What is Timber Cladding?

Timber cladding is a method that is utilised to clad buildings or establishments to create a more beautiful finish. Technically, it is meant to protect the walls against moisture and the penetration of air.

It is considered as an environmentally friendly method and it is becoming popular among architects and builders.

Timber cladding can be used on commercial and domestic properties to enhance the aesthetics of the building while providing protection too. It is an increasingly popular form of cladding as it is economical and provides good insulation.

Where is Timber Cladding Used?

Timber cladding is effective for both heat and sound insulation, trapping in heat and ensuring sound does not escape. Better at retaining heat than concrete, steel, and aluminium, timber cladding is both functionally and aesthetically ideal for buildings.

Although cladding has an important practical role, for many homeowners, as it will impact the final appearance of their house.

Timber Cladding Installation

Normal practice is to install timber cladding using ‘face fixed’ nails or screws – fixing the cladding to the batons behind, through the front face of the timber cladding.

Timber Cladding Longevity

You can expect quality timber cladding to last anywhere between 40-60 years.
