I am a design/builder. My client, a lifelong friend, and I used Shell- Guard around the entire perimeter of his new heavy-timber framed 3,500 sf home in the dense woods of central Illinois. Knowing that changing planting zones, increase of invasive species and potential longer breeding seasons for wood attacking pests is a real potential there, he wanted state-of-the-art protection. He rests assured this Perma-Chink product provides that peace of mind. Thank you. I will continnue to recommend and use the whole line of products.

I had a concern about an ongoing active powder post beetle problem, and contacted Perma-Chink. The representative explained that while there was a 2-3 week wait while the borate penetrated into the logs, the concentrate delivered a slightly higher level of borate wood preservative and it would take care of the problem. Well worth the wait!
