For hundreds of years timber cladding has been a popular choice for decorative facings to buildings. Several award-winning buildings in recent years, incorporating timber cladding and the availability of a wide range of suitable timber species, have helped to increase this popularity.

Timber cladding can produce excellent functional performance coupled with exciting aesthetics, providing the detailing is correct.

TRADA Technology has many years experience supporting designers from concept phase, through to material selection material and design detailing, enabling them to get the job right, first time.

We are also able to support contractors by providing pre-production and/or onsite checking of material quality and workmanship.

Unfortuntely sometimes cladding does not perform as intended. We are able to carry out onsite inspections to establish what has gone wrong and offer guidance on remedial action. If required this can involve litigation services including legal representation and the provision of written satements and test reports.
