Grian Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I opted to have timber instead of uPVC on my timber-clad house and I'd appreciate advice on treating the fascia and bargeboards please, in order to prolong lifespan, bearing in mind: It is a very exposed coastal location - could throw a stone into the sea, gales most of the winter. I'd like to paint it before it goes on, and the temperatures are going to be low which seems to rule out linseed paint. Doesn't have to be coloured (so maybe wrong part of the forum). Again, thanks for help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone West Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 It depends on the type of timber, we have cedar and it's untreated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, it will be softwood of some kind. Rest of the wall are clad with siberian larch, hmmm, maybe the fascia etc ought to be too. Duh! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
