Hi PT People,
Thanks for taking the time to read this and for sharing your knowledge and goodwill.
We are looking for advice on what materials to clad a new build home with. Its 125sq/mtrs in size, on piles a meter off the ground, in a 'sea-spray zone'. So far the options we have been given are...
1. Generic Pine Boards 20mm thick.
2. Hardie Plank Boards either the narrow or broad types.
3. Linea Narrow Boards.
4. Palliside Plastic Boards.
Apparently all options would require a wash every year and all (except for Palliside) would require painting every five or seven years.
Have I missed any other viable options?
Pros and Cons? Final dollar values to buy and build apparently all work out the same after balancing costs to buy the material against time/cost to construct using that material.
Thanks for your input.
