What materials does RS Components GA use?

RS Components GA primarily uses Western Red Cedar and PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). Cedar is favored for its natural rot resistance, insect resistance, and weather durability. PVC is used for applications requiring low maintenance and high moisture resistance, particularly for coastal environments.

Why is Western Red Cedar used for architectural components?

Western Red Cedar is used because of its natural resistance to rot, decay, and insects. It is also weather resistant, lightweight, easy to work with, and has a naturally beautiful grain, making it ideal for both decorative and structural exterior architectural components.

What is the difference between a bracket and a corbel?

Both brackets and corbels are projecting architectural supports, but they differ slightly. A bracket is typically an L-shaped element projecting from a wall to support weight or add decoration, commonly found on porches, gables, and soffits. A corbel is a stepped or curved projecting block, often more ornate, used to support countertops, shelves, mantels, or overhangs. Both are available in cedar at RS Components GA.

What are gable trusses used for?

Cedar Gable Trusses are triangular architectural elements placed under the sloping roof at the gable end of a house. They serve as decorative accents that add visual interest to the front or end of a home, and they can also provide structural support for the roof. Cedar is chosen for its rot, insect, and weather resistance.

What are gable vents and why are they important?

Gable vents are triangular or rectangular vents installed on the gable ends of a house near the roof peak. They are a critical part of attic ventilation, helping to regulate temperature and moisture. They typically work in pairs to create cross-ventilation — one vent allows hot air to escape while the other draws in cooler fresh air.

What types of columns does RS Components GA offer?

RS Components GA offers three types of columns: Coastal Columns (designed for high-humidity and coastal environments, available in PVC), Column Wraps (used to encase existing structural posts for a finished appearance), and Craftsman Style Columns (featuring a tapered profile suited for bungalow and craftsman-style homes).

What is a cupola and what is it used for?

A cupola is a small dome-like structure or tower placed on top of a roof or building. Cupolas serve both decorative and ventilation purposes. RS Components GA crafts cupolas from cedar for natural weather resistance and aesthetic appeal, suitable for homes, barns, and garages.

Can RS Components GA products be painted or stained?

Yes. Both cedar and PVC products from RS Components GA can be painted. Cedar products can also be stained to enhance or preserve their natural wood grain appearance. PVC products accept paint but are not typically stained.

Are PVC columns better than wood columns for coastal areas?

PVC columns are generally recommended for coastal areas because they are highly resistant to moisture, humidity, salt air, and rot — conditions that can accelerate the decay of wood. RS Components GA offers Coastal Columns in PVC specifically designed for these environments.

Columns - RS Components GA

A column is a vertical, load-bearing structural element, often a rounded shaft with a capital and a base, designed to support a structure above. It can also be non-structural and purely decorative.

A column wrap is a decorative or protective covering that is installed around the exterior of a building column, typically made of materials like PVC, fiberglass, or wood, to enhance its appearance or shield it from the elements.

RS Components GA offers Coastal Columns (PVC for high-moisture environments), Column Wraps (for encasing existing posts), and Craftsman Style Columns (tapered profiles for bungalow and craftsman homes). All available in cedar, PVC, or custom specifications.
