Australian houses in the 1950's and 60's were built using cheap brick veneer, red brick, weatherboard, and fibro. Just drive through any old suburb and you'll see rows and rows of these one-storey ugly ducklings, none of which do much for an impressive house façade.

But, take a closer look and you'll notice more and more people are going out and looking for these ugly ducklings to buy. Why? Because you can give them a simple and cost effective inside-out lick and resell them for a good profit.

One of the best ways to improve the appearance of these old style houses is to give the exterior a total makeover. Cladding is a simple and cost-effective way to add value to a home's exterior. Whether you think the façade needs a simple feature panel of cladding, or a full makeover, Young & Bracey offers a range of innovative cladding products that can improve your kerb appeal.

Vinyl Wall Cladding looks good and requires virtually no maintenance. Duratuff Vinyl Cladding has a fifty-year manufacturer's warranty and never needs painting, staining, or caulking. Young & Bracey can install Duratuff Vinyl Cladding directly over a wood or fibro substrate, leaving a stylish and lasting impression. The vinyl weatherboards come in a range of rich colours with authentic wood grain textures and the look of real painted timber without any of the hassle. The best part? We can match gable vents, window frames and shutters, guttering, and fascias to create a uniform look.

For the environmentally conscious looking for the latest in energy efficiency, then Haven Insulated Cladding is an exterior solution you'll seriously want to consider. It has a fully protected, CFC free, solid foam insulation built onto the individual weatherboards, and the insulation is a graphite enhanced EPS foam made with Neopor, a product that helps reflect radiant and convective heat up to 19% higher than traditional insulated cladding, depending on the profile. Haven Insulated Cladding also comes with a double lifetime warranty with hail protection. Plus, it has the sleek look of real wood, and stands out of the crowd with four high end profiles to choose from.
