To repair dry rot in the foundation sill plate, first, assess the extent of the damage and remove any affected areas using a chisel or saw. Treat the remaining wood with a wood preservative to prevent future rot, then replace the removed sections with treated lumber or a suitable substitute. Ensure proper ventilation and drainage around the foundation to mitigate moisture buildup. Finally, seal the repaired area with paint or a protective coating to enhance durability.
