Home Grown Larch Cladding

Home Grown Larch Cladding At Hoghton Timber, we supply premium Larch Cladding – a naturally durable, attractive, and versatile choice for exterior and interior projects. Larch is one of the toughest and most resilient European softwoods, making it an ideal material for cladding that not only looks beautiful but also performs exceptionally well against the elements. Available in a range of profiles, thicknesses, and finishes, our Larch Cladding is a sustainable, cost-effective solution for both residential and commercial buildings. Whether you are designing a contemporary façade or a traditional rustic finish, Larch offers timeless natural beauty and long-lasting strength. Why Choose Larch Cladding? Larch is highly regarded for its hardness, density, and natural resistance to decay. These properties make it a popular timber for cladding across the UK. Key benefits include: • Durability – Naturally resistant to rot, decay, and insects, Larch performs well outdoors without the need for chemical treatment. • Strength – One of the strongest softwoods, it provides a robust and reliable cladding material. • Appearance – Warm golden-brown tones with striking grain patterns that age gracefully into a stylish silver-grey patina when left untreated. • Low Maintenance – Can be used untreated for a natural weathered look or oiled to preserve its rich colouring. • Sustainability – Larch is a fast-growing species available from well-managed UK and European forests, reducing environmental impact. Applications of Larch Cladding Our Larch Cladding is suitable for a wide range of projects, including: • Residential Homes – Perfect for creating modern, natural exteriors that blend seamlessly with their surroundings. • Garden Buildings – Ideal for sheds, summerhouses, pergolas, and outbuildings. • Commercial Buildings – Adds warmth and character to office spaces, retail outlets, and public buildings. • Interior Walls & Ceilings – Larch is also increasingly used internally for feature walls and ceilings, offering a natural, rustic finish. Thanks to its durability and strength, Larch Cladding is a versatile solution for both small-scale domestic projects and large architectural designs. Larch Cladding Profiles & Options At Hoghton Timber, we can supply Larch Cladding in a variety of profiles to suit your project: • Feather Edge – Overlapping boards for a traditional look with excellent water run-off. • Tongue & Groove (TGV / TG&V) – Provides a clean, contemporary finish with tight joints. • Shiplap – A classic cladding style with a subtle shadow line. • Board-on-Board – For a striking, layered appearance. • Square Edge Boards – Simple and versatile for custom designs. We can also provide planed (PAR) or sawn finishes, and machine your cladding to bespoke profiles if required. Finishing & Maintenance One of the main appeals of Larch Cladding is that it requires little to no treatment. Left to its own devices, it will weather naturally to an attractive silver-grey, popular in modern architectural designs. However, if you wish to retain the timber’s warm golden-brown tones, we recommend treating it with a high-quality UV protective oil, such as the Treatex Exterior Oils available from Hoghton Timber. These not only preserve the colour but also enhance protection against UV rays, moisture, and surface checking. Environmental Benefits Choosing Larch Cladding is also an environmentally conscious decision. At Hoghton Timber, we source from sustainably managed forests in the UK and Europe, ensuring traceability and responsible forestry practices. By opting for Larch Cladding, you benefit from: • Reduced carbon footprint compared to imported tropical hardwoods. • Naturally durable timber with less reliance on chemical preservatives. • Renewable material that supports sustainable forestry.
