What to keep in mind when installing facade cladding? We give you an overview of different cladding options (brick and fibre-cement) and the insulation material that can go with it. An energy-efficient facade does not only contribute to a comfortable living environment, it is also good for your wallet and the climate.
Let’s start with the beginning. Cladding is the installation of a protective facade material over another (like a second skin). The outer layer adds protection to your home. It improves your house’s weather resistance against rain, snow and wind… But as facade cladding is an extra shell around your home, it is also very visible. In that sense, it also serves an aesthetic function. You want your house to look good, of course. And cladding also helps you do that.
Cladding is usually combined with insulation to improve your house’s degree of thermal insulation against the heat and cold. Insulating blocks made from polystyrene or mineral wool, for instance, are placed on your walls or on areas that are most exposed to the cold and wind. To protect the insulation and your home, the insulated facade is covered by facade cladding. Fibre-cement sidings are a good and good-looking way to do this.
When you are adding insulation and cladding to your house, there are a few elements to take into account. Here are a few tips to make sure your home gets the best possible second skin.
