What are the Best Uses for Marine Plywood?
Marine grade plywood is made with a waterproof binder, making it an excellent choice for construction items that will be in constant contact with water. But, since marine plywood is thicker and held in place with a specially formulated adhesive, it costs more than typical plywood. To help you make smart investments that balance quality and price, we highlight a few projects that require marine plywood to guarantee an excellent finished product.
1. Boats
Since boats spend most of their lives underwater, marine plywood is a great choice for boat building. When properly sealed, marine plywood is completely waterproof and its durability protects against damage and leakage. In addition, it is flexible, which facilitates work during the construction of the hull or other curved areas.
2. Docks
Marine plywood is a low maintenance choice for docks. Although you can use another waterproof treated wood, you will need to sand and treat the wood every year to maintain its integrity. Marine plywood, on the other hand, will last for years without treatment while avoiding rot and warping.
3. Bathrooms
As the wettest room in the house, your bathroom will grow rotting, warping and mold without the right wood. Whether there is a sink or overflow toilet or simply a regular humidity of the shower, the use of marine grade plywood ensures that you will not need to replace your flooring, siding or your backsplash anytime soon.
4. Kitchens
After the bathroom, the kitchen is the wettest of all the rooms in your house. Steam and cooking water can damage poorer quality wood over time. Choosing marine plywood for your floor, backsplash or cupboards can keep your kitchen new, while avoiding the effects of constant humidity.
