Wall Cladding Installation Fareham

Where the elevation to be clad faces a town-centre pavement, the scaffold in front of it may have to stand on that pavement. Where a director identifies at the survey that the scaffold will stand on the pavement, we apply to the council for the pavement licence in advance of the work.

Fareham’s town centre stands on medieval burgage plots.

Where a wall already carries cladding, the team removes every existing board and keeps none for reuse. Once the boards are off, the wall takes the membrane and battens in the same way as a wall that has never been clad. That job is a cladding replacement, and we clad the wall in full as a new installation. Replacing individual failed boards is the external cladding repair service and is not part of an installation.

Stubbington grew from a few cottages and farms across the twentieth century.

The new cladding stops at a line beneath the eaves. The team cuts the top row of boards to that line and closes the top edge with a trim. A fascia or soffit at the eaves is part of the roof, and work to either of them is a roof fascia repair.

The buildings of Titchfield village are small in scale, in styles that range from Tudor and Jacobean through Georgian and Victorian.

A director examines the masonry and any timber frame of each wall at the survey. Where a wall needs repair first, such as repointing, cracked brickwork or a decayed timber frame, the quote prices that work ahead of the cladding. The team completes it, including any carpentry the frame needs, before the membrane and battens are fixed.

River flooding and flash flooding both occur in Fareham.

On a semi-detached pair or a terrace, the cladding stops at the line between your house and the next, and the team closes that edge with a trim.

Fareham’s housing includes semi-detached and terraced houses, and its terraced rows include the cottages built for workers in Wallington’s brewing, tanning and pottery trades.

A director surveys each wall to be clad, measuring the elevation and assessing the wall behind its existing finish. We go through the board options with you at the property, including fibre cement cladding and uPVC wall cladding, and agree the board and its colour. The written, itemised quote is issued within 48 hours of that survey.

A director decides at the survey whether a tower scaffold or scaffolding serves each elevation. The method statement records each of those decisions, and it is agreed with you and signed before the team starts work.

The team fixes the breather membrane across each wall to be clad, then sets out the battens over it. Every batten is fixed through the membrane into the masonry or timber frame behind.

The team cuts each board to fit and fixes it to the manufacturer’s specification. Every corner and edge of the cladding is then finished with a trim.

A director inspects the finished cladding from the scaffold and from the ground. The team makes any minor adjustment the inspection identifies before leaving the site.

Yes. Cladding is fixed to the outside face of each wall, so the team works from the tower scaffold or scaffolding at that wall and not from inside the house. The team protects your driveway and planting around that access for the whole installation.

Some walls need repair before cladding, and a sound wall receives the battens in its current condition. A batten fixing carries the weight of the boards, so it can lose its hold in any part of the wall that is loose. Any repair is a separate item on your written quote, so you see that work and its price before you accept.

A little. The cladding brings the face of the wall forward, so each window sits deeper in its reveal. The team finishes every reveal with a trim cut to the window frame, closing the edge between the boards and the frame.

The choice is between a single elevation, an extension, a porch and the whole house. A director measures each wall you name at the survey, and the written quote itemises those walls.

The end cottage of a row in Wallington has an outside side wall, which may be chosen on its own.

One director. The same director surveys your walls, prepares the quote, agrees the access, oversees the team and inspects the finished cladding. Our own team carries out every stage of the installation, with no subcontracted labour.

Every project in our Fareham service area begins with a free site survey conducted by a director. Your written quote follows within 48 hours of that survey.
