Nutec Barge Board

Everite Nutec Barge Boards are the perfect finishing solution for virtually any roof type—whether slate, tile, or sheeting. Designed to protect the underlying timber structure from harsh weather conditions, these boards also enhance the overall appearance of your building. Ideal for new constructions and renovations, Nutec Barge Boards are especially effective in coastal or high-wind areas, where they provide crucial protection at the gable ends by helping to prevent tiles or slates from being lifted by the wind.

Made from Nutec fibre-cement, these barge boards offer durability, environmental safety, and low maintenance—all while delivering a cost-effective alternative to traditional timber. Whether you are covering up old, weathered fascia or completing a modern architectural design, Nutec Barge Boards are built to last and designed to impress.

• Joints: Should be placed between fixing points—not at them—for structural integrity
• Edge Fixing: Drill holes (do not punch) when fixing within 25mm of the edge
• Painting: Boards don’t require paint for protection, but will accept water-based paints; ideally, paint before installation and touch up after
