Q: With your wood coming from so far away, does Greenwall Siding have a bigger environmental impact than other building products?
A: Although the transport of our raw material from South America to North America does have a carbon impact, the overall environmental footprint that our siding product leaves is still far smaller almost all other siding options in the marketplace.
Q: What kind of durability can I expect from Greenwall Siding?
A: Laboratory studies going decades back support the ever-growing number of outdoor projects Eucalyptus Grandis is used in with proper maintenance and care.
Q: Do you need to paint or stain Greenwall Siding prior to installation:
A: It's not necessary but for some types of installation, for example in conjunction with rainscreen systems, it is recommended.
Q: How does Greenwall Siding paint?
A: Very well. The wood is not rich in tannins, so latex and oil primers and paints both work well. Some testimonials have pointed to oil paints being easier to work with on Greenwall Siding. It often comes down to the experience and preferences of the painting contractor. We are glad to provide samples if you need to dabble with some colors!
Q: How does Greenwall Siding stain?
A: Our siding stains and paints great. We are thrilled about our own weather protectant stain, but we're not going to stop you from staining it your own way!
Q: How difficult is it to repair Greenwall Siding?
A: It's no more difficult to repair Greenwall Siding than with any other siding product. Should a piece or an area of siding become damaged, remove the fasteners and the affected piece and replace with new Greenwall Siding.
Q: What if we are planning an addition in a few years - will I have a hard time finding Greenwall Siding?
A: Not at all. We're not planning on going anywhere - reach out to us when you're ready; we will help you get the materials you need.
Q: How standardized is your product?
A: Most of the patterns we make Greenwall Siding into fall into the standard millwork designs as defined in the WWPA Pattern Book. We strive to listen to customer's needs, however, for a bespoke custom look.
Q: Do you offer free consultations?
A: Greenwall Siding is glad to offer a free consultation, but this will depend on your proximity to our offices.
