Cladding
The purpose of cladding is to protect a building's structure from natural elements like wind and rain but it can have other benefits, such as insulation, noise control and it can boost the aesthetic appeal of a building.
Pros of cladding:
Low maintenance: Cladding is extremely low maintenance due to its durability and easy cleaning features.
Aesthetic value: One of the most common reasons that our clients choose to use exterior cladding on their building is the aesthetically-pleasing appearance it will add to their property. It can give a property instant kerb appeal. Exterior cladding comes in a variety of different styles and colours for you to choose from.
Internal insulation: External cladding can help to improve the thermal insulation of a property.
Protection and safeguarding of the structure: External cladding is a great addition to your property as it acts as an extra layer of protection against weathering and corrosion.
Variety of uses: Cladding is an adaptable product that can be used in a variety of situations on roofs or walls. It can be used when constructing a new building, as an integral part of the new design. It can also be used when renovating or extending your current property. You may be adding a new extension, where cladding can be fitted to give an attractive and hard-wearing finish, or you may already have cladding that needs replacing.

Truro Overclad
In some cases overcladding is the most suitable way to revitalise an existing building. It is particularly useful when dealing with buildings made of asbestos as it contains the harmful material while being cost-effective, aesthetically pleasing and watertight.
A good example of how we can overclad a buidling is this project. Completed in 2021 in Truro this building was given a new lease of life with a stylish overclad and a new seamless aluminium guttering system
