  • Can I install cladding myself?

    Yes. If you’re an experienced DIYer with various construction skills, you may wish to install cladding yourself.

    However, if you have never tackled a project like installing cladding, it’s better to hire a professional cladding installer.

    A cladding installer will ensure that your cladding is properly insulated and professionally installed. They will also provide you with product and installation guarantees in case of any problems.

    To find out more about the cladding installation process have a read of our handy how to install cladding guide.

  • What is the best exterior cladding?

    Many people choose timber cladding as their preferred cladding material. Timber is versatile, environmentally friendly and when properly maintained has an excellent life expectancy.

    Another popular timber cladding material is Thermawood cladding - a pressure and heat treated softwood with excellent weather resistance properties.

    Some other popular cladding materials include:

    • Stone

    • Brick

    • Metal

    • uPVC

    • Fibre cement

    • Glass

    Have a read of our cladding ideas blog for some inspiration for your cladding installation project.

    Another more unusual cladding material is rubber. Often made from recycled plastic material, rubber cladding is becoming increasingly popular in the new-build and renovation markets.

  • What is the easiest cladding to install?

    Fibre cement boards are often cited as the easiest cladding type to install. They are installed using a simple featherboard technique that should be easy to accomplish for an experienced DIYer.

    uPVC cladding is also relatively simple and quick to install. Other materials such as timber and metal cladding will require a higher level of skill to install.

  • What cladding is illegal?

    Any cladding that does not meet fire safety standards is illegal. This includes all combustible materials.

    In particular, following the Grenfell Tower disaster, the government banned the installation of all metal composite materials (MCM) cladding panels with an unmodified polyethylene (PE) core on all new buildings.

  • What is the cost of cladding?

    The cost of cladding a house will vary greatly depending on the cladding material, size of the property and any access issues.

    On average, it costs around £8,000 to clad a standard two storey house. Have a read of our cladding cost guide to find out more.

  • Does cladding add value to a property?

    This depends. Although adding cladding to a property does not directly affect the property value, it can make it more desirable to potential homebuyers.

    Cladding a property can enhance its visual appearance and help to improve insulation and weather resistance.

    This can indirectly affect the value of a property.

  • Do you need planning permission to clad your house?

    Sometimes. In most cases you do not require planning permission to clad your house.

    If you live in a listed building or conservation area, however, you will definitely need planning permission to clad your house.

    For properties of particular historical significance, the cladding must be in keeping with the building’s character and will need the necessary permission before installation.

  • How long does cladding last?

    This will depend on the cladding material, the quality of the installation, and the level of maintenance.

    Timber, stone, metal, and fibre cement cladding can last upwards of 50 years when properly maintained.

    uPVC cladding usually lasts around 25 years but is the most cost-effective option.

  • Can you put cladding over brick?

    Yes. Any type of cladding can be installed over brick.

  • How long does it take to install cladding?

    This depends on the size of the cladding project and the material used.

    Cladding an average three bedroom semi-detached property will take an average of two days.
