Any advice on the likely cost for woodworm and rot spray treatment please? It is a completely open barn with no attics or impediments other than the height.. the roof is substantial A trusses and timber sarking boards (with gaps) measuring 400m2 of surface, on slope. Plus some floor joists and floor boards, 100m2. All softwood, probably all local and wide grained. Nothing on the floor to worry about, and masses of fresh air whistling through. Eaves 3m , ridges 5.5m and I assume they carry long lances so can be done from the ground. Does not need a survey. there is worm and there is rot and they need to be treated, esp the worm. There is no death watch in the highlands (too warm and dry for them?) , and as far as i know, that is the one that needs different treatment.

How good are different brands of multi-purpose wood treatments? I need to soak treat some timber which will be used externally. Last time I used Cuprinol 5* treatment, obtained from Wickes for about £21 per 5 litres (3 for 2 etc). That offer is not now on, so I am will be forking out at least an extra £10 per 5 litre container. So I am looking a little more widely. Does anyone have any recommendation amongst, for example, Screwfix No Nonsense, Sikaguard Universal, Rustins etc? Thanks in advance. Ferdinand
