Seeking advice on economical exterior cladding for timber frame garage/workshop (NSW)
Hi guys,
I've just (finally) received DA approval for building a 15 x 3.4m tandem garage/workshop. I've already done my white-card and intend to do the owner builder certification in the coming weeks.
I've yet to submit for my CC though (OB certification and sewer encasement to come first). I'm of the understanding that I need to have decided my building materials before I submit the CC.
I wonder if anyone here could advise on a suitable material for exterior cladding, where price and 'ease of installation' are the main priority, and the cosmetics are a distant second. Most of the walls are going to be hidden by a tall colorbond fence (500mm on the east side) or the existing dwelling (200mm from the west side), so something I could simply install (onto the 70mm timber frame) and paint over would be ideal. Only the front facade will be clad to match the existing dwelling.
Also, are there any other specifics I need to have worked out (beyond the information already submitted for DA, and of course my OB certification) in order to submit for CC?
Regards,
Dale
