Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use these posts for ground contact?

Yes, these posts are treated to Use Class 4, which is specifically rated for direct contact with soil or fresh water.

Do I need to treat the cut ends?

It is highly recommended to apply a wood preservative to any freshly cut end-grain to prevent moisture ingress and rot.

Why does the color of my posts look different?

As a natural timber product, color variations are normal and depend on the specific cut and age of the wood used.

Can I paint these posts?

Yes, you can paint or stain these posts once they have settled and the surface is completely dry.

Are these posts heavy?

Yes, being 90mm x 90mm timber, they have significant mass; ensure you have assistance when moving and installing them.

Troubleshooting

Post is wobbling after installation

Ensure the concrete footing is adequately sized and cured; check that the post was buried to the recommended depth.

Surface cracks or splits appearing

Minor checking is a natural characteristic of timber as it expands and contracts; check that the split does not compromise the structural depth of the post.

Pros and Cons

  • Solid 90mm x 90mm construction for maximum stability

  • Suitable for direct ground contact

  • Requires proper cutting tools for custom lengths

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your Snowdon Timber posts, ensure they are set in a concrete or high-quality aggregate base when placed in the ground to prevent standing water from pooling around the timber. While the post is treated for durability, any custom cuts made during installation should be sealed with a high-quality timber preservative to maintain the integrity of the treatment.

Regular maintenance involves simple visual inspections once per year for any signs of surface wear or loosening of the soil around the base. If you choose to paint or stain the posts, ensure the timber has fully dried after the initial installation period, and use a breathable wood finish suitable for treated exterior timber.
