Like many other wood materials, one of the most important requirements for maintaining oak cladding is to ensure you clean them regularly. Cleaning regularly will help remove impurities like mildew, mold, and dirt. 

Subsequently, this means that you can get the most out of your material not only for the short-term but even making them last longer in the process.

Of course, you must always ensure that you periodically inspect your oak cladding so that you can discover signs of damage as quickly as possible. Lastly, don't hesitate to apply a protective finish and oil to maintain the color and make it as vibrant as possible. 

If you discover minor damages during your periodic inspection, don't hesitate to talk to a professional as quickly as possible to prevent further issues.
