How much does architectural cladding cost?

The cost of wall cladding will vary based on the materials used, the complexity of the project and the scale of the installation.
You’ll also need to factor in long-term costs for an accurate picture.
For example, though timber cladding is typically the most economical in terms of installation costs, this cladding will require ongoing maintenance and treatment (and may need to be replaced).
Over time, this can become an expensive option.

For an average cost per m2, consult the table below.
