Wall Cladding
Replacement
Over time, existing wall cladding systems can become damaged, weathered, corroded, faded or no longer suitable for the building’s requirements.
Young & Company undertake wall cladding replacement works for commercial and industrial buildings where the existing external cladding is aged, deteriorated or in need of replacement.
Wall cladding replacement can help improve:
- Building appearance
- Weather protection
- Long-term durability
- Thermal performance where insulated systems are used
- External building condition
- Overall property value and presentation
Replacement wall cladding can be carried out using a range of modern cladding systems, depending on the building, design requirements and project specification.
Wall Overcladding &
Building Refurbishment
Wall overcladding can provide a practical and cost-effective way to upgrade ageing commercial and industrial buildings without always requiring full removal of the existing wall cladding system.
A new cladding system can be installed over suitable existing wall coverings to improve the building’s appearance, performance and weather protection.
Wall overcladding is particularly useful where a building requires a visual upgrade or “facelift” to modernise its external appearance.
Benefits of wall overcladding can include:
- Improved external appearance
- Modernised building façade
- Improved weather protection
- Improved insulation where specified
- Reduced disruption compared with full removal
- Extended building lifespan
- Cost-effective refurbishment option
- Opportunity to upgrade flashings, trims and details
This can be particularly beneficial for industrial estates, warehouses, commercial units and older buildings where the external appearance has become tired or dated.
Our wall cladding work is focused on commercial and industrial profiled metal cladding, composite panels, built-up systems and wall overcladding. We do not generally undertake high-rise rainscreen façade or residential tower block cladding remediation works.
New Build
Wall Cladding
Young & Company also provide wall cladding installations for commercial and industrial new build projects.
We work with main contractors, developers and project teams to deliver wall cladding packages that suit the performance, appearance and specification requirements of each project.
New build wall cladding works may include:
- Composite wall panel systems
- Built-up wall cladding systems
- Profiled metal wall cladding
- Feature cladding areas
- Flashings and trims
- Interfaces with roof cladding systems
- Rainwater and perimeter detailing
Our experience in both roofing and wall cladding allows us to deliver joined-up building envelope solutions across commercial and industrial projects.
Wall Cladding Systems
We Install
Young & Company install a range of commercial and industrial wall cladding systems depending on project requirements, building use and specification.
System options may include:
Composite Wall Panel Systems
Composite wall panels provide a clean, modern and efficient external cladding solution.
They can offer strong thermal performance, fast installation and a high-quality finished appearance.
Composite panels are commonly used on commercial, industrial and new build projects where appearance, insulation and long-term performance are important.
Built-Up Wall Cladding Systems
Built-up wall cladding systems offer flexibility for refurbishment and new build projects.
These systems can be tailored to suit project-specific insulation, profile, finish and design requirements.
They are suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial wall cladding applications.
Profiled Metal Wall Cladding
Profiled metal wall cladding provides a robust and practical solution for industrial and commercial buildings.
It can be used for replacement cladding, overcladding, refurbishment works and new build projects.
Profiled metal cladding is available in a range of profiles, finishes and colours to suit the building and project requirements.
Royaldeck ‘S’ Wall Cladding
Royaldeck ‘S’ can also be used as a wall cladding and overcladding system for suitable commercial and industrial refurbishment projects.
Its standing seam, secret-fix appearance provides a clean and robust external finish without exposed fixings, making it suitable for projects where appearance and durability are important.
Improving the Appearance of
Commercial & Industrial Buildings
Wall cladding is one of the most effective ways to transform the external appearance of an ageing commercial or industrial building.
Many older industrial units, warehouses and commercial premises have external wall cladding that is faded, damaged, outdated or no longer reflects the standard of the business operating inside.
New wall cladding or wall overcladding can provide a much-needed facelift, improving kerb appeal, tenant appeal and the overall presentation of the building.
This can be particularly useful for:
- Industrial estate refurbishments
- Commercial unit upgrades
- Warehouse refurbishment projects
- Business premises improvements
- Schools and education buildings
- Manufacturing and workshop facilities
- Buildings being prepared for sale, lease or reoccupation

FAQ'S
What types of commercial and industrial wall cladding do Young & Company install?
Young & Company install a range of wall-cladding systems for commercial and industrial refurbishment, replacement, overcladding and new-build projects.
Depending on the building, specification and project requirements, the available options may include:
- Composite insulated wall panels
- Built-up wall-cladding systems
- Profiled metal wall cladding
- Feature cladding areas
- Royaldeck ‘S’ secret-fix wall cladding
- Purpose-made flashings, trims and perimeter details
The most appropriate system will depend on the building use, condition, appearance, insulation requirements, design and budget.
Can existing commercial or industrial wall cladding be overclad?
Yes, existing wall cladding can often be overclad where the current cladding and supporting structure are suitable to receive the new system.
Wall overcladding involves installing a new external cladding system over the existing wall covering. It can provide a practical way to modernise an ageing commercial or industrial building without always requiring the existing cladding to be completely removed.
A survey is required to assess the condition of the existing cladding, supporting structure, fixings, flashings, openings and other building details before overcladding is recommended.
When should wall cladding be replaced rather than overclad?
Full wall-cladding replacement may be the better option where the existing panels or sheets are extensively damaged, corroded or otherwise unsuitable to remain in place.
Replacement may also be appropriate where:
- The existing supporting system is unsuitable for overcladding
- There is significant water ingress or deterioration
- Existing insulation needs to be completely replaced
- The client wants the original cladding removed
- A complete building-envelope upgrade is required
- Existing openings, flashings or interfaces require substantial alteration
Young & Company can assess the existing wall cladding and advise whether replacement or overcladding is likely to provide the most suitable long-term solution.
Can new wall cladding improve the appearance and thermal performance of a building?
Yes. Wall-cladding replacement or overcladding can significantly improve the external appearance of an ageing commercial or industrial building.
A new cladding system can give older industrial units, warehouses and commercial premises a modern facelift, improving kerb appeal, tenant appeal and the overall presentation of the property.
Where an insulated composite panel or insulated built-up system is specified, the works can also improve thermal performance and weather protection. The precise performance will depend on the selected system, insulation specification and existing building construction.
Do Young & Company install wall cladding on new-build commercial and industrial projects?
Yes. Young & Company provide wall-cladding installations for new-build commercial and industrial projects, working with main contractors, developers, architects, consultants and wider project teams.
New-build wall-cladding packages may include:
- Composite insulated wall panels
- Built-up wall-cladding systems
- Profiled metal wall cladding
- Feature cladding areas
- Purpose-made flashings and trims
- Door, window and perimeter details
- Interfaces with roof-cladding systems
- Associated rainwater and weathering details
Our roofing, cladding and in-house fabrication capabilities allow us to provide coordinated roof-and-wall building-envelope packages where required.
