Wraps Won���t Rot
Fypon���s PVC Column Wraps are semiassembled, two-piece products that come
in a complete kit with the cap, base,
installation cleats and caulk adhesive. The
external installation cleats never touch the
center post. The PVC pieces, which wrap
around pressure-treated wood posts or steel,
resist rotting and do not attract insects. The
nonstructural wraps are available in plain,
fluted, raised panel, double raised panel,
recessed panel and tapered styles.

Moulding
Series Expands
Versatex Trimboard has introduced two
moulding profiles made from weatherresistant cellular PVC. The 8-in. crown
moulding and a water-table profile are
compatible with the existing field of the
company���s exterior trim system. The 8-in.
profile is 25 percent wider than previous
crown moulding options. The water table is
an updated, maintenance-free version of a
traditional moulding profile used to deflect
rainfall and prevent seepage behind trim
and siding.
Restoration Millwork cellular PVC square
porch column wraps from CertainTeed
Corp. slide around existing posts. The wraps
are pre-cut, pre-mitered and pre-assembled
to ensure quick application to existing loadbearing wood porch posts. They come in a
smooth, natural white finish with two
traditional cap and base trim set styles ���
classic and estate. Eight- by 8-in. and 10by 10-in. widths with a standard 9-ft. height
are available.

as well as time and labor savings even further.

reminiscent of old world, milled mouldings.

protection. They are an option for replacing
wood, too.
