I am about to put 4 columns for a water tower on their foundation but being old seasoned timber (300mm x 300mm & rough) it is not impregnated so I need to coat it with something that will keep it rot-free for many years.
I gather there is tar paint but this may be biodegradable so may not last long ?? or could I use the tar used by flat roofers, perhaps.
Does anyone have any knowledge / experience that could help me.
