What Problems Commonly Affect Wood Post Structures?

Many issues can affect wood post structures, such as rot and decay, termites and other insect infestations, moisture damage, etc. If you have such a building, it’s a good idea to inspect it regularly in order to catch any problems early.

What Makes Wood Rot Such A Problem?

Once wood rot begins, it’s impossible to stop it. That used to mean shelling out for expensive repairs involving column replacement, but now there is a better way.

Repairing Post-Frame Columns Has Become Easier

Traditionally, repairing damaged sections of a wood post structure was a daunting undertaking. You had to erect temporary braces to support the building while you worked, and you had to remove the broken or rotted post and then replace it. The Anthem Built products have revolutionized the process with products like these:

  • Column repair sleeves: These are long-lasting, high-quality and available in all sizes and dimensions. They work with almost any column and are quick and easy to install. Made of corrugated, 10-gauge galvanized steel, they reinforce your compromised columns and stop further deterioration.
  • Column covers: These corrugated, 10-gauge galvanized steel covers reinforce your your rotten columns and allow you to attach new secure and reliable grade boards and other components.
  • Repair sockets: Instead of replacing wood columns, these repair sockets help strengthen and secure your problem columns. They are versatile and work on any post-frame structure with a stable concrete floor.
  • Galvanized grade boards: These boards are straight and even and available in lengths up to 24”. These boards provide a permanent repair for buildings suffering from decay, or if used in new construction allow you to avoid the issues of wood grade boards entirely.

Fixing A Foundation? We Make It Easier!

It has traditionally been common to build a post-frame foundation by installing wood columns, which were susceptible to problems like rot. However, better options now exist. Our galvanized grade board, in conjunction with our column repair sleeves, often allow you to restore your building’s foundation one day and without excavation!
