After a few years of delays due to needing to repair & replace a stained glass window (plus including COVID) we finally were able to go ahead with the transformation of our home. Formplex kept us updated throughout the whole time - Sylvana & Howard were fabulous & answered all our questions.
Our home was built in 1905/1906 and had old aluminum cladding which had holes, hailstone dents & mould. We had chosen Vanilla & were constantly amazed watching the installation process as Andreas, the installer worked.
We are extremely happy with the result and look forward to many years of no maintenance.
Highly recommended & again, we thank Formplex for the great service.

In a few 'Mo Moments' one can see the practicality of the Formplex cladding and a few Mo - ments later I knew the price. Good product, good advice, nice to take a 'Mo' around the house.

I am very grateful to Peter and his team. I live in the coldest town in Australia and Peter and his team completed my cladding job in the midst of a cold winter under challenging conditions. My home was very tricky and complex to clad. My home has eleven sides, limited access and it is two stories at the front. My home has a number of balustrades, a deck, entry vestibule and a number of down pipes that all added to the complexity of the job. Peter was upfront with me from the beginning about what needed to be done and he kept me informed throughout the whole process. Peter and his team worked in challenging climatic conditions. One morning it was minus 9. I am so happy with the end result. My home looks like new and the cladding has been completed to a high standard. I cannot thank Peter and his team enough. They are hard working, problem solving, highly skilled professionals. They did a first class job on my home. I am very happy with the result. Thank you so much, Peter and team. I can highly recommend Peter and his team and the Formplex product.

Formplex were wonderful, on time and very professional.
Mo was very informative, he knows this Australian product inside out, he answered all our questions and was more then happy to discuss plan and payment options that suited our needs, highly recommend.
Thank you
Leisha & Vic

Buyers beware.

I can't believe how little service you get after this product starts falling off your home. I have been trying to get a repair done for over a year now, only because they keep telling me they have someone going to fix it and it never happens. 4 times now.

Update, thank you Formplex, I look forward to you reaching out and providing a solution.

Update 4 months after last.had a call from Formplex, still going to be another couple months, waiting on tradie, same story again.

Update, nearly 2 years to sort out this issue.ended only a couple weeks after sending an email threatening legal action for cost related to further disrepair or damage due to the cladding issue not being rectified in a timely manner as per ACCC laws.

Make your choice.

This review is not in regards to the quality of the product or install but rather of Formplex employee conduct.
Many of these Formplex samples were thrown on my neighbourhood's driveways and nature strips as my suburb does not have letterboxes (Cockatoo, Victoria). The conduct of the Formplex rep who distributed these samples shows a blatant disrespect for the natural environment as uPVC takes 30+ years to go brittle let alone actually break down into organic compounds. We are forced to put these samples into our landfill bin as we are not allowed to put code 3 recyclables into our recycling bins. Littering is not the best way to promote your business.

My wife and I were very impressed with the level of service and professionalism displayed by Formplex as a company and the individual representative that walked us through the benefits of the excellent product, the installation process, and overall time frames from delivery through installation and final sign off, we couldn't have asked for more.

A crew of honest guys, very impressed so far.
A good Aussie company with many years experience.

We had Formplex installed recently to the upstairs section of the house which was weatherboard. This is the best decision we have made as the upstairs section looks brand new now & many friends & neighbours have commented on how wonderful it looks – they thought it was a new extension! I highly recommend getting Formplex if you have a weatherboard home, as you will never ever have to paint or replace rotting wood again! Formplex is adaptable to all weather elements, we noticed a reduction in heat on very hot days & we are yet to experience the coming winter which I believe will be warmer now that we have Formplex. If you want a low maintenance product, then this is perfect & they have so much confidence in their product that they offer a 50 year guarantee, the product will outlive us! All Formplex staff we dealt with were extremely wonderful to deal with, from sales we dealt with Bruce whom is a fantastic, professional & very kind & thoughtful person, he really went out of his way to help us with our queries in getting the upstairs section ready for Formplex installation. Also, the office ladies Silvana & Val were very helpful & very accommodating to our requests. The delivery man Gareth was such a pleasure to deal with as well as Robert who picked up the Excess Formplex once the job was completed, he was very professional & very polite. And the installation team Howard & Frank were regularly updating me on the status of our job. The installer, Yazco did a fantastic job on our home, he was very professional & worked very hard. He was also very helpful when we asked him questions & we valued his advice. The scaffolding company used ‘Veco Scaffolding’ was the best scaffolding company! Steve & Mario were an amazing & very friendly & accommodating team, they put up an extremely solid scaffold, I had alot of tradies attending the property from Builders/Roof Tradie’s/Plumbers/Electricians/Painters & every single one of them commented on how excellent & solid the scaffolding was & they even asked for the phone number of the Scaffolding Company as they wanted to use them for their business. A BIG thank you Formplex staff for the First Class Service & wonderful outcome to our home. I have been recommending your company to friend’s who have weatherboard homes as they will never be disappointed, you spend a bit of money but in the long run you never have to paint or replace weatherboards ever again, a maintenance free quality product.

DO NOT use this company! Was a traumatic experience from start to finish (finish is loosely termed) which included exposing my entire family to asbestos fibres for weeks, damage to my property and verbal abuse from members of the company! Completely unprofessional and would NOT recommend to anyone!

Formplex weren’t in the area when we first enquired however Mo assured us he would meet with us when he was local. True to his word we met with him today and his level of expertise was excellent. We’ve chosen to clad our house in Rivergum and can’t wait to see the end result. Fantastic service and would highly recommend.

Honestly unsure if i would reccomend this company so far.started off great called formplex for a quote they came out the following day went through the choice of weather boards ect signed the contract paid $1250 deposit. Materials were delivered quickly aswell 4 days after signing contract.
I paid formplex a further $7,500. I was told it would all be installed in 8-12 weeks.
20 weeks after signing the contract im still waiting for any work to start.
I have called them multiple times to see when it will be installed.
Everytime they say 4 weeks then you call after 4 weeks and they tell you 4 weeks again.
Im over calling and following up with them just to be given the run around i shouldnt have too.
I have a 8 week old and 18month old kids this job needs to be done with currently no weatherboards on the side of the house.
Honestly getting pretty disapointed with this company.
No discount/compensation on the delay or even any updates.
Will give them another 2 weeks to get the job done otherwise will be calling them to pick up the materials in my backyard that have been sitting there for months and get my $8750 that i have paid so far back so i can get another company to complete the job.
Really hate leaving reviews like this but i feel no othee option

My husband and I have just signed up to have our home cladded with formplex. Apart from the product being Australian made, a 50 year guarantee on product and workmanship, and many other features, the biggest reason for signing up with Formplex was our sales rep Mo. He is a down to earth person, while informing us of the product. Mo was attentful to our needs, our concerns all of which we're met in full.
If you are thinking of having your home cladded have a chat with Mo from Formplex you won't be disappointed.

We wish to thank all on the Formplex team for the installation of the vinyl weatherboards on our home in Mornington, Tasmania. In particular to installers Bernard and his offsider Milan. They were professional, very friendly and cooperative with our wishes. The product was installed just as was promised and this has dramatically improved both the look and efficiency of our home. We are already noticing how warmer and quieter our home is. We have received many complements from our neighbours and passer byes and will heartily recommend Formplex to all who ask. Thank for a great service and we could not be happier. Gary and Chris Rumbold

Very happy with supply and installation of my Formplex Cladding. There was a delay for installation due to weather and high demand in building industry but Formplex staff were
very helpful and communication was prompt. Highly recommend product and service
