  • Everyone is covering their walls with shiplap. It’s the hottest wall covering. The Arlington homeowners love it too and want to finish the third floor with it. Kevin O’Connor finds Tom Silva installing shiplap in the office. But Tom has a not so big secret. Shiplap has been around for a long time.

    Kevin O’Connor checks on the progress throughout the Arlington house on his way up to the third floor where Tom Silva is working on shiplap paneling. Tom shows Kevin what a true shiplap joint looks like. The boards have overlapping joints on both sides and over time a small reveal between the boards is created as they shrink. This kind of siding has been around for a long time and is seen on barns and sheds. There are other ways of creating the same shiplap look. For this project, Tom is using 1x8 stock butted up against one another. First the wall is covered with tar paper so if the boards shrink the insulation won’t show through the crack. He marks the top of the board on the tar paper on each side and snaps a chalk line. They continue cutting and nailing in the pieces all the way up the ceiling.

    If you're going to paint it, and especially if it's simply going to be butted up to each other, why not use mdf and thus lower the chance it will swell/shrink and cause gaps?
    I guess the homeowner if the boss, but by electing for a sort of middle ground between shiplap and plasterboard, they seem to have fallen between two stools aesthetically. Looks kinda jarring to me, but perhaps I'm in the minority.

    I just purchased a home built in 1945. It is all hardwood framing, floors, and shiplap on the exterior and interior walls. Unfortunately the house was "updated" years ago, with drywall, particle board, and wallpaper covering the shiplap on the interior walls. Two layers of linoleum flooring covering the hardwood floors, with carpet on top. And shingle siding on the exterior.
    I'm going to peel off decades of "updates" to restore the shiplap, and these homeowners wanted shiplap, but didn't want it to look like shiplap. 🤦🏼‍♂️
