Our cladding service in Coomera

Cladding installation

New external cladding for renovations, extensions, alterations and existing homes. We set out the wall system first - wrap, vertical battens, drainage cavity, vermin mesh - then install the boards or panels you have chosen, whether that is fibre cement weatherboard, vertical panel cladding, timber or composite. Getting the setout right is what makes the finished elevation read as straight, even lines rather than a patchwork.

Cladding replacement and re-clads

Removing old, damaged, deteriorated or simply dated external cladding and replacing it with a modern system. This is the single fastest way to change how a house looks from the street, and it is also the point where you get to fix what is behind the wall - insulation, wrap, flashings and any timber that needs attention. We handle removal, disposal, the new install and the trims and flashings that finish it properly.

Cladding replacement and re-clads, Orange Projects

Fibre cement and James Hardie cladding

Fibre cement is the most common choice on new work here because it handles UV, salt air and driving rain with very little maintenance. We install the widely used James Hardie range - HardiePlank and Linea weatherboards for a classic profile, Axon and Stria for vertical and horizontal panel looks, Matrix for a contemporary expressed-joint facade, and EasyLap where a flat rendered-look sheet is wanted. Other manufacturers are available too, and we will tell you honestly which product suits the wall.

Timber cladding and weatherboards

Timber cladding still looks better than anything imitating it. Shiplap, weatherboard, board and batten and vertical shadowline in spotted gum, blackbutt or cedar, plus timber weatherboard replacement on older homes where matching the existing profile matters. Timber needs recoating every 18-24 months on exposed elevations, so we walk through the maintenance honestly before you commit, and offer composite as the low-upkeep alternative.

Cladding repairs

Repairs to cracked, split, water-damaged or storm-damaged boards, failed joints and flashings, and the carpentry behind them. Where only part of an elevation has failed we can often repair and blend rather than re-clad the whole wall, which keeps the cost down. Where the problem is the original installation - no cavity, no flashings - we will tell you that too.

Timber behind existing cladding

Most re-clads come apart cleanly. Occasionally, once the old cladding is off, some deterioration turns up in framing, battens or trims that nobody could see beforehand. If that happens we stop, photograph and show you exactly what is exposed, and price any rectification before continuing. It is not something to worry about in advance, just something worth knowing can happen so there are no surprises mid-job.

Details that decide whether it lasts

Head flashings over windows, correct sill and apron details, sealed penetrations for taps and lights, adequate ground clearance so boards are not wicking moisture, stainless or hot-dipped galvanised fixings near the coast, and cut edges sealed before fixing. None of it is visible on a finished job and none of it can be fixed later without opening the wall back up.

The wall system behind the boards

A compliant installation is a drained, ventilated cavity: sarking or breathable wrap on the frame, vertical battens creating an air gap, vermin mesh top and bottom, then boards fixed to the battens. Water always gets behind cladding - the cavity is what lets the wall drain and dry. Skipping it is the most common cause of the failed cladding we get called out to in Coomera.

What cladding cost in Coomera (2026)

Installed cladding typically runs $180-$400 per square metre. Fibre cement systems such as HardiePlank, Linea, Axon and Stria sit at the lower to middle of that range, composite in the middle, and hardwood timber cladding toward the upper end. Removal and disposal of existing cladding is quoted separately. Prices vary with access, existing condition and the level of finish you choose. Upgrading builder-grade finishes delivers the biggest visible improvement in these homes.

How long cladding take

A feature entry or single elevation is generally 3-5 days. A full house re-clad usually runs 2-3 weeks including scaffold, removal of the old cladding and flashing works.
