Protecting Your Home the Natural Way

Pride of ownership is a quality Warren Moyer, 55, and his family hold near and dear to their hearts. They love it when people who drive by their three-story

log home in Grass Valley, Calif., stop to ask questions about it; and can't wait until friends and family arrive for 18-year-old Megan's graduation party.

"It's hard to describe the reactions when people see our house,"
said Moyer.

"They are in awe, not only of the architecture, but of all the woodwork.

It's a rather large home, between 5500 and 5600 square feet.

Almost all of the walls, both inside and out are wood."

Moyer, who is an architectural designer, says the house was intended to be a model.

"I liked it so much, I decided to move in."

The home, built in 1988, has four bedrooms and five baths.

"For dramatic effect, I designed several split level situations.

Both the family and living rooms are sunken,"
Moyer says.

There are hardwood floors throughout, hardwood cabinets and Corian countertops in the kitchen, and a natural stone fireplace.

Moyer says today, "the house looks like a million bucks."
He wasn't so sure it would turn out that way during the construction process.

"A fierce rain storm created huge problems. I had partially covered the beams before the rain came, but didn't have it done. As the rain soaked in, the nails, brackets and other hardware began to bleed.

Black stains ran down all the walls."

Moyer knew he had to get a sealer on the wood as soon as possible to stop the damage from getting any worse.

He had researched 30 different stains before hearing about the one manufactured by Weather-Bos.

He decided to give it a try because he knew it was environmentally friendly.

Moyer hired a contractor to apply the stain to his home back in 1988, and says he was amazed with the results.

"They first sanded away all the black markings, and then applied the stain.

Once it was on, I didn't have any more problems.

I consider the product miraculous,"
said Moyer.

"We strongly recommend that any unprotected wood not be allowed to weather outdoors for more than a maximum of two weeks before it is protected with some finish that will prevent photo-degradation and water damage,"
said Dr. William Faist, a research chemist for the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Moyer says he knew that when he started on the project, but didn't have time to choose a stain in the early days, and was caught off guard when the rains came.

"Weather-Bos was a real life saver,"
said Moyer.

Weather-Bos International has been producing environmentally safe, nontoxic stains, finishes, preservatives, paints and coatings for more than 35 years.

"When you cut a healthy tree down, it immediately starts to die, and every day it lies there, it decays a little more because it has lost its

natural defenses,"
said company President Gary Wynn.

The products, which are all natural, give wood the defenses it needs to stop the weathering process. "Its natural oils and resins penetrate and fill the open wood cells, then upon drying, adhere to the wood and form an inseparable bond that will not wash out or evaporate.

Weather-Bos products don't just adhere to wood.

They actually penetrate it, creating a bond that's nearly impossible to release after it dries,"
Wynn says.

"Once the product goes on, it's pretty low maintenance,"
Moyer says.

He reapplied the stain to the whole house in 1992 and again in 1996.

Since then, all he has done is a little touch up.

"I'd like to put another coat on early this summer before my daughter Megan's graduation from high school in June.

We'll be having a lot of people over and I'd really like the house to shine,"
said Moyer.
