Skiplap, Shiplap made easy!

Posted: June 3, 2019

Our Skiplap wood wall cladding is produced from salvaged and SFI Certified Douglas Fir and Beetle Killed Pine. Custom kiln dried to 6-8% moisture content. Unlike shiplap, our Skiplap is tongue and groove on all 4 sides for a zero waste wall paneling that can be blind nailed. Graded to our 99% usable specifications and ready to install.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HISTORIC SHIPLAP AND OUR TONGUE & GROOVE SKIPLAP:

Shiplap, by definition, are “boards that have been milled so that the top and bottom of each piece has a rabbet joint, so they can be stacked as siding“. In a nutshell, salvaged shiplap wood wall boards rest on top of each other and overlap, while tongue-and-groove boards join together and interlock.
