Weatherboarding

We install a range of advanced cladding products which provide a low-maintenance, rot-free alternative to traditional timber weatherboarding. Manufactured from engineered fibre cement, these innovative products provide a highly durable alternative to PVCu cladding. Available in an extensive range of colours and textures, they offer you the freedom and flexibility to incorporate a single or multiple colour into your project. Whether used to clad your home in its entirety, or in combination with traditional building materials such as stone, wood and brick, it is possible to create truly stunning facades. From traditional to sleek ultra-modern designs, when it comes to creativity and possibilities, the sky’s the limit.

We offer two brands of fibre cement weatherboarding – James Hardie and Marley Eternit. Both brands products share the following features:

  • Manufactured from engineered fibre cement
  • Low-maintenance – no routine maintenance required. Simply clean once a year with soapy water and rinse to maintain its beautiful finish
  • Highly durable – the advanced cement-based formulation stands up to weather and time, with a typical service life of 50 years
  • Rot, vermin and insect resistant
  • Unaffected by rain and hail damage
  • Fire resistant – Class 0 fire performance and classified to A2-s1, d0 in accordance with BS EN 13501-1:2002, which means that it has a limited combustibility and produces negligible smoke in fires, as a result, there is no risk that the fibre cement will ignite and spread flames through the building or to an adjacent building
  • Environmentally friendly – fibre cement is a non-hazardous, non-toxic material. The pre-applied acrylic colour and exceptional durability reduce the use of new materials, paints and clean-up chemicals during installation and over the buildings life
