Where can I buy cedar cladding for a shed
Hi,
Can anyone tell me where I can buy cedar cladding for a shed I am building in Sydney and how much it will cost per square metre (or lineal metre - I think the boards usually seem to be around 120mm x 10mm)?
Also, how does it compare with just using treated pine? Does it last longer? Is treated pine much cheaper?
Cheers
John

I bought cedar cladding about 2 yrs ago at
North Shore Timber & Hardware
24 Smith St
Chatswood NSW 2067
(02) 9417 1306
Give them a call (no connections,etc)
Oh, yes, it is more expensive than treated pine. I have used it on a south wall and it still looks great.
Cheers

if you are talking about western red cedar from west coast usa and canada , it is hugely expensive and totally unsuited to our humid climate, will require endless maintainence , also soft , however a lovely timber lots of uses in joinery, threatened by exploitation of the resourse , use something dureable like hardieplank , aussie hardwood,, there is no affordeable w.r c, rossco
