Ready For Some Home Improvement? Why You Should Choose Aluminum House Cladding

Blog

If your home has seen better days, and a fresh coat of paint won't provide you with the results you want, it's time to talk to your contractor about aluminium cladding. Exterior paint can change its colour and will hide minor imperfections, but that's about as far as it will go. For extensive home restoration, cladding is the best option. If you're not sure why you should choose aluminium cladding for your home, read the list provided below. 

It Requires Very Little Maintenance

If you have plans to repaint your home, it's time to think about the maintenance. One of the problems with ordinary exterior paint is that it requires quite a bit of maintenance. For instance, paint needs to be washed, especially along the lower edges of your home. That's because those areas can develop mud stains and even algae growth. Unfortunately, when paint gets coated with those substances, the affected areas need to be heavily scrubbed. Luckily, you won't have that problem with aluminium cladding. With aluminium cladding, a simple garden hose will keep the surface clean and tidy. 

It Provides a Customised Finish

If you're ready to give your home a makeover, and you want to ensure a truly unique appearance, talk to your contractor about the benefits of aluminium cladding. You might think that all aluminum cladding is the same, but that's not always the case. In fact, aluminium cladding comes in a variety of colours, styles and textures. The added variety allows you to customise the finish, which will set your home apart from the rest. 

It Improves Energy Efficiency

If you want to improve the appearance of your home, but you also want to improve its energy efficiency, don't settle on exterior paint. A fresh coat of paint won't do anything to improve your home's energy efficiency. For that, you need to choose aluminium cladding. You might not realise this, but aluminium cladding can increase energy efficiency and make your home more comfortable throughout the year. That's because a layer of insulation is applied before the aluminium cladding is installed. 

It Increases Protection 

If you're looking for a way to add curb appeal to your home and also increase protection, aluminium cladding is the perfect solution. Aluminium cladding protects your home from weather damage, pest infestations and it increases protection against bushfires. For maximum home protection against the elements, choose aluminium cladding for your home improvement project.

Roofs: Repair, Re-shingle, Replace and Other Roofing Ideas

Hi and welcome to my blog. My name is Jules, and several years ago, I bought an old house. As it needed so many repairs, we learned to compromise and prioritise our goals. That included the roof. Although the house needed a roof, we spent a few years working on other elements of the house, and during that time, we repaired and patched parts of the roof or added shingles as needed. Finally, we were able to replace the entire thing. I learned a lot through the process and wanted to create a blog about it. If you are interested in anything to do with roofs, please check out my posts.
