For
those looking for a wooden fence or gate post that is proven, and guaranteed,
to last for 20 years there are only two options available.
Creosote
treatment is proven to work but is expensive, unpleasant to handle and as a
wood preservative is likely to be phased out due to its very poor environmental
credentials.
This
leaves only one option, which is a post treated with the current
environmentally friendly wood preservative, then fitted with a Postsaver
ground-line barrier sleeve.
Postsaver
ground-line barrier sleeves have been in production since 1994 and are proven
to protect the vulnerable part of the post from ground rot - the No. 1 cause of
fence post failure.
Postsaver
sleeves are low cost, easy to apply and supplied in sizes to fit all fence
& gate posts.
