Everything you need to know about finding a Cement Cladding Expert
Cement cladding is used to improve the appearance and insulation of buildings, and can be installed in the interior or exterior of a structure. Cement fibre boards, planks and panels are typically attached to brick, timber or plasterboard with screws or a dedicated adhesive. Cement is used as a binding agent in a variety of applications in the building trade and is a major component of concrete. Natural cement is comprised of a mixture of clay and limestone, and is produced in a fine powder form. Cement is typically first spread, then mixed, compacted and finally cured. Curing is when the cement sets and acquires it strength, and requires adequate moisture. Mixing water with cement causes hydration to take place, after which it dries to form a hard water resistant substance. Portland cement, a more complex mixture of mineral elements, has superseded natural cement, and together with aggregates such as gravel - are the principal ingredients of concrete.
