Detailed information
Quality craftsmanship in every detail
A successful project requires thorough preparation, the right choice of materials, and skilled execution adapted to local Gothenburg conditions.
Remediate moisture damage before it reaches framing
Gothenburg’s humid coastal climate subjects timber facades to persistent weathering. Timely remediation of rot-damaged siding prevents moisture from reaching the building framing. We replace damaged timber with craftsman accuracy, adapting measures to property condition and construction.
- ✓ Replacement of individual boards or recladding of exposed elevations
- ✓ Careful inspection of backing structure and timber end-grain
- ✓ ROT deduction handled directly on your invoice under current rules
Ventilation and protection suited to property conditions
A well-functioning timber facade requires proper ventilation and weather protection. During larger renovations or siding replacement, we review wind barriers, air cavities, and optional insulation when warranted by building condition.
- ✓ Review of air gaps and wind barriers suited to building construction
- ✓ External insulation completed when required and agreed upon

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions regarding process, quotes, and work in Gothenburg.
How do I know if siding needs replacing or merely painting?
If wood feels soft or spongy when pressed with a knife tip (especially at bottom edges and corners), rot has broken down timber fibers and boards must be replaced. If firm, scraping and repainting suffice.
Is external insulation worthwhile during recladding?
The need for external insulation depends on existing wall insulation, structure, and condition. During siding replacement, added insulation can be a good investment if conditions permit.
How does the ROT deduction apply to facade renovations?
Siding replacement, facade repair, and external insulation on your home normally qualify for ROT deduction on labor costs. We handle deduction directly on the invoice under current rules.
Is a building permit required to replace siding?
Replacing siding with like-for-like profile and color does not normally require a permit. Altering orientation (e.g. vertical to horizontal lap) or significantly changing color may require approval in zoned districts. Always verify with your local municipality.
