Excellent I have now confirmed that this is what I will be doing to the hall bathroom ceiling! It's the hotest room in the house hot showers dryer running and people leaving the door shut. Popcorn ceiling doesn't last forever and this seems to be the best way to fix it. Thank you so much for your super calm voice and expertise. ❤
This looks great! Well done! I have to cover some popcorn ceilings and want to use shiplap and tin tiles. I was concerned that shiplap might not be the best material for a bathroom, due to the constant moisture. What is your take on that?
I think that the moisture is a non issue as long as you have a working exhaust fan which all bathrooms should. The paint alone will protect the wood and they also come pre primed that I like to use.
Did you guys use liquid nails on every plank? Also what length were the brads that were long enough to get through the plank and the sheet rock into the studs? Thanks in advance!
Not exactly sure to be honest. I guess it depends on how uneven it is, it might be a simple fix or you might need a new ceiling it's really hard to tell without seeing it.
When installing over popcorn like shown, did you find that the boards were slightly uneven when doing so? Or, was everything flush and installed with no scraping? Thanks!
Thx for this - where your ceilings 8’ in height? If so, did you find they made your room feel taller with shiplap? We had this in our former house that was 9’ ceilings and it was great but worried it would make our new house with 8’ ceilings feel more closed in… happy for your thoughts! Thx!
The ceiling looks great! I am renovating a 1920's home for my daughter. The ceilings are really bad with thick texture and the sheet rock seams show. I want to shiplap the ceilings. The ceilings are longer than a shiplap board. How would I go about installing them without seams? Any suggestions?
Thank you, that sounds like an awesome project!! That is so sweet that you are doing it for your daughter. They sell 12' boards that you could use to reduce the amount of gaps. Also, caulking or spackle the transition gaps between cut pieces. I prefer spackle because it can be sanded down for a more seamless transition.
This looks great and I'm looking to do similar! Do you mind sharing what the cost was for you? My contractor is quoting me almost $3,000 just for the shiplap and then additional for crown molding
It can get expensive if you have a larger area to cover but I have an alternative option that uses 1/4" plywood that can save a lot of $$, here is the link to my blog post if you want to see: angelamariemade.com/shiplap-ceiling-diy/
So, MDF should never be used in a bathroom, or even in a basement close to the ground for that matter. If you want to put shiplap in areas with excess moisture you need to use real wood. Also it was recommended to prime the boards after caulking. Depending on what is being used, Dap being most common where I live, the wood trim must be primed before caulking (dapping as we say) or it will all peel off. This project looks really good the day it was put in but in a couple years those boards will all be swollen and puffed out due to excessive moisture. I have been a carpenter for 17 years. Do things properly and don’t waste your money.

That's so sweet to hear! Thank you very much, I really appreciate it!
I will also be covering popcorn ceiling. Amazing job!
Great tutorial. You make it look simple!
Thanks so much, I'm glad it was helpful!!
You did a great job, best of all you saved a bunch of money's..and now you are house proud.
Thank you! :)
A helpful tip is to pre-paint the molding (and even the shiplap) prior to installation.
I was thinking to line up boards and spray them all quick. I had to buy a spray painter for my fence so I got spoiled how easy it was.
Great job! Will be working on ours this coming month!
Definitely my next up grade in out bathrooms. Thanks for the video.
So glad it was helpful!
I love your well done videos. Great job, young lady!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful JOB!!

Awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it!
Looks great!!!
Thanks!!
Great job. Looks amazing.😊
Thank you! 😊
Good job
Thanks!
I wonder if it will trap moisture between the shiplap and drywall.
Nice

Oh, no furring strips needed huh?? Good to know!
Did you guys use liquid nails on every plank? Also what length were the brads that were long enough to get through the plank and the sheet rock into the studs? Thanks in advance!
We did use liquid nails on each plank and we used 2" brad nails to get into the studs.
@@AngelaMarieMade thank you
Will this work on abestos ceiling?
Thanksssssssssth!
I hate popcorn ceiling! Excellent job!!!!
Does water collect and drip from the shiplap sealing?
Me too!! Thank you! We don't have any issue with moisture collecting on the ceiling.
The ceiling studs are called ceiling joists.
What do you do for uneven ceiling?
Not exactly sure to be honest. I guess it depends on how uneven it is, it might be a simple fix or you might need a new ceiling it's really hard to tell without seeing it.
Batten it out first
Great job. Great option without removing popcorn. What do you do when the space is longer than the length of the planks, stagger?
Thanks
You can buy it up to either 12' or 16' I think if your room is bigger I would stagger it so you don't have one crack all the way down
When installing over popcorn like shown, did you find that the boards were slightly uneven when doing so? Or, was everything flush and installed with no scraping? Thanks!
No, everything was flush!
Did you nail into any area other than the marked stud lines?
We did not, we used liquid nails and the crown molding was also installed and offered additional support.
I know you said you got the primed shiplap from lowes. What size exactly. Was it the 1"x8"x12'?
No, they were 5.25"x12. Here is the link: www.lowes.com/pd/Classic-5-25-in-x-12-ft-White-Pine-Shiplap-Wall-Plank-Coverage-Area-5-25-sq-ft/1001068360

caulking seams works well if edges are even

Also, caulking or spackle the transition gaps between cut pieces. I prefer spackle because it can be sanded down for a more seamless transition.
@@AngelaMarieMade thank you for the advice. I will look into the longer boards.
@@doreenjensen3260 You're welcome!
How do you splice it together if the length is longer than 12 or 6 feet?
I would use light spackle or wood filler and sand it well to make it uniform once it is painted.
what guage and length were your brads?
They were 2" brad nails!
@@AngelaMarieMade Tnx and what guage? 16 or 18?
This looks great and I'm looking to do similar! Do you mind sharing what the cost was for you? My contractor is quoting me almost $3,000 just for the shiplap and then additional for crown molding
If you do you will save a ton of $$$😄 The shiplap was about $130 and the crown moulding another $30.
Is the shiplap ceiling expensive
It can get expensive if you have a larger area to cover but I have an alternative option that uses 1/4" plywood that can save a lot of $$, here is the link to my blog post if you want to see: angelamariemade.com/shiplap-ceiling-diy/
Hey!Angela,I want business consultation, how can I contact you?
Unfortunately, I do not offer any business consultation services.
@@AngelaMarieMade Hey,Angela,I mean can you make an unboxing video for our tool,and i will send you free sample.
Pretty big gap at ends...guess that’s what molding is for
Yes, the molding covers up the gaps.
Why do you nail the ship lap in the middle? I was told to nail the tongue of the ship lap, the next board would hide the nail.
For a ceiling it needed some additional support! Good point about putting some in the groove so it is less holes to fill before painting!
I will be grateful if you check your email & Instagram DM
we just finished a ship lap ceiling with NO nail showing

So your saying they did it properly, by using Primelinx primed pine shiplap (real wood).
Only thing that should have been done is NOT match the cut lines each row!
good point!
great job! Do you have another place other than Facebook or Instagram
I am also on TikTok and Pinterest! My username is the same there - angelamariemade. I also have a blog! angelamariemade.com/
