Timber cladding, weatherboard & chamferboard must always be suitably protected from weather damage prior to installation.
Store packs well clear of the ground on level supporters spaced no more than 600mm apart. Protect from the sun, rain & extreme heat, preferably by storing in an under cover area with free flow of air to avoid excessive heat build up.
Ensure that any protective coverings used do not trap condensation, & any outdoor storage areas should be in an area that has no possibility of pooling water under the covers, that could result in the board taking up moisture.
Inadequate cover can result in:
Pine cladding is also relatively soft & requires care in handling to prevent damage. You should carry individual boards on their edge.
The long term performance of cladding is dependent on regular & effective maintenance. The frequency of maintenance will depend on if there was a treatment process used, the sort of treatment process, type of finish & the degree of exposure to the weather. For clear & stain finishes, recoating will be required after a period of approximately one to five years, whereas, a painted finish will require recoating after five to ten years.
The recoating & any further preparations are to be carried out in accordance with the finish manufacturer’s specifications. Before recoating, the cladding should be cleaned & the joints resealed where required.
