Featured Products: Poolside & Patio Outdoor Accessories
“The Post Band was developed by doing something that we all should do… listen to our customers. The contractors that install these projects want to give their customers a great experience and finished product. Problem is that wood cracks and it can sometimes be hard to explain to your customer that it is “normal” and “nothing to be concerned about”. The OZCO Post Band can give the contractor another tool and solution to create peace of mind for their customers.

The best thing about having friends that are as close as family is that you get to share in their most embarrassing moments. One of my favorite of these memories has to do with a doghouse that my friend’s father built for a beloved old mutt named Taco.

How to Determine Pergola Rafter Spacing
Careful pergola rafter spacing along with attractive hardware will make your pergola a thing of beauty.

The seashore is a wildlife preserve, and to protect the unique ecosystem of the dunes, we were charged with building boardwalks, viewing platforms, and other elevated areas to keep visitors from treading the delicate flora of the dunes beneath their sandal-clad feet. Sometimes we would build pergolas on the existing deck surface of these platforms. The park service had a tendency to order too much...
