Louisiana Pacific and ABTCO Wood Trim Problems

Due to its reported tendency to absorb moisture, TrimBoard may not be suitable for exterior use, although it was marketed as such. If the wood trim product retains moisture, it can allegedly affect the product's aesthetic appearance, as well as its stability and longevity. In some cases, this may also lead to rotting, decay and swelling, which may give rise to a number of other problems including insect infestation and the development of fungi, mildew and mold. Home and business owners who are unsure as to whether their property was installed with this type of fiberboard can contact the contractor who installed the trim, which has a paper surface that looks smooth or embossed with a cedar-like texture.
