Timber cladding or fibre cement cladding, whatever you choose, these two variants are exceptional choices for property owners looking to add value to their commercial as well as residential buildings.

One of the things that make timber cladding and fibre cement cladding similar is the ease of installation.

These two cladding options are easy to install and comes in a variety of options. With that said, let’s discuss the benefits of the two best cladding options in detail.

Fibre Cement Cladding

Fibre cement cladding is an ideal option for property owners looking for versatility. They not only provide strength and durability but also are maintenance-free and come in different colour options. Fibre cement cladding is the preferred choice of contractors and builders for this reason.

The following are the major benefits of renovating your property with fibre cement cladding.

  1. Long Lifespan

One of the biggest reasons why you should renovate your property with fibre cement cladding is that it offers longevity.

Fibre cement is a mixture of wood fibre, cement, and other additives that are not only sustainable components but also the ones that can easily withstand insects, wear and tear, and weather, among other harmful entities, compared to other cladding materials.

Although the upfront cost of fibre cement cladding is higher compare to timber, aluminium or vinyl, fibre cement cladding can offer up to 50 or more years of longevity.

  1. Versatility

When we talk about fibre cement cladding, it comes in a plethora of designs and shapes, offering a striking beauty just in the material makeup alone.

Fibre cement cladding is a composite of advanced manufacturing methods with natural looks. That means, with fibre cement cladding, the options for curb appeal aesthetics are magnanimous.

For example, when renovating your house or commercial space, you can choose fibre cement cladding that suits the overall décor and texture of the house.

That is you can choose from wood-textured design to stone-textured design and more. The possibilities are endless.

  1. Resistant to Heat, Weather, Rotting, and Warping

The primary reason why fibre cement cladding is replacing other types of cladding is that it is resistant to all major types of external threats that include the weather, heat, and insects. This is a great way to safeguard your home and your loved ones.

The material is composed in a way that it doesn’t soak water or absorbs moisture, thus, eliminating the possibilities of warping and rotting.

On the other hand, the material wards off insects like termites from damaging the cladding. The biggest benefit is that it is resistant to fire as well.

  1. Minimal Maintenance Required

People are now inclining more towards fibre cement cladding and the reason is it is low maintenance. You don’t have to repaint it every year and you don’t have to pressure wash it regularly to keep the cladding up and shining.

According to builders and contractors, unlike vinyl and aluminium cladding that easily catch up dust and dirt as well as the paint easily gets faded, fibre cement cladding can last for years without maintenance.

You may have to get it repainted and pressure washed after 10 years, but that’s too long. This not only saves money but also makes your property well-maintained.

Timber Cladding

Now that you have understood the advantages of fibre cement cladding, let’s jump right into timber cladding and discuss its benefits.

Timber cladding, unlike other cladding materials like vinyl and aluminium, is all-natural wood. It is an excellent way to protect your property from elements like bad weather and other anomalies. The below-mentioned are benefits of renovating your property with timber cladding.

  1. Ease of Installation

Timber is relatively lightweight in nature compared to most cladding materials, which makes it easy to install. If you are considering installing timber cladding all by yourself, you can do it without any help.

Home renovation projects with timber cladding are faster to complete. This not only drives down the construction costs but also ensures that the claddings are installed securely without any hassle.

Since timber comes in different grades, you can choose the one that suits your property. However, we recommend that you consult with an experienced contractor before choosing timber cladding.

The contractor might be able to recommend you the best timber cladding after inspecting your property.

  1. Durability

Timber cladding, like fibre cement cladding, is highly durable and can last for several years. However, it may require proper maintenance.

The best part about timber cladding is that timber has a high impact resistance that reduces the damage to your property. Chips and scratches on timber cladding are not as apparent as they are on aluminium or vinyl cladding.

With special treatments, your timber cladding can last for decades, even during a fire, rain, and other anomalies. Timber species like fir and red cedar are known to last longer than other types of wood.

  1. Versatile

Like fibre cement cladding, timber cladding is versatile to an extent that it has many home designs. The wood can be trimmed down to any size and due to its availability in different patterns, timber cladding is used in numerous architectural designs, irrespective of the project type or scale.

Timber cladding is known for its beautiful natural patterns that add aesthetics to any property, whether residential or commercial.

The best part, you can paint or stain the timber cladding based on your design requirements, or allow the wood to go through the natural process of weathering to achieve its attractive and unique wood colour.

  1. Environmentally Friendly

The main reason why people opt for timber cladding is that it is a naturally renewable resource. This means little to no non-renewable sources are used to process the wood as compared to other cladding materials.

Timber is 100% recyclable, which means it can be reused again for the same purpose or for different purposes.

Final Words

Timber and fibre cement cladding are two popular cladding materials preferred by people. This is because these materials provide both rustic as well as contemporary touch the building.
