Hello,

There is a combination of James Hardie (board & batten siding) and Nichiha Sierra Premium Shakes (http://www.nichiha.com/residential/detail/sierra-premium-shake)

I hope that helps!

Properly executed cladding should not cause any issues, but I have personally seen first hand that badly installed cladding literally destroyed a building structurally by creating a great environment for fungus to spread. Before making your decision you might want to go over this official guide on cladding: http://www.fema.gov/media-library-data/20130726-1707-25045-0913/chapter9.pdf It gives a lot of information on how cladding works, behaviour of water on cladding etc. I would personally never use cladding, but I have seen cladded buildings doing absolutely fine for 25+ years. Saying that they were in mild climates with no coastal winds or airborne salt. I'm not an expert on cladding or coastal properties. Insulation on an old house is always a good idea, as it really helps with cold spots and can greatly reduce fuel bills. With smooth render, you can also add additives to it to help inhibit salt, which would increase its lifespan in your area.

Problem with these 60s houses is the bricks are ghastly... very little work arounds to that other than external insulate and render. Claddding always poses an issue of longevity and fading of timber (looks good when installed and a cause of regret when it fades). We have recently used a weatherboard on deveopments in London and it looks great, is long lasting and available in a range of colours to suit everyones preference. https://www.marleyeternit.co.uk/Facades/Weatherboard/Cedral-Click.aspx

Hey Saml1992, We did get the bradstone rendered, we went for K-Rend all over, including covering the existing render on the extension - and we couldnt be happier with the finish. We also decided to combine it with cement board cladding and it all came up a treat. I just took this photo (apologies its a bit gloomy here) so you can compare it to what it used to look like! The render and cement board has been up for 14 months now. (Still not finished the front steps though!)

Hi. It does, ideally I don’t want to paint it. But im now trying to correct an error I’ve made as I thought c05 which I bought was ral 7038. But it doesn’t match the window 7038. So I’ve decided to change it to co6 (more green) as I think it’s a safer contrast!
