I seriously doubt RR ties still use creosote, and the new power pole
just installed doesnt have the tell tail creosote appearance either

I have had these Railroad ties that leach Creosole for 38 years. I want to sell the house and the leaching log is close to my front door and the buyers will notice it as they walk on the walk way. Also, they will track the creosole into my house & get it on the wood floor & carpets.
Do you suggest that I cover it with a light coat of concrete to seal it. there are bricks on either of the long sides. My handyman suggested that he could use outdoor paint on the concrete to look just like the bricks and cement on the walkway. do you think that will work?
