How thick is Cedral board?
Cedral boards come in two thickenesses.10 mm for Cedral Lap, 12 mm for Cedral Click.
What is Cedral Click?
Cedral click plank has a groove on one edge and a corresponding thin projecting ridge on the other (the tongue). When two planks are pushed together, the tongue ‘click’ into the groove along their length to give strong join with no need for glues- hence the name. The individual planks fit together almost seamlessly, making them perfect for plain wooden cladding.
Article: How to install Cedral Click Cladding
What’s the best? Click or Lap?
As a general rule, it’s a little easier to install Lap planks than Click. Click boards need to be fitted together and secured through the tongue, which can be tricky if you are not experienced with it. Lap system, on the other hand, just needs to be secured on the overlap and doesn’t need to fit together perfectly.
Article: Cedral cladding. Lap or Click?
What makes Cedral cladding boards strong?
Cedral cladding boards are made using “autoclave technology”. Planks are manufactured by applying intense heat and pressure to eliminate moisture from fibre cement meterial. This leads to composite consolidation and result in an extremely strong and robust fibre composite material.
How is Cedral board manufactured?
Cedral boards are manufactured using laboratory method simulating the ”Hatscheck Process”. The Hatsheck process consists the formation of thin “paper-like films that are placed one on the other until the desired sheet thickness is reached”.
Article: Fibre cement cladding technology
Do I need to consider climate when system is chosen?
As a general rule, Lap system is the better choice for a very rainy climate, as its overlapping planks shed water quite well. Click tongue and groove, on the other hand, can deteriorate in wet climates due to trapped water inside the interlocking connections.

INSTALLERS
No matter whether you choose a local installer or a national company, there’s a few tips to help you find the right installer for your home insulation improvements, such as asking for recommendations and making sure that they’re part of a certification scheme. This makes sure that they have the right skills and standards of workmanship to carry out the installation, and you can be sure that they know exactly what they are doing.
4 TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE BEST INSULATION INSTALLER
1. Thermal inspection picture in portfolio
It’s worth seeing a installer’s previous work. There’s no harm asking if you can see any properties nearby that they’ve installed insulation in. Best way would be to see Infrared Thermal Imaging Inspections. Thermal cameras spot small, but key changes in temperature in different areas of a house, identifying problematic areas that the human eye never could and some that a visual inspection could only hypothesize.
2. Reviews
Along with checking recommendations and previous work, finding reviews online can often be a great way to find out if they provide a good service or not. However, it’s best not to solely rely on reviews you may find or review websites, as there’s no controlling who writes them.
3. Compare prices
Comparing prices will also ensure companies can’t take advantage of you and give you a fair price.
4. Word of Mouth
The best way to find a great insulation installer is through recommendations. Make sure you ask friends and family. They will most likely give you their honest opinion and can tell you from first hand experience.
Whether you require a wall, cladding, external wall, loft or floor insulation fitted, you can find and hire your local insulation installers from popular UK web pages. A simple internet search will return thousands of potential installers near your area.
