2. MOST SUPPLIERS OF VINYL
CLADDING WILL PROVIDE YOU
WITH VERY DETAILED
INSTRUCTIONS ON INSTALLING
VINYL CLADDING.

3. WHILE PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION IS
RECOMMENDED, IT IS POSSIBLE TO
SELF-INSTALL A GREAT LOOKING HOME
EXTERIOR WITH WEATHERBOARD CLADDING
MADE OF VINYL.

4. HERE ARE SOME BASIC
INSTALLATION TIPS

5. TIP #1
The installed panels should be able to
move freely from side to side. If they
don’t, it is safe to assume that they have
been attached too tightly and run the risk
of buckling or warping in future.

6. Do not use force.
When installing vinyl cladding
panels, push up from the bottom
until the panel engages with the
lock of the panel below it.
TIP #2

7. TIP #3
Never nail or staple the vinyl panel directly. Doing so
will not give the material room to expand or contract
and will result in ripples.
Always use the nail hem.

8. TIP # 4
Alwaysnailinthecentreofthepanel,neveronthe
edges.Nailingontheendofthepanelwilldamageit
permanently.

9. TIP #5
Do not caulk panels
where they meet or
at overlap joints.

10. BONUS TIP!
Don't forget that you will need
basic protective gear like
safety glass, ear muffs and
workman’s clothing and
shoes.
