the essence of legacy design
The Finest in Superior Coatings & Finishes
At the heart of our Legacy Design is an array of top coatings and finishes that transform timber into masterpieces. Our process begins with the application of color-matched, premium stains and coatings that not only protect but also enhance the natural beauty of the wood. These finishes are meticulously chosen to complement your architectural palette, ensuring that each structure harmonizes perfectly with its surroundings.
Color-matched stains
Our stains are selected to bring out the best in the timber, enhancing its natural grains and providing a rich, lasting finish.
premium coatings
These coatings offer superior protection against the elements, preventing damage from UV rays, moisture, and daily wear & tear.
architectural harmony
Each finish is chosen to match the specific aesthetic of your project, ensuring that your structure is as beautiful as it is durable.
Premium post caps for longevity
In addition to our exceptional finishes, our Legacy Design features premium post-caps. These post-caps are more than just decorative elements; they play a crucial role in the longevity of the structure. Crafted from high-quality materials, they protect the ends of the posts from moisture & decay, significantly extending the life of the timber.
High-Quality Materials
Made from durable metals or treated wood, our post-caps are designed to withstand the harshest conditions.
enhanced protection
By preventing water ingress and decay, these post-caps ensure that the structural integrity of your bridge, boardwalk, dock, or pier is maintained over decades.
premium tropical hardwoods
Natural Protection Against The Elements
One of the standout features of YBC’s Legacy Design is the use of tropical hardwoods. These woods are not only visually stunning but also naturally resistant to rot and decay. Their dense, tight grain structure means they require less maintenance and offer greater durability than other types of timber.
natural resistance
Tropical hardwoods are inherently resistant to insects, rot, & decay, making them an ideal choice for structures exposed to the elements.
sustainable sourcing
We ensure that all our tropical hardwoods are sourced responsibly, maintaining a balance between environmental stewardship & quality.
aesthetic appeal
The rich colors and unique grain patterns of these hardwoods add an element of sophistication and natural beauty to every structure.
unmatched durability
built to last 75 years
A YBC Legacy Designed structure is not just built; it is crafted with the future in mind. Our structures are designed to last a minimum of 75 years, setting a new standard in longevity and performance. This is achieved through the meticulous selection of materials, innovative construction techniques, and a relentless commitment to quality.
materials to enhance performance
The materials used in our Legacy Designs are handpicked for their superior quality and performance. From the robust tropical hardwoods to the advanced coatings and premium post-caps, every component is chosen to ensure that your structure not only meets but exceeds expectations.
High-Density Pile wraps
To further enhance the longevity in harsh saltwater environments we utilize high-density pile wraps for protection.
stainless steel fittings
