Dormer extension cladding material

Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 2.38 PM

Hi I am building a dormer extension. The architect has specified zinc cladding for the sides and the face of the dormer. However there doesn't seem to be many trades that do this and it is very expensive so i am looking for alternatives. Does anyone know what the smooth cladding is that has been used on the face of the attached brochure page 10 picture 01? https://www.marleyeternit.co.uk/~/media/Files/Product-Files/Roofing/Brochure-Request/Vertigo---Vertical-Slates.pdf Thanks

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi, the link won’t work for me. If you’re looking for a smooth cladding, try Cedral cement board. I’ve fitted a lot myself and it’s a great product. There’s a few examples on my profile. I hope this helped
