Wall Cladding Calculator
When planning to update the exterior of your building with wall cladding, calculating how much material you’ll need is essential. Our cladding calculator provides an estimated number of boards required for your project based on your measurements.
Please note: this tool is intended as a guide only. We recommend taking accurate on-site measurements and allowing for wastage, cutting, and joins during installation. As the calculator provides results in square metres, some board joins may be necessary depending on your layout.
For tailored advice or help with your project, please contact our Sales Team on 01837 659901.

Batten Selection
To correctly and safely install your wall cladding, we recommend that you use batons to support your installation. These battens are composite charcoal, but wooden battens can also be used to support the cladding boards, however, for maximised long-term performance, composite battens are suggested.
When installing your Cladding vertically battens must be placed a maximum of 500mm apart, and cover the entire length of the wall you’re cladding, this may mean attaching multiple battens alongside one another.
When installing your wall cladding horizontally, battens must be placed a maximum of 500mm apart.

Trims
Corner trims are an important addition to any wall cladding project. Corner trims are used to finish off any untidy corners, or edges that would otherwise be exposed, around windows, and doors for example or at the corners, where two cladded walls meet.
What is the difference between a flat or mitred edge?
A flat edge is an edge or a border around a door or a window, creating both a nice raised finish and protecting the exposed cladding beneath.
A mitred edge creates a seamless edge between one area and another, where there would otherwise have been a gap.
Corner trims are available in eight colours to either match or contrast with your existing corner
Please note these are an optional extra but are recommended for a neat and seamless finish.
