Fire Retardant Application: No
Wood Type: Pine

Thatch Layers: One
Rope Kit: No

Main pole Length:
-If installing a palapa into the ground using cement, choose the 12' long main pole.
-If installing a palapa into a BBQ island or a palapa stand, choose the 10' long main pole.
-16' and 18' diameter palapas are much heavier and require longer main poles which
need extra support.
-Attaching longer main poles with cement is a must.

standard depth of installation when using concrete to anchor your palapa.

Pole length does not affect the base price of the palapa.

Fire Retardant Pricing:
Palapa Structures treats each piece of thatch, front and back, according to the
manufacturers' specifications. A Certificate of Fire Retardantcy will be issued, if
requested, to customers which may be presented to inspectors when required.

Wood Selection:
Pine is a tough, strong, maintenance-free building material used in landscape
construction for its natural appearance and adaptability to a variety of architectural styles.
It is used in many outdoor applications such as, framing, paneling, corral poles, utility poles, and railroad ties.

Cedar is known for it's decay-resistance. The wood is used for purposes requiring resistance to weather, such as roof shingles. Cedar wood also naturally repels insects.

10'x19' Two Pole Tahiti Palapa ..........................
$847.99

Wood Treatment:
Treating lumber provides long-term resistance to organisms that cause deterioration.
It extends the productive life of lumber by five to ten times. Wood that is exposed to
moisture or soil for sustained periods of time will become weakened by various types of
fungi, bacteria or insects. Both the light and dark stains provide the same amount of
protection for the wood. The only difference is the cost of the dark coloring.

Product ................................................... Additional Cost of Wood Preservative
8'x15' Two Pole Tahiti Palapa ......................... $122.99(Light) .............. $185.99(Dark)
10'x19' Two Pole Tahiti Palapa .......................
$177.99(Light) .............. $250.99(Dark)

Trim Options:
Because of its impressive resistance to decay, redwood was extensively used for railroad
ties and trestles throughout California. Redwood burls are used in the production of table
tops, veneers, and turned goods. The redwood pieces we use are definitely not the size
or weight of railroad ties!

Our redwood pieces are 1 ½" wide x ¼" thick and weigh less than 1 pound each. Although
they're small in size, they sill resist decay. The redwood trim comes standard on all Tahiti
Palapas up to 14' in diameter.

Pine trim is custom made and helps make the installation of a palapa easier. Whereas
the redwood trim rests on top of each rafter, the pine trim is wedged between each rafter,
helping to space them correctly.

Product ...................................................... Additional Cost of Pine Trim
8'x15' Two Pole Tahiti Palapa ............................ $N/A
10'x19' Two Pole Tahiti Palapa ..........................

10'x19' Two Pole Tahiti Palapa ................ +/- $907.00(Per Layer)

Twisted Sisal Rope We use twisted sisal rope for all of our rope accessories. Twisted sisal rope has proved it's durability over many years by being the rope of choice for many outdoor and indoor applications. Some of the benefits of using this rope are that it resists sunlight, is made of natural fiber, and is biodegradable.
