Hi Everyone.
A house I am looking at is Western Red Cedar cladded. I like everything about WRC except what I have read about needing to oil it yearly.
It is for a PPOR.
I have searched on here and found almost nothing on WRC (except windows). Can anyone help me out with what it would cost me to maintain it? What are my options?
I have heard 3 options
1) Leave it alone (which is what this one has now...how long does it last?)
2) Oil it (Looks great, but I am told you have to do it every year... $$$)
3) Water seal it, again, needs to be done regular -2 yearly I think...not sure on cost.
Can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction?
Cheers
Chris
