RapidClad for garden rooms and lodges

A stone finish for garden rooms and lodges

Garden rooms, lodges, glamping pods and holiday lets look the part with a stone or brick finish. RapidClad installs at 30–40 m² a day, so new units are finished, photographed and taking bookings sooner.

Why RapidClad

What you get

Faster turnaround

Less time between build and first booking, because the cladding goes up in days.

Listing-ready looks

A stone or brick finish gives units a premium look in listings and on site.

Consistent across a site

Pre-coursed rails keep every unit looking the same, from the first lodge to the last.

How it works

Fix it. Clip it. Point it.

Steel rails fixed to a wall

I

Fix it

Rails are fixed to the prepared wall, already set to your course height. Every line is level before a single slip goes on.

Stone and brick slips clipped into rails

II

Clip it

Cultured concrete stone or brick slips clip into the rails. Each one is held mechanically, so there’s no bedding mortar to wait on.

Pointed joints between slips

III

Point it

Joints are pointed for the look of a traditionally built wall. Then you move on to the next one.

Speed

30–40 m² a day, not 4–8

Traditional stonemasonry lays a few square metres a day. RapidClad’s rails set every course in advance, so slips clip straight on — up to ten times the area in the same day.

Measure Traditional stonemasonry RapidClad
Typical installation rate 4–8 m² a day 30–40 m² a day
