What are the practical advantages of installing UPVC cladding on a home?

Generally speaking, external UPVC cladding won’t directly insulate a home. It will, however, keep external walls dry when it is applied to traditional masonry construction. And research has shown that dry walls have significantly better thermal performance than wet walls. In fact, a dry wall can provide up to 25% energy savings compared to a wet wall. UPVC is also a great option for dealing with the UK’s mixed weather conditions. It is long-lasting...

What are the physical attributes of UPVC that make it such an ideal cladding solution?

UPVC cladding is extruded from hugely stable raw materials that give it its longevity and consistent performance characteristics. Enhancements in UPVC extrusion technology over the past 50 years mean that colour fastness is BBA accredited for at least 20 years, as is its structural integrity. Beyond its low-maintenance longevity, it resembles timber in terms of installation: it can be sawn, drilled and screwed in the same way as any old-fashioned...
