How Do You Repair a Pole Barn’s Rotted Wood Posts Without Replacing Them?

For decades, owners of pole barns and other post-frame buildings have sought a way to replace rotted wood posts without replacing them. After all, it is a costly and lengthy process to replace rotted wood columns. First, you must buy replacement wood in a market where the cost of building materials continues to rise. Then, you must spend time or pay a contractor to dig up all the posts. Finally, you will inevitably have to repeat this process repeatedly because moisture, wood-eating insects, poor soil conditions and other factors will deteriorate the replacement posts, too.

Fortunately, the pole barn restoration experts at The Pro Barn Saver can help if you are a post-frame building owner looking for a longer lasting solution. We do exactly what our name implies – we save pole barns. However, we do it without replacing rotted wood posts.
