facade with fiber cement clading

Looking for a different material to renovate the exterior walls of your house? Don't want to resort to traditional plaster or wooden cladding, like everyone else? The Solution: Fibre cement cladding can help create the home of your dreams.

When it comes to house renovation, you may have different ideas to your neighbours. You find brick cladding rather conventional, and plaster a maintenance nightmare. Wooden cladding looks great but tends to age quickly. So what’s the answer? To put your own stamp on your home with original and unique exterior walls that are also durable, fibre-cement planks (or panels) could be the solution for at least 4 reasons:

2. Two different installation styles

Cedral planks can be installed in 2 different ways to achieve a completely different look.

> Shiplap installation (Cedral Lap) is the traditional method reminiscent of the wainscoting of farms in the Jura mountains.

Original exterior walls with Cedral

> Tongue and groove flush installation (Cedral Click) for a more modern finish and a sleeker look. The boards interlock with a simple “click”.

Of course, you can bring in a Cedral Select certified professional to install your Cedral cladding. But a competent do-it-yourself handyman is perfectly capable of installing the fibre-cement cladding on their own.

3. Horizontal or vertical

In most cases, the cladding is installed horizontally. But nothing prevents you from installing the boards vertically. It's becoming quite a trend! Vertical planks add a contemporary touch to your house wall.

4. Available in 21 colours

No need to paint fibre-cement planks: they are already coated with several layers of paint. Their colour will never fade through exposure to the sun or bad weather! And you can easily clean them with water without fear of discoloration.

Cedral planks are available in 21 colours ranging from immaculate white to black, grey, beige, brown, or more daring colours such as olive green or Scandinavian red. We can help you to choose the right colour for your exterior wall.

To finish off

With 21 colours to match or mix to your heart’s content, 2 finishes (textured or smooth), 2 systems (lap or click), and 2 types of installation (horizontal or vertical); Cedral exterior cladding is extremely versatile. Dreaming of an original exterior wall cladding? Then you’ve come to the right place. What’s more, Cedral cladding has one last notable advantage: it is low maintenance!
