3Types of Wet Rot
Wet Rot is a general term for several fungal
species, the most common being Coniophora
Puteana, also known as cellar fungus. There are
two common broad types of wet rot
White rot
When wet rot fungus attacks certain species of
woods, the resulting decay can take on a whiter
looking appearance. This is known as white rot.
White rot occurs when the fungus digests the
lignin - a polymer that bonds the cells of wood
together and gives it natural rigidity. White rot
occurs when the fungus digests the lignin and
cellulose therefore stripping out the darker
colours with it. This gives the timber a soft
spongy feel when touched.
Brown rot
Brown rot takes on a darker appearance than white
rot. It can look closely matched to the affected
timber colour. Sometimes the wet rot fungus cant
digest the lignin in certain species of timber so
it feeds on sugars and cellulose instead. This
gives the affected wood a brown appearance.
