Architectural Wall Cladding

Cladding is usually associated with commercial buildings, and not many homeowners are familiar with this option. Here are some compelling reasons why metal cladding may be a good choice for your West Coast home: 1. Protection. Metal cladding panels shields the home from the elements - changes in temperature, wind, water absorption and sunlight, and increases the seismic stability of the structure. 2. Design Aesthetics. Metal cladding can dramatically change the overall look of a house, making it more appealing and unique, adding value to the property. Cladding is available in a variety of colors, textures and panel sizes. 3. Low Maintenance – metal cladding requires very little maintenance or repair work. It can simply be cleaned, if needed, to retain its good aesthetics. 4. It does not absorb moisture safeguarding your home from mold and mildew 5. Non-Combustible – The International Building Code recognizes metal building materials as non-combustible. 6. Environmentally Friendly – Metal cladding panels are usually made from recycled materials, and can be recycled after, making them environmentally-friendly. 7. Cost effective. The points above make metal cladding a cost-effective, although not inexpensive alternative. Disadvantage : it is prone to dents and scratches. Softer types of metal like aluminum has the tendency to dent when a hard object, such a large branch, hits its surface. Still have any questions or for a free estimate, please call us !
