. It is more of a quiet, long campaign, hidden inside rafters, webs of truss members, and the roof sheathing that takes the first sun every day. I have opened attics where the surface of a rafter looked perfectly fine, only to push a screwdriver through what was left of the core.

Timeline for Repairing Termite Damage to a House

A termite problem rarely shows up all at once. It’s a series of soft spots, hairline cracks, hollow-sounding trim, and doors that start sticking after a rainy week. By the time the signs are obvious, most homeowners are thinking about two things: how bad is it, and how long will it take to make the house sound again. The good news is that termite damage repair follows a predictable path. The pace shifts with the extent of the damage, but the sequence is steady, and that mak
