The Renovation Team delivers professionally managed house recladding projects across Auckland with a fixed price and fixed duration approach, giving you greater confidence throughout the renovation process.
For many Auckland homeowners, discovering signs of a leaky home can be stressful. Water damage doesn't just affect the exterior of your home. It can impact structural elements, insulation, indoor comfort, and your family's peace of mind.
At The Renovation Team, we help homeowners navigate the house recladding process with practical advice, experienced project management, and clear communication from start to finish.
From your first consultation, James Goren will be your primary point of contact, helping you understand your options, coordinating the process, and ensuring you always know what comes next. Whether your home requires partial recladding, full recladding, or repairs alongside exterior upgrades, our team works with you to deliver a solution that suits your home and your budget.
Restore Confidence in Your Home
Complete House Recladding
Suitable for homes requiring replacement of the entire exterior cladding system due to weather-tightness concerns, deterioration, or major renovations.
Partial Recladding
When only specific elevations or affected areas require replacement, partial recladding may provide an appropriate solution depending on the condition of the home.
Leaky Home Remediation
Where moisture has entered the building envelope, we coordinate repairs that may include framing repairs, cavity systems, cladding replacement, flashing improvements, and associated building work.
Exterior Renovations During Recladding
Many homeowners choose to complete additional improvements while recladding is underway, such as:
New windows and doors
Exterior insulation improvements
Deck upgrades
Exterior painting
Roofing coordination where appropriate

How Much Does House Recladding Cost?
Typical House Recladding Investment
One of the first questions homeowners ask is, "How much does house recladding cost?"
The answer depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the condition of the existing cladding, whether hidden moisture damage is present, the cladding material you choose, and the extent of any structural repairs required.
After an initial consultation and site assessment, we provide a detailed proposal with a fixed price and fixed duration wherever practical, so you have greater clarity before construction begins.
What Affects the Cost of House Recladding?

Every house recladding project is different. Some of the biggest factors that influence pricing include:
-The size and layout of your home -Single-storey or multi-storey construction -Existing cladding type -Hidden moisture or timber damage -Structural repairs required -Cladding material selection -Window and door replacements -Building consent and compliance requirements -Scaffolding and site access -Insulation upgrades completed during the project
*These figures are indicative only and are intended as a general guide. Every home is unique, and the final investment depends on the condition of the property, project scope, material selection, consent requirements, and any repairs required after the existing cladding is removed.
If you're concerned about a leaky home or ageing exterior cladding, the best way to understand your investment is through a professional assessment.

Most recladding projects take 6 to 12 weeks. The exact time depends on the size of the property and the extent of damage behind the cladding. In some cases, we may recommend moving out temporarily due to the open nature of the work.
In some minor reclad jobs, yes — but in most full reclads, we recommend moving out temporarily for your safety and comfort. The cladding is removed from the entire house, which exposes the interior to the elements and creates a noisy, dusty environment. We’ll advise you upfront whether temporary relocation is necessary and help you plan accordingly. Some of our clients move into short-term rentals or stay with family for the duration.
