Durability Of Outdoor Faux Wood Beams

Outdoor faux wood beams come with many advantages over solid wood, especially how well they withstand exterior elements.

  • Solid outdoor wood beams may warp over time due to unregulated water absorption and temperature changes. Thanks to the tempered polyurethane interior of faux wood beams, these factors will do little to affect your investment.
  • Faux wood beams are not susceptible to rot, unlike solid wood which can chip, split, and otherwise break apart in a few short years.
  • Solid wood beams have a long history of attracting wood-eating pests, including carpenter ants, termites, carpenter bees, powderpost beetles, and other various insects. Faux wood beams do not provide a food source, so they are immune to such infestation.
  • Faux wood beams are virtually maintenance-free even in outdoor locations, requiring little more than routine washing with a mild detergent.
