Cladding

Larch Cladding

Our homegrown British larch is a sustainable timber and offers excellent value for money. This species is perfect for cladding as it is both tough and naturally durable. The high resin ratio in larch protects it from decay.

A good all-rounder, British Larch ranges from a warm yellow to a reddish-brown colour, weathering slowly to a silvery-grey. The timber has interesting grain patterns and knots are common but generally small. Our larch is a popular and affordable choice for both modern and older properties.

Sawn Cladding Profiles

Our native larch cladding is versatile enough to suit a range of different of projects. Sawn profiles have a classic, more rustic appearance and are ideal for barn conversions, rural properties and timber framed buildings.

Machined Cladding Profiles

We can also offer TGV cladding in Canadian larch. The interlocking edge creates a smooth appearance and a waterproof façade, which is ideal for garden structures, homes or commercial properties.
