Hi.
Sorry if this is a dumb post/rant.
We moved into a house last year and some of the cladding on the wooden leanto has started to break down due to it not being treated by past owners.
I need to replace about 5x2m lengths. I popped to B&Q (big mistake) and it's about £11 per one.. but it was full of holes, bent etc. I spoke to the sales person and they said it sounds like I need the better quality ones. These went for around £16 per one!
I went to wicks and similar issue. I then went to Bradford's who prices were a little more expensive with the same issue (warped/knot holes).
Has shiplap cladding REALLY gone up this much or are they just ripping people/me off?!
About 5-8 years back it was around £6-7 a really good quality piece.
i'm new to the area (Somerset) so just checking out local sellers but prices seem similar..
