Imperial Productions & Distribution Inc. sells wood specific for exterior
applications.
These woods are Western Red Cedar or White Pine.
When you get your new
exterior wood base or column the following are
recommendations for your consideration.
If your wood bases
or columns are sitting on concrete make sure that there is poly
(like you would use
for vapor barrier) between the concrete and the wood, as concrete
creates a chemical
reaction with wood which will degrade it faster.
Concrete is
alkaline and eats away at wood.
