Great job keep posting, great product to use for cladding, is a product called clad, mate.

Brilliant mate. An Aussie tradie taking the time to share his knowledge. Keep it up 👍

[my-back-hurts]

Thanks for sharing your journey. And taking the time to explain. I've learned things from your videos that i didn't get taught in my apprenticeship. Top job!

[juancarlosalzategiraldo]

This is an amazing video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I wish you the best.

[Koston]

top work, you make it look so easy when we all know it isn't!

[WagnerAustralia]

Huge episode - it's really coming together now!

[wild_away]

Good on ya guys, everything is seamless mate

[gezza]

Hey mate reaallllyyy loving these videos. Two basic questions for ya (from a DIYer trying to learn)..do you install a trim piece to cover the join on the eaves or no need? Or silicon the joint perhaps? And second one is do the eaves need ventilation? My 1960’s house has it being the reason I’m wondering

Love the home made scaffolding fall rest for the gable ends (not being a smart arse) but it works. 👍

[joshuameehan]

These look like james hardie scyon boards? How do you plan the job around the tongue and groove so you don't waste too much of the cladding material

[dartymcphee]

Easy a few months to cladding and silicon! Hourly rate or price?

[homunkin]

hi, what is the best way to make a circle for down light and a square for exhauted fan ducting under eave ????

[manofausagain]

Hi nice work. Did you run a trim piece from top of weatherboard to eaves?

[raymondzhao]

great job, love your video. just wonder can i use screw rather than nails for holding the eave sheets?

[sydneyshinshi]

Looks sweet mate. It would be a pleasure for the painter to follow u blokes. How did you do the top of the gable over the roller doors. Off 6ft steps on the scaff planks? Also did you sika around the windows or leave it to the painter.

[bartbug]

Apologies, one other question regarding that framing for your eave sheets, with that piece of timber ( the full length batten) that runs form the facia/guttering...what sized nails do you use to fix it to the top plate area?

[danozdirect]

Love the vids mate
Did you straighten the external walls before installing weatherboards

[bartbug]

Another; what are those braces your mate is using on his tool belt?

[bartbug]

G'day mate, another random question: What sized nails are you using for those droppers and horizontal pieces for the Eave sheet to fix onto?

[-PORK-CHOP-]

Mate, do yourself a favour stop using a combo square and pencil and get some cladmates, these will ensure the spacings are exact around the entire house, as well you can work with long boards on your own, initial cost around $200 plus you can install the boards perfectly spaced in half the time, so if you pay for the boys for a days work, you can finish the cladding quicker and get them onto other jobs
