## FAQ
### What causes wood rot?
Rot is caused by fungi that need moisture. It usually starts where water sits: under failed caulk, at the bottom of door frames, behind clogged gutters, or where wood touches soil.

### Will you use PVC or composite instead of wood?
Where it fits the house, we often recommend cellular PVC trim for areas prone to moisture because it doesn’t rot, and it paints like wood.
