Spring Cleaning of Your Mock Tudor Boards  

Mock Tudor boards are a classic and low-maintenance decorative feature that add historical charm to a property. Whilst they are considerably easier to maintain than wooden boards, they still require maintenance to keep them in good condition. Including your faux Tudor boards in your yearly spring clean ensures that your boards are in excellent condition for the year ahead, as well as offering the opportunity to identify any damage and arrange the necessary repairs.  

Here is our guide to spring cleaning your mock Tudor boards.  

Paintwork  

Mock Tudor beams are a hard-wearing and durable alternative to real wood planks, particularly when it comes to cleaning your tudor boards after winter. Natural wooden planks are susceptible to weather damage, including rot and damp, whereas our polyurethane Tudor beams are designed to be weather resistant.  

Checking the integrity of your boards’ paintwork will allow you to repaint the boards if necessary, as well as deciding whether more varnish or even a new paint colour would benefit the exterior image of your home.  

Weather Resistance 

Natural wood absorbs water during rainfall and expands, before shrinking again when the sun reappears during warmer weather. This process eventually leads to wooden panels cracking and becoming damaged, resulting in costly repairs.  

Faux wood boards are designed for long-lasting results and minimal wear and tear. Inspecting your faux wood boards for weather damage should be included in your spring cleaning, and any unexpected damages should be minimal.  

Tudor Board Replacements 

If you have old, wooden Tudor boards, or mock Tudor beams that you have had for over 15 years, then repairs and replacements may be necessary. Replacing wooden boards with mock Tudor ones is a worthwhile and long-term investment, as they will last much longer and require less maintenance.
