Trim Board Class Action

Property owners who had their home or business outfitted with TrimBoard and experienced premature failure of the composite wood trim product may have legal recourse in the form of a Trim Board class action lawsuit. Reportedly, TrimBoard, also sold under the names Pro Trim and Choice Trim, is unsuitable for exterior use because it can absorb moisture under normal conditions, potentially leading to a number of problems including decay and rotting. Because the manufacturer allegedly designed and sold defective exterior composite wood trim, property owners who experienced problems with this wood trim may be able to participate in a Trim Board class action to seek compensation for damages.

If you experienced problems with TrimBoard, you may have legal recourse to seek financial compensation. Complete our no cost, no risk case review form with the details of your wood trim problems to find out if you can participate in a Trim Board class action lawsuit.

LP ABTCO TrimBoard: Fiberboard Problems

Marketed as "more durable" and "easier to use" than other trim products, TrimBoard is reportedly unsuitable for exterior use as it tends to absorb moisture, which can compromise the fiberboard's stability, longevity and outward appearance. This tendency to absorb moisture can also cause a number of TrimBoard problems, including:

• Rotting
• Decay
• Swelling

These TrimBoard problems, in turn, can lead to the development of fungi, mildew, mold and insect infestation. If you experienced these or other problems with your Trimboard, complete our free case review form today.
