Why Choose Softwood Cladding?

Softwood cladding offers an ideal balance of aesthetic appeal, versatility, and performance. Species such as Western Red Cedar and Larch are chosen for their natural durability, attractive colouring and clean grain patterns. Their lighter tones create a bright, uniform finish that sits comfortably across both contemporary and more traditional builds.

Softwood cladding introduces natural materials into any project without compromising on longevity or visual impact. With a variety of profiles available, each installation can be adjusted to achieve the exact look and finish required.

Softwood Cladding Materials

 Western Red Cedar

Western Red Cedar is prized for its warm, rich tones, fine straight grain, and consistent colouration, delivering a refined, high-quality finish. Naturally durable and stable, it contains inherent oils that provide excellent weather resistance, making it well suited to exposed and demanding environments. Carefully graded options offer tighter grain structure and greater uniformity in appearance, ensuring reliable performance and a premium look for high-specification projects. Smooth to the touch and easy to work with, Western Red Cedar ages gracefully, softening over time to an elegant silver patina.

 

THERMORY® Benchmark Thermo Pine

Thermo-treated to enhance stability and performance, Benchmark Thermo Pine combines the warmth of natural timber with superior durability. Its rich, honey-brown tones bring a contemporary feel to any exterior, maturing gracefully with minimal maintenance.

 

THERMORY® Thermo Spruce

Thermo Spruce offers the same stability benefits as Thermo Pine, with a lighter, more Scandinavian appearance. The thermal treatment improves both dimensional stability and longevity, providing a durable cladding option that withstands moisture, UV exposure, and seasonal changes. Its light and even finish makes it a popular choice for minimalist designs.

 

Canadian Larch

Dense and resin-rich, Canadian Larch is valued for its strength and resilience. Naturally resistant to decay and insect damage, it delivers a robust and long-lasting cladding solution that handles harsh weather with ease and excellent structural integrity.

Softwood Cladding FAQs

What’s the lead time for softwood cladding?

Lead times are typically 2–4 weeks, depending on stock availability and the species selected. If you have a specific deadline, speak to our team. We’ll always try to do our best to accommodate your schedule.

Can I install softwood cladding myself?

Yes. Many customers choose to fit their cladding themselves, provided they are confident working with timber and follow correct installation guidelines. We’re happy to advise on fixing methods, spacing, and finishing to help you achieve the best result. For larger or more complex projects, we would recommend using an experienced installer.

How does softwood differ from hardwood?

Softwoods come from coniferous trees like pines and firs, while hardwoods come from deciduous species like oak and maple.

What is the best way to maintain softwood cladding?

To keep your softwood looking its best, simple maintenance is recommended. Use a UV oil such as Treatex Cedar Oil or Treatex Larch Oil, depending on your wood type. A quick annual inspection will help catch any signs of wear early. Re-treat any exposed areas as needed to maintain the cladding’s appearance and longevity.
