Not only do we provide poles for utility services…
We also provide poles for Camera Towers, Wi-Fi Towers, Wi-Fi Antennas, and Cell Booster Poles. These structures can be built using steel, concrete, or wood. However, wood poles have many more benefits.
Installation of wood poles is much faster than steel or concrete. Installation costs are much higher with steel and concrete. Steel and concrete poles require more components i.e. bolts, wires, etc., thus requiring more maintenance. The initial cost of wood poles is significantly less. Life expectancy of all is until obsolescence.
