Providing a range of high quality tongue and groove timber

Tongue and Groove (T&G) cladding is one of the most popular timber profiles, chosen for its strength, neat finish, and versatility in both residential and commercial projects. Designed with precision, each board features a tongue (a protruding edge) on one side and a groove (a matching slot) on the other, allowing the boards to interlock seamlessly. This clever system creates a smooth, continuous surface with concealed fixings, giving you a refined and professional look every time.

At The Larch Cladding Company, we supply high-quality tongue and groove timber suitable for a wide range of applications, from modern home extensions and garden rooms to commercial façades and interior feature walls. Our tongue and groove boards are manufactured to the highest standards, ensuring durability, strength, and an elegant finish that works perfectly whether you install them horizontally or vertically.

Many customers choose larch tongue and groove cladding for its natural resistance to decay, insect damage, and harsh weather conditions. Its warm tones and distinctive grain pattern bring a unique charm to any project, and over time, larch will weather to an attractive silver-grey patina if left untreated. We also offer tongue and groove profiles in cedar and Douglas fir, giving you a choice of species depending on the aesthetic and performance you want to achieve.
