Weatherboard Repair v. Cladding Upgrade (VIC)
Page 1 of 1
Initially, we just wanted to repaint and repair affected panels. But read that this could be a costly exercise in itself.
So now we're considering a complete upgrade away from timber to a more durable material for the long-term.
Anyone with tips to share?
• Is repainting/repair or upgrade more cost-effective in the long-run?
• How long and disruptive would replacement works be?
• Another consideration is that we'd prefer lightweight cladding, since the 2nd storey extension was built on an old house.
• Any recommendations for good trades in VIC, and places where we can view a wide range of materials? Am I missing any options:
-- colorbond steel
-- fibre cement
-- vinyl
Much thanks!

they offer lightweight aluminium cladding panels in a variety of applications and colours including timber look.
It lasts longer than timber and is easy to install too.

Does it wipe off? Could be because of dry dirty drips.
