The Freefoam Weatherboard Cladding in Slate Grey is an ideal solution for homeowners and professional contractors seeking a low-maintenance, modern aesthetic for exterior wall protection. This 170mm wide board provides a durable, weather-resistant finish that mimics the appearance of traditional timber while eliminating the need for regular painting or treatment, though it does require careful handling to avoid surface scratches during the installation process.

The cladding is designed with a durable, pre-finished surface and does not require painting. Painting is not recommended as it may affect the product warranty.
You will need a fine-toothed saw, a spirit level, a measuring tape, and high-quality stainless steel nails or screws.
Yes, the PVC material is inherently resistant to salt spray and corrosive coastal environments, making it an excellent choice for seaside properties.
Measure the total square meter area of your wall and divide by the effective coverage area per board, adding approximately 10% for cutting waste.
Yes, it is standard practice to install a breathable membrane between the wall structure and the battens to prevent moisture entrapment.
Ensure that thermal expansion allowances were calculated correctly during installation based on temperature fluctuations.
Use a specialized PVC restorer or a gentle non-abrasive cleaner to buff out minor surface marks.
Check that the supporting battens are perfectly level and that the fasteners are not over-tightened, allowing for natural material movement.
For installation, ensure the sub-frame consists of pressure-treated timber battens spaced at recommended intervals to provide a secure fixing point. Always use stainless steel fixings to prevent corrosion. When cutting the boards, use a fine-toothed saw to achieve a clean edge. For care, simply wash the cladding annually with a soft cloth and warm soapy water to remove accumulated grime or dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or solvent-based chemicals, as these can damage the finish of the PVC surface.
