Cladding

What are the different types of cladding?

Guaranteed to improve the appearance of your home, whilst safeguarding the structure and simultaneously boosting the property’s thermal value, PVC exterior wall cladding is perfect for refreshing tired property exteriors – especially for homeowners restricted by budget.

From Lowestoft to Felixstowe and Clacton-on-Sea to Southend, superior composite coastline cladding is specially developed to defend homes against the harshest coastal conditions, e.g., extreme sunlight, forceful winds, saltwater corrosion, and harmful moisture-laden air.

Both PVC and composite cladding are also immune to the typical problems associated with natural timber cladding, eliminating issues such as cracking, warping, rotting, and pest infestation. Quality cladding products (like ours!) will notably increase your home’s kerb appeal whilst keeping your home warm, cosy, and protected from the elements for longer. Unmatched style and improved thermal efficiency go hand in hand with our coastline external cladding solutions.

Is composite cladding expensive?

Composite cladding is at the top of the scale when it comes to quality and performance, making it slightly more expensive than versatile PVC cladding and high-maintenance timber cladding. That said, composite cladding is well worth the initial investment, delivering enduring protection and striking exteriors for homes along the coast.
