Cladding and Recladding Projects
SCE Corp delivers cladding and recladding projects for strata buildings, commercial properties and residential developments across Sydney and NSW. Cladding projects involve the removal and replacement of external cladding systems to address compliance requirements, weathering damage or building upgrades. Recladding transforms building exteriors with new cladding materials including fibre cement, metal composite panels, rendered systems and timber alternatives. Property owners, strata managers and developers engage our team for projects requiring safe access planning, staged delivery on occupied buildings and compliant documentation. Our project portfolio demonstrates experience across aluminium composite panel replacement, compliance upgrades and complete building recladding programs.

Our Approach to Cladding Projects
Cladding and recladding projects require careful planning around occupied buildings, weather protection during works and coordination of access systems. SCE Corp conducts initial assessments to identify existing cladding types, substrate conditions and scope requirements. We develop removal and installation sequences that maintain building weatherproofing throughout the project. Access planning includes scaffolding, swing stages or elevated work platforms depending on building height and configuration. Our supervisors coordinate trades, manage material deliveries and document progress for client reporting. Completion documentation includes material certificates, installation records and compliance certification.
Proof and trust
All cladding and façade projects are delivered under our ISO certified management systems. Our certifications include ISO 9001:2015 for quality management, ISO 14001:2015 for environmental management and ISO 45001:2018 for workplace health and safety. DBP registration applies for building work requiring compliance under the NSW Design and Building Practitioners Act.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is building recladding?
Building recladding involves removing existing external cladding and installing new cladding systems. This may be required for compliance reasons, to address damage or deterioration, or to upgrade building appearance and performance. SCE Corp delivers recladding for strata and commercial buildings across Sydney.
2. How much does recladding cost per square metre?
Recladding costs vary based on cladding type, building height, access method and substrate repairs required. Costs typically range from several hundred dollars per square metre depending on material specifications. Contact SCE Corp for a free quote.
3. How long does a building recladding project take?
Recladding timeframes depend on building size, cladding area, access complexity and weather conditions. A typical mid-rise building takes 8 to 16 weeks. Larger or more complex buildings may take several months.
4. What cladding materials are available for replacement?
Common replacement cladding materials include fibre cement panels, aluminium composite panels, metal sheeting, rendered systems, timber cladding and solid aluminium panels. Material selection depends on compliance requirements, budget and design intent.
5. Is cladding replacement required by law in NSW?
Buildings with combustible cladding may be subject to fire safety orders requiring remediation. The NSW Cladding Taskforce identified buildings requiring assessment. Owners corporations should check with their local council or fire authority.
6. Can recladding be done while the building is occupied?
Yes. Staged delivery programs allow recladding while buildings remain occupied. Work zones are contained, weather protection is maintained and access is managed for resident safety. SCE Corp specialises in occupied building works.
7. What approvals are required for recladding?
Recladding typically requires a construction certificate or complying development certificate. Fire safety upgrades may require additional approvals. SCE Corp can advise on approval requirements during the scoping phase.
8. How is existing cladding safely removed?
Safe cladding removal requires containment systems, dust suppression, proper handling procedures and licensed waste disposal. Work platforms provide safe access and environmental controls prevent debris reaching ground level.
9. What warranty applies to new cladding?
Warranty periods depend on cladding manufacturer specifications and installation workmanship. Typical warranties range from 7 to 15 years for materials and 6 years for workmanship under statutory requirements.
10. What information is needed to quote a recladding project?
Provide site address, building plans, existing cladding type, scope description, any fire safety reports, access constraints and strata approval status. This allows accurate assessment for pricing. Contact SCE Corp to discuss your project.
