Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can these be used as wall cladding?

No, these boards are specifically designed for eaves and soffit use and are not rated for external wall cladding.

Are these boards structural?

No, they are non-load-bearing and must be supported by a solid timber sub-frame.

What is the length of each board?

Each individual board is 5 meters in length.

Do I need special tools to cut the uPVC?

A standard fine-toothed hand saw or a circular saw with a blade suitable for plastic is sufficient.

How do I maintain the woodgrain effect?

Wipe with a damp, soft cloth using mild soapy water; avoid solvents or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.

How many boards are in a pack?

This product is supplied as a pack of 4 boards.

Troubleshooting

Board is bowing after installation

Ensure the underlying timber joists or framing are at the recommended 600mm centers and that fixings are not overtightened.

Difficulty in sliding tongue into groove

Check for debris in the groove and ensure the board is perfectly square; use a rubber mallet to gently tap the edge if necessary.

Appearance of surface scratching

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers; clean only with soap and water to preserve the woodgrain finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Low maintenance requirement compared to wood
  • Lightweight hollow structure simplifies installation
  • Attractive, realistic woodgrain aesthetic
  • 10-year manufacturer's guarantee for peace of mind
  • Easy to cut and fit using standard tools

Cons

  • Not suitable for load-bearing use
  • Should not be used for external cladding applications
  • Requires specific framing support due to hollow design

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires basic carpentry tools, including a fine-toothed saw for cutting boards to size and appropriate fixing nails or screws. Boards should be fixed into a timber sub-frame at maximum 600mm centers to ensure structural stability. When cutting, always use a blade intended for plastic to avoid splintering the woodgrain finish. To maintain the appearance, simply clean the surface periodically with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent to remove atmospheric dirt or debris.
