Thinking about timber cladding, but not the upkeep that comes with it?
This carousel breaks down the practical differences between timber and Hardie Plank (fibre cement) so you can make a sensible choice for your home.
Why many homeowners choose Hardie Plank:
• It won’t rot, warp or swell like timber can
• Fire tested: A2 façade rating (EN 13501-1) – in plain English, it’s classed as limited combustibility
• Plenty of design choice: 21 colours, 2 textures, fitted horizontal or vertical
• It’s low maintenance, so you’re not stuck sanding and staining every few years
And just as important as the boards themselves is how they’re fitted. Before we start, we check your wall condition, set the battens correctly, and keep the right ventilation gaps so the system can perform as it should.
If you’re in Kent (or across the South East) and want honest advice on whether Hardie Plank is right for your property, we’re happy to help.
