Do you comply with CSA Standard A440.4-07?

At the end of 2016, the revised CSA Standard A440.4-07 became the national Standard of Canada for the installation of windows, doors, and skylights in low-rise and residential buildings. According to this new standard, rigid and flexible flashings are required to be made of materials such as reinforced bitumen and/or rigid metal containing aluminum, copper, galvanized metal or other non-ferrous metal. This standard applies to renovations and new residential constructions.

Mountain Bark Cedar Mulch

We stock Mountain Bark Cedar Mulch and Pure Country Split cedar rail fencing.

Premium Western Red Cedar is one of the most aromatic and durable mulches on the market. This mulch is reddish-brown in color with a hint of orange. The shredded fibre nature of cedar mulch increases its wind resistance to help prevent it from blowing around. Western Red Cedar bark mulch has an anti fungal property which helps it last a long time and also contains a natural herbicide for weed control.

It comes in a 4' x 4'6" bale that weighs 1500 lbs and contains 5.5 cubic yards (about half of a gravel truck load when fluffed up) . Each bale covers an area 500-600 sq ft 3-4" thick. We can set a bale in the back of your pick up, or we can deliver with our hitchhiker forklift and put it right where you need the product. Each bale sells for $250 plus GST. Delivery is extra. Check it out at www.mountainbark.com

You make a Difference...

Natalie Benoit-Baronette from Nipissing Siding and Windows Ltd. in Sturgeon Falls, ON, would like to give a pat on the back to Dan Legault from Vicwest.

"Dan goes well beyond being your typical 'sales representative,'" says Natalie. "He assists us in quoting, plan reading, projects, etc. and is willing to go on job sites to assure the accuracy of the material and quotation."

"Dan attends and helps out during our home shows to help promote and sell his products," she adds. "He educates my installers on various pointers and installation guidelines."

"Most importantly, Dan makes himself available to us anytime. He is a simple phone call away anytime weekends & evenings included" says Natalie.

Thank you, Dan Legault, for going above and beyond and making a difference to us and our customers!

Sikkens is now ProLuxe

Preserving the natural state of cedar has been a goal of "The Cedar Shop" for 39 years; the "Sikkens®" brand has been a major part of that process. We feel it necessary to explain a few changes that have taken place in regards to the "Sikkens®/ProLuxe™" brand and name.

The "Sikkens®" brand name will soon no longer be associated with the wood coatings division of PPG. The brand was purchased by PPG in North America with the agreement of replacing the "Sikkens®" brand name over a set period of time. PPG will rename their product with "ProLuxe™" label.

In light of recent events, we would like to reassure our customers that the ingredients have not changed; the name change will have no bearing on the process for which it is made leaving you with the same fantastic product you've come to love over the past years. We are proud to say that we have customers that have been purchasing these products for thirty plus years and will continue to use the "ProLuxe™" products because of the high-quality finish that it provides.

We were pleased to see the "Cetol® "name will remain; it's the name that's most associated in regards to finishing wood or staining. If it's a multi coat finish your looking for, then Cetol® 1 is your answer. It can be used on a two, or three coat application (depending on what and where you are staining); when cured, you won't find a more luxurious or satisfying finish. The translucent state of the Cetol® 1 finish after it has cured is amazing and part of this is due to the process in which their pigment is made. The product is so fine, that it seems to magnify and enhance the wood grain giving it an amazing clarity and softness. A 24-hour minimum dry time between coats is recommended.

Performance Highlights

• Penetrating alkyd-oil formula offers excellent penetration and adhesion
• Part of a 3-coat system with Cetol® 23 Plus RE
• High-transparency nano-pigments increase protection and clarity
• Powerful UV absorbers protect color and wood substrate
• Water repellent
• Provides a mildew-resistant finish
• Excellent block resistance
• An alternative to Cetol® Door & Window for additional color options
• An alternative to Cetol® Log & Siding for additional color options
• Can also be used alone on fences and furniture as a 2-coat system

To round out the Cetol® line is the SRD product (sidings, rails, decks). It is a one coat finish and is very forgiving, and easy to apply. You can apply with a natural bristle brush, a roller, or it can be sprayed. Keep in mind that when you roll or spray SRD, back brushing is essential to avoid any pooling in the board and keeping the finish even throughout; keep a wet edge so you don't get any overlapping effects. If worrying about low lying decks, docks or hot tub areas where moisture would be a major concern due to its inability to breath, the solution is SRD; being a single coat product it will allow trapped moisture to escape the wood without creating a peeling or flaking problem on the finish.

Performance Highlights

• Easy, one-coat application
• High-quality translucent iron oxide pigments provide beautiful color clarity and UV protection
• Excellent penetration

Hopefully this has cleared up a bit of confusion in regards to the brand name changes and informative in regards to a few of our more popular lines in the "ProLuxe™" brand. Have a wonderful spring and Happy Staining!
