Harmony Homes Utilise Palliside Weatherboards

It can be hard to determine priorities when planning a new home, but good architecture, high quality construction and an energy efficient design are right up there. The Lincoln show home brings together all these elements.

The distinctive horizontal lines of the home are enhanced by the Palliside Traditional Riverstone Weatherboards which feature on the exterior walls and chimney. Grant Russell, Director of Harmony Homes, chose to specify Palliside for its excellent aesthetic value and no-maintenance appeal.

Palliside is a solid weatherboard manufactured in New Zealand to withstand the country's climatic extremes and coastal conditions. The interlocking design which features hidden nailing, prevents moisture from getting behind the boards. In addition, a foamed cellular core and UV resistant top coat mean the boards will not chip or dent.
