Needs periodic cleaning and refinishing which will be a bit of a bitch to do. Maybe. There’s a place on our street with some wild timber cladding going on. It does look ten billion times better than everyone else’s basic bitch set ups tho.
Not if you use the right wood and treat it right. We used Siberian larch treated with Seasonite new wood protection, it's been up five years and shouldn't ever need any attention really.
How come?
