Deck boards rotting or splinteringLarnaca, Larnaca

Rotting or splintering deck boards are a tripping hazard and a sign of advancing structural decay. Soft, spongy boards can give way underfoot, and exposed splinters are painful and prone to infection. The underlying joists may also be affected, turning a simple board replacement into a larger structural repair. A carpenter can assess the full extent of the damage, replace compromised boards and joists, and recommend a maintenance plan to extend the deck's lifespan.

The Mediterranean termite (Reticulitermes lucifugus) is endemic across the district. External timber suffers extreme sun damage on the high-UV coast.
