For generations, weatherboards have secured their place as Australia's cladding of choice. A timeless testament to their enduring appeal, they continue to offer a proven, economical, and highly effective solution for protecting and beautifying our homes.
Fibre cement weatherboards bring the timeless appeal of timber into the modern era, without the warping, rotting, or constant upkeep. Made from durable, high-performance fibre cement, our weatherboard range is designed to deliver sharp, stylish lines with long-lasting strength. Perfect for residential builds, renovations, and multi-res developments, these profiles suit a wide range of aesthetics - from heritage charm to contemporary minimalism. Lightweight, easy to install, and pre-primed for paint, they’re as practical as they are good-looking. Plus, with low maintenance needs and excellent fire and moisture resistance, they’re built to withstand whatever the Australian and New Zealand climate throws their way.
James Hardie™ external cladding is the ideal choice for making home exteriors beautiful and enduring. Like a protective layer or skin on the outside of a house, exterior cladding is ideal for providing weather resistance and safeguarding homes from harsh natural elements. Cladding and weatherboards are also chosen to add personality and style to a range of home designs. Cladding comes in a large variety of styles and textures which can be painted in almost any colour opening up unlimited design possibilities.
