WHY CHOOSE IT
Benefits for your home
- Provides post installation as part of a planned porch or deck build.
- Addresses worn or unsuitable posts when replacement is needed.
- Allows the support layout and visible finish to be considered together.
When is it a good fit?
This service is relevant to new construction and projects where an existing post needs replacement. A roof-support post, deck-support post and railing post serve different purposes and should be specified for their particular use.
How does it compare?
A new post is part of the supporting construction; a cedar wrap is a finish around a suitable post. Decorative cladding cannot substitute for the required member, base or connections. The post material, size and installation details depend on the project.
Care & installation considerations
Bases, connections and supporting construction need to suit the loads and site conditions. Replacement of a load-bearing post requires a plan to support the existing structure during the work. Those details should be established before installation.
Planning your project
Share the location, approximate height and number of posts, plus photos if they are replacements. We can review the scope and whether you also want a cedar finish. The image is design inspiration, not a structural installation detail.
