- Looking to learn more about tongue and groove wood ceiling install? In this video I share our experience and learnings! This method could also be used to create a cool accent or feature wall.
We used secondary tongue and groove pine boards to create a budget friendly high impact ceiling design feature in the 'project room' of our shop. Using a brad nailer this tongue and groove material was easy to install; measure, cut, nail and REPEAT! Other useful power tools: miter saw, jig saw & table saw.
A couple of challenges that needed some finesse:
1) Secondary pine is a lower quality product and some of the widths were inconsistent
2) Cutting around light fixtures and fans is a slow meticulous process. Measure thrice - cut once!
3) Closing the gap on the final piece. Did you know a room is seldomly perfectly square? It took some skill to cut the final row to a proper width.
Full details in the video :)

What gauge nail did you use? Carpenters in the USA recommend 15 or 16 gauge. Looking at your gun it appears to be 18 gauge or even 23 gauge.
Thats good info - thanks for sharing! Our brad nailer is 18 gauge.
Hi, te salut din România. Ma bucur sa te cunosc,esti o fata adorabila si foarte priceputa.Te voi urmari cu multa placere.Succes in marele proiect.Paul.
salut si multumesc ☺ Very cool to see you are watching from Romania!
Nice 🙏
love the project, also how did you do your brick wall, is that panelling?
Thank you! Yes, the brick wall is panel. It was really easy to install but we did have some minor bowing due to moisture.
Hi thanks for the video. I'm getting ready to do 16' t&g pine on my outside covered deck. A lot of the pieces are decent but have a slight bow to them. Did you have many challenges with that during install?
Yes, some boards were bowed and we needed to use leverage to straighten the pieces into place, then quickly secure them using the brad nailer. Occasionally a board was too far gone and needed to be swapped out. Good luck with your project!
We’re doing same project on outside covered deck. We’re restraining the boards with Tung oil. It looks natural but some of the boards are curling. Any advice?
Can you tell me what gauge Nail you used?
Can I use pin nailer gun for the tongue and groove board to install on ceiling? could the nail be able to hold these board?
Good question! A pin nailer with smaller headless nails likely doesn't have the holding power for this tongue and groove pine. I'd recommend a brad nailer or finish nailer for this project
Do i not need a gap around the perimeter to account for swelling because of temperature changes?
Natural wood products will shrink and swell. Standard recommendation is 1/4" gap around the perimeter. We installed our ceiling in the summer when humidity was highest so opted to reduce the gap anticipating more shrink than swell. Hopefully that works in our favour!
@@thehillproject1 thank you!
Where I buy wood
We bought from a local timber store, but you can find this type of tongue and groove pine at Homedepot or Lowe’s too
Yeah I’ll just tell you where I got mine. Facebook marketplace had some Amish untreated tongue and groove pine that the kiln dry
Hi Paige,what are you doing how are you
