Browse Forums Renovation + Home Improvement Re: Cladding suggestions 2Nov 10, 2017 9:35 pm HI, We are looking at renovating the exterior of our home. We are considering weatherboard a bit of painted brick (all in same colour), but also considering a mix of weatherboard and vertical cladding (like Scyon axon). We would like to keep the roof as tile and just have it painted. The problem we have is that there are no safeet on the side of the house, which means we can't do weatherboard/cladding that require a stud because they'll protrude out further than the roof. Do you think we should just paint the brick on the side? Or does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks!
