Box beams are hollow on purpose. A box beam is built from several pieces of wood joined around an open core to look like one massive solid timber, and that hollow core is the entire reason the look works in a real Colorado living room or great room.

Hidden Water Leaks: What Colorado Homebuyers Should Know

The water leaks that cost Colorado buyers the most are the ones a standard home inspection does not check: the sewer line running under the yard, a slab leak under the foundation, and pipe corrosion inside a wall.
