Cedral Lap is specially designed so that the planks are overlapped when installed creating a traditional, clapper-board aesthetic. Cedral Lap can be used as part of a building refurbishment or new build development. Ideal for residential properties as well as commercial, Cedral Lap is an ideal complement to other building materials, such as render and brick and looks equally as stunning when used to clad the complete building facade.
