Cladding can add new life to a home and can also provide weatherproof insulation and soundproofing. Many finishes are available from render-like finishes to imitation brick, timber panelling, vinyl, aluminum, zincalume, and colorbond steel. Some types of cladding come ready finished and do not require painting and can add significantly to the value of your home.

When choosing a suitable cladding, cost is not the only factor to consider. Maintenance, longevity and environmental issues are all factors which should be taken into account.

Check with local councils about regulations that may apply regarding cladding and whether you need to obtain permission for the work you are considering undertaking.
