Cladding can be used to make any outdoor area appear more rustic, or more modern – whichever the case may be. Cladding is generally applied to sheds and wooden outbuildings/garages to help them blend in with their surroundings and to give them some extra protection from the weather as well. If you have cladding on your home, you can match the cladding of your external buildings to that on your home so you can ensure you have continuity throughout.
There are various styles of cladding you can choose, including waney edge and feather edge. They are installed similarly – unless you opt for a tongue and groove option where the cladding will slot together to form a neater appearance on completion. The look you choose is entirely up to you, depending on what you prefer for your home. You can choose different types of timber, like oak, cedar, redwood, spruce and larch.
