HardiePlank Cladding in Alton – Sail Cloth External Wall Insulation Project

Location: Alton, Hampshire

Service: External Wall Insulation & HardiePlank Cladding Installation

Project Overview

We recently completed this HardiePlank cladding project in Alton, with the customer choosing cladding primarily as a way to incorporate external wall insulation and improve the property’s exterior.

The installation included 25mm Celotex insulation, a waterproof membrane and timber battens before the property was finished with HardiePlank cladding in Sail Cloth.

This provided the customer with the added insulation they were looking for while also giving the exterior of the property a smart, low-maintenance new finish.

Why the Client Chose Cladding

• The main aim of the project was to add external wall insulation to the property.
• A 25mm Celotex insulation layer was incorporated behind the new cladding system.
• HardiePlank provided a durable and low-maintenance exterior finish over the insulated wall.
• Sail Cloth was selected to give the property a clean, traditional appearance.
