how to fix rotten pole

Samnet

Hi, we have been into a new house for about 4 months and there is a rotten pole in the main entrance. Looking for any solution to get it fixed.

Thanks

Is this post supporting a roof structure?

If so, the only safe method of fixing this issue is to replace the post.

Can you upload some photos of where it meets the roof structure and how it is connected?

It is likely possible to prop the roof structure with Acrow Props, cut out the post and replace it like-for-like with a suitable post.

Once you've provided some more details, I'd be happy to assist further.
