The laboratory specializes in the analysis of wood damage caused by fungi and insects, and in mold damage in the home.
Are you looking to buy or renovate an old building and are unsure about the condition of the wooden structures?
Do you need a professional assessment of the extent of wood damage?
Do you have a mold infestation and are unsure whether it poses a health risk or is a structural defect?
I identify the species of fungi and insects based on samples that are sent to me.
I also offer on-site consultation, analyze the damage, and, if necessary, develop a suitable renovation concept for your property together with other experts.
Extensive and expensive renovation work is not always necessary to stop an infestation and repair the damage.
On-site service
In most cases, damage must be assessed directly on site. Often, this is the only way to accurately determine the extent and cause of the damage.
Laboratory analyses and wood treatment
The identification of wood-destroying fungi, insects, or molds takes place in the laboratory. Learn more about the various analysis and wood treatment methods available at the Laboratory for Wood Preservation and Building Biology.
