In this video, I finally fix some termite damage! I found this wood damage while looking into why my floor above was bouncy. Some of this rot was probably caused by water because of how it looked. Bugs, ant, termite, and water damage can all look different but all have the same terrible effect on your house. For this rotted wood fix, I added new floor joists, jacked up the floor and replaced the rotted sill. It was a mess but is good as new now!
