Kiln Drying for Longevity

KILN DRY Before Treatment - The most common failure of a post or pole is rot and decay at the ground line. By kiln drying your posts before they are treated, we significantly increase the life of your project.

Kiln drying pulls excess moisture from the post or pole allowing the pressure treatment to fully penetrate the wood. The additional cost of this service is minimal (usually less than $1 for a 4" Top x 8 ft post), especially considering the fact that the pre-drying will effectively double the life of a post used for a fence. Contact us online to ask about pre-drying poles.

Polyshield® Coated Wood for Ultra Protection and Longevity

Get the most life from your poles and pilings with our amazing poly wood coating, a protective polymer coating engineered for use on wood. The special poly wood coating bonds to wood creating a protective barrier that is impenetrable by marine borers or termites.

Engineers and contractors offer poly coated wood to set them apart as offering a product no one else can offer. It is a cost-effective value-add upgrade for customers, creating a product that will last virtually forever. A fence built using treated posts zone coated with poly coated wood will NOT rot at the ground line.

Never Change Your Pilings Again


EcoPile vinyl pilings eliminates the hassle of having to constantly replace pilings weakened by weathering, fungal, and wood-boring.  Since the piling is a vinyl-composite, the typical natural weathering causes that affect pilings are nonexistent.  Additionally, EcoPile vinyl pilings are maintenance free, impact resistant, and protected by a limited 25-year warranty.  That is why EcoPile pilings can last upwards of twice what traditional wood pilings

  • Boat friendly
  • Cost effective
  • Maintenance free
  • UV resistant
  • IR resistant
  • 100% recyclable
  • 100% free of leaching chemicals
  • 100% resistant to wood-boring organisms

Due to the fact that PVC does not wear down in the water, we offer a 25-year warranty on the EcoPile. Theoretically, the EcoPile should last a lifetime and then some.

Helpful Definitions:

Pole - defined by its particular structural installation. If the pole is set with the butt (large end) in the ground, such as a utility pole or barn pole, it is referred to as a pole.
Piling - also defined by its installation. Pilings are driven into the ground with the tip (small end) first.
