3) How much Siberian Larch Tongue and Groove Cladding do you need?
How to measure for cladding
To get a price, you can type in how many square metres of cladding you need. It's very easy to work out.
We're going to work out the total area of one side of a building, then subtract the windows and doors, then add 10% extra for wastage.
1) For each wall that you’re cladding, measure the full width and the height in metres to work out the total area.
In this (expertly designed) example, the frontage is 9 metres wide and 4.7 metres high. 9 x 4.7 gives a total 42.3 square metres.
Total area of frontage = 9 * 4.7 = 42.3 square metres
2) Work out the area of the doors and windows
In this house front there are four windows and a door. Measure the width and height of each window and door, then add the areas together:
- Window 1: 1.9 x 1.2m = 2.28 square metres
- Window 2: 1.2 x 1.2m = 1.44 square metres
- Window 3: 1.2 x 1.2m = 1.44 square metres
- Window 4: 1.9 x 1.2m = 2.28 square metres
- Door: 1.0m x 2.0m = 2.00 square metres
Total area of windows and doors = 9.44 square metres
3) Subtract the area of the doors and windows from the total area of the wall.
We now have our total area (42.3 square metres) and the total area of the doors and the windows (9.44 square metres). Because we don't want cladding to cover the windows and door, we take the door and window area away from the total area.
Total area to clad = 42.3 – 9.44 = 32.86 square metres to clad
4) Add at least 10% spare for wastage
We recommend ordering at LEAST 10% more cladding than you've measured for to account for the required cutting and shaping.
32.86 square metres + 10% = 36.146 square metres. In this case, we'd round it up to 37 square metres.
Total to order = 37 square metres
Do the same for any other sides of the building, add them together and you'll have your grand total.

Why are the 'per m2' and 'per m' prices approximate?
Your total price is accurately calculated from a cubic metre rate based on the actual total volume of timber in your cladding, rather than from a stored square metre or running metre rate.
In order to show the price per square metre and the price per metre, we divide the total cost by the number of square metres and linear metres respectively. Due to rounding, this may mean that the square metre or linear metre price may be out by a few pence if you manually multiply it be the number of square or linear metres. The total price shown is accurate and we show the square metre and linear metre prices for comparison.
If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call.

Siberian Larch Tongue and Groove Cladding
Siberian Larch Tongue and Groove Cladding is available in a range of profiles including:
- IWC1 - 19mm x 145mm overall, with a 135mm face - For horizontal or vertical fitting
- IWC2 - 19mm x 95mm overall, with an 88mm face - For horizontal or vertical fitting
- IWC3 - 19mm x 142mm overall, with a 125mm face - For horizontal or vertical fitting
- IWC4 - 19mm x 145mm overall, with a 125mm face - For horizontal or vertical fitting
- IWC5 - 19mm x 145mm overall, with a 125mm face - For vertical fitting only
With the exception of IWC5, our tongue and groove profiles can be fitted either horizontally or vertically which is entirely your choice.
IWC5 is the only profile which must be fitted vertically. Also, if you want to use secret nailing to fix your cladding you can choose IWC3.
The Larch is supplied in Sawfalling and Unsorted grades and the colour can vary between pale reddish-brown to a brick red. Sawfalling Siberian larch is the lower grade and has a lot of character to it, making it a very attractive timber and its roots in Siberia mean that it is more than capable of standing up to English conditions.
Unsorted Siberian Larch is a lot cleaner in terms of knot content and is the highest we can supply in the UK.
Larch cladding is supplied in supplied in 3m lengths and longer. The lengths of your cladding will be random however where necessary we can try and get the exact lengths you need. If you do need exact lengths we ask that you check with us first (by calling 01889 279 018 or talking to us on the chat) so that we can make sure we can get what you want. If we can there is a “Special Instructions” box on the shopping basket page where you can enter your lengths.
Treatments
Most people leave their timber to go the traditional silver-grey in the sun. We recommend talking to www.wood-finishes-direct.com if you would like to treat your timber. If you do decide to treat your timber, it needs to be treated all the way round including the ends to prevent moisture getting in at all.
Fitting Guidance
These fitting guidelines are only a rough idea on how to fix your tongue and groove cladding. We do recommend you employ a professional who has experience fitting tongue and groove cladding.
Be sure to read our treatment guidance as treatment needs to be applied prior to fixing your cladding
Breathable Membrane
Consult a fitter to determine if your scenario would require the fitting of a breathable membrane between your wall and the cladding. This membrane stops rain getting to the wall, but allows moisture to escape, helping to prevent internal condensation and mould that can come with it.
Treated Softwood Battens
Treated softwood battens (available from our cladding accessories pages) are most commonly used to fix to the wall (or on top of the breathable membrane) to then fix your cladding to. If you are fixing your cladding horizontally, your battens need to be placed vertically, at around every 600mm (60cm), and vice versa.
Fixing
** Whether you use nails or screws, it's important that they are stainless steel, or silicone bronze ARS, so that the natural tanins in the timber will not corrode them. Never use iron nails for fixing timber.
To help stop the wood from splitting we recommend pre-drilling the timber and then holding it with the screw or nail head when you fit the board to the batten. Look to leave a 3mm gap between the boards, rather than butting them up tight like flooring, to account for any moisture movement and make sure that the tongue is facing upwards otherwise moisture will start gathering in the groove of the profile.
You can also use nails, preferably ring-shanked for extra grip, and again stainless steel so they don't corrode. For lower-density species like cedar, consider using nails with larger heads so the cladding doesn't pull through.
You can fit IWC 1,2,3 and 4 vertically or horizontally depending on the look you want from your timber. Whilst technically you can fit IWC5 horizontally, water can sit in the square channel, which is not recommended.
With each new row of cladding you add, it's preferred that you stagger the joins between each board so you don't create a visible seam.
As already stated, these are just ideas to get you thinking about installation and you should consult a professional installer before fitting your cladding as every scenario is different.
All our claddings are provided untreated. Fresh sawn timber claddings are best left untreated and to go silver grey.
There are a wide range of optional treatments available for different species of timber and we recommend talking to the excellent team at www.wood-finishes-direct.com, who know the most up-to-date information on all the newest treatment products.

Some commonly asked questions
How long does the cladding take to deliver?
Because we are sourcing our wood based on demand to ensure the highest quality, delivery may take from 14 to 17 working days once your order has been placed with us.
What are your delivery costs?
We calculate our delivery costs based on how far away you are from us, to get more information on this please check out our shipping costs page HERE.
Offloading
Aside from delivery locations that are priced on application, your delivery will be provided with means of offloading from the truck. This may be by HIAB (lorry with a crane arm), or by supplied manpower. The method will be determined by the haulage company we use based on your location and available options at the time. Please note, both offload options will drop your order to the side of the lorry, they won't be able to carry it around the back of a property, for example.
For areas that are priced on application, by default, we will quote for delivery on a flat-bed lorry that you'll need to arrange to offload yourself. We can quote for offloading on request, but to these areas it's usually prohibitively expensive, and cheaper for you to hire a forklift, or arrange to have enough people on-site to offload.
How do I place an order for cladding?
You can place your order online by working out your price above and adding your items to your shopping basket. You can then check out and your order will be processed securely and a confirmation email sent. Once your order arrives in our depot, we'll give you a call to arrange delivery.
Can I Order Samples?
Yes you can, you can order samples of certain timbers at www.iwood.co.uk/sample-request/.
If the species you need isn't there please give us a call or talk to us on our online chat.
