For those looking to elevate their home in a way that’s unique and timeless, mock Tudor beams are the answer. With a huge amount of historical significance, a contrasting palette and whimsical features, Tudor architecture is great for home inspiration.
Traditional Design
One of the most prominent features of Tudor style homes is the roof. Pointing upwards in a triangular shape is a very unique feature, found on a lot of traditional architecture. Originally, these steeply pitched roofs were used to combat the wet English weather, but are now a stylish feature.
Mock Tudor beams are essential for the full Tudor style. The harsh contrast between the dark Tudor beams against a pale backdrop adds original style which has been loved for generations. For a more authentic look, exposed brickwork (both inside and outside) works well.
Fairytale Features
Modern architecture is very minimalistic, which can leave your home with no personality, originality or style. Tudor style homes, in contrast, have often been described as similar to the cottages you would find in a fairytale book. The curves, asymmetrical rooflines and exposed beams are completely parallel to today’s architecture but bring a classic and sophisticated style to modern neighbourhoods.
Durable Materials
Being a natural material, timber is susceptible to damage in bad weather. Consequently, this causes timber to swell, crack, bend and shrink in harsh conditions. Therefore, despite being the go-to construction material for many years, at MW Roofline we use a more modern alternative.
Our mock Tudor beams are manufactured from polyurethane boards. This is a long lasting and hard wearing material, which can survive climate changes. Inside polyurethane are microscopic chains of resin molecules which bond tightly to dry. This makes them resistant to water, abrasion and solvents.
Our polyurethane boards are crafted to look identical to real timber, for an authentic aesthetic. This makes them perfect for wooden Tudor board replacements.
You can also choose from a selection of colours, including black ash, mahogany, rosewood and light oak to suit your unique style.
Timeless Style
After living through generations of various home trends, the Tudor style is one of few that has remained. Timeless style centres around what is versatile to work with and can suit a variety of tastes. Because they are made with natural colours, mock Tudor beams blend seamlessly with the rest of your home, whilst remaining a prominent feature. Therefore, investing in Tudor boards will provide you with an everlasting design that will never go out of fashion.
