Lincolnshire is a county of limestone cottages, Georgian market-town stock and generous rural plots. That is exactly the kind of building stock a run of timber cladding has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
Walls in Lincolnshire are rarely square and floors are rarely level. A run of timber cladding that is built in a workshop to a nominal size will show every millimetre of that. We survey first, scribe on site, and finish so the joint line disappears.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Timber Cladding in Lincolnshire — common questions
Will it all go grey?
If untreated, yes, and unevenly at first — the sheltered areas silver more slowly than the exposed ones. It evens out over two to three years. If you want it to stay honey-coloured, expect to recoat every two to three years.
Is timber cladding a fire risk?
On a domestic house below 11m, standard timber cladding is generally acceptable, subject to distance from the boundary. Above 11m or on flats, non-combustible materials are required. We check the position against current regulations before quoting.
How long will it last?
Larch and cedar in a well-detailed, ventilated rainscreen give thirty to fifty years. The failures we are called to are nearly always detailing — no cavity, wrong fixings, or boards taken to ground level with no clearance.
Does cladding need a cavity behind it?
Yes. A ventilated and drained cavity on treated battens over a breather membrane is what keeps the boards dry from both sides. Cladding fixed straight to a wall will cup, and the wall behind will stay wet.
Can you match existing joinery in the house?
Yes. We take a profile of the existing skirting, architrave or door and either match it from stock cutters or have a cutter ground so the new work runs identically. Matching an old paint colour is straightforward; matching aged oak takes a sample panel and a couple of attempts, which we build into the programme.
