Frequently asked questions
How much does house cladding cost per m²?
Installed, uPVC cladding typically costs £50–£90 per m², timber £60–£100, fibre cement £80–£130, composite £90–£150 and aluminium £100–£160.
Do I need planning permission to clad my house?
Only in some cases. Properties in a designated area need planning permission and listed properties need consent; elsewhere, cladding usually falls under permitted development if the material is similar to the existing wall finish.
Will I need scaffolding for cladding?
Taller properties usually need scaffolding, which can add £350–£900 to the total cost.
Does cladding make a house warmer?
Not on its own. Installed with external wall insulation, it can reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency.
