        "text": "Maintenance for exterior window trim depends heavily on the material. Wood trim requires the most attention, including regular cleaning, scraping loose paint, sanding, priming, and repainting or re-staining every few years to prevent rot and deterioration. Vinyl and cellular PVC trims are much lower maintenance, typically only needing occasional cleaning with soap and water to remove dirt or mildew. Fiber cement also requires minimal care. Regular inspections of all trim types are important to catch and address any issues early, preventing more costly repairs.",
