Recladding and Window Replacement for a Fresh, Energy-Efficient Look

Upgrading an older home isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about improving insulation, increasing durability, and enhancing energy efficiency. This window replacement and recladding project was all about bringing new life to a well-loved home while preserving its original charm.

Why Recladding & Window Replacement Matters

Over time, older cladding and single-pane windows can lead to poor insulation, weather damage, and high energy costs. By stripping back the existing materials and rebuilding with modern, high-quality components, we ensured this home will stay warm, dry, and structurally sound for years to come.

Step 1: Stripping Back & Strengthening the Frame

The first step was to remove the ageing cladding, exposing the home’s framing. While the structure was solid in most areas, we reinforced sections that needed extra support. This process is crucial in any recladding job—it allows us to identify hidden damage and fix issues before installing new materials.

Step 2: Upgrading to Modern, Energy-Efficient Windows

Next, we installed new double-glazed windows, designed to:
Improve insulation—keeping the home warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
Enhance natural light—making the interior brighter and more inviting.
Reduce energy costs—minimizing heat loss and lowering power bills.

Replacing outdated windows is one of the best ways to increase a home’s energy efficiency and comfort while boosting its value.

Step 3: Weatherproofing with Building Wrap & Flashing

Before recladding, we applied a high-performance building wrap—a key step for moisture control and long-term weather protection. Proper flashing around the new windows prevents leaks and ensures a tight, secure seal against wind and rain.

Step 4: Recladding for a Fresh, Durable Exterior

With the home prepped, we installed new weatherboards, aligning them for a seamless finish. This not only transforms the home’s appearance but also ensures better durability, lower maintenance, and improved weather resistance.

The End Result: A Stronger, More Efficient Home

This project was more than just a facelift—it was about future-proofing the home while keeping its character intact. With modern double-glazed windows, improved insulation, and a fully weatherproofed exterior, this home is now ready to stand the test of time.
