British Larch/Douglas Fir Matchboard Cladding

Our British Larch/Douglas Fir Matchboard Cladding is the ideal choice should you require that traditional 'T&G' look to your cladding project, along with the natural durability and stunning grain of English Larch/Douglas Fir, impeccable weather protection and a cost effective alternative to our oak claddings. 

Douglas Fir has striking colour variations from pinks, browns to creams depending on which part of the tree it is cut. There are some dark brown knots which can loosen as the wood dries, this occasionally results in resin patches that may ooze a little at first and sometimes during subsequent hot summers. Due to its super high resin content, English Larch/Douglas Fir can prove to be twice as durable as common pine, making it an incredibly strong and hardwearing species. 

This machined cladding is recommended for external use only. If exposed to varying weather conditions before fitting your boards, they are likely to cup, warp and split; the ideal time to fit cladding to keep this to a minimum is between the months of October and April and within 7 to 14 days of delivery. 

Your boards will be supplied untreated. No treatments are required, however if you wish to preserve the supplied colour or use a weather resistant sealant, please take a look at our Treatex range. Should you wish to leave it to age gracefully, it will eventually turn to a beautiful silvery grey colour as the suns rays do their work.

We offer the following section size: 

• 120mm x 12mm - The overall width is 120mm, with the visible face measuring 110mm 
• 120mm x 16mm - The overall width is 120mm, with the visible face measuring 110mm 

The face size is less 10mm to account for the tongue joint.
