Thanks for making this video. It was very helpful for a similar project I will be doing.FYI, you need box extenders for the outlets. They no longer meet code where I live when you just bump them out like that. At least wrap them with electrical tape.
When you hang shiplap around a door do you remove the trim around the door and then rehang the trim or run it it up against the door trim? Im trying to figure out how to do it on a wall that currently has a finished door on the wall..
I am going to be doing shiplap directly onto the studs (with paper backed insulation) in my garage. Anything you would do different vs. installing over drywall?
Hey JuliAnn. We installed all of it, then stained it. If you check out our other video we have a step by step guide of how we did a distressed look to it.
Very helpful! I'm trying to install one where windows are already installed so planning to remove the casing but i couldn't understand why you have to leave 3/16th inch
Thanks for the video! I ordered my materials before watching videos. Instead of factoring full-width pieces at the windows to cut out after nailing, I measured and bought shorter pieces for either side of the window. I did add a few extra pieces for each of my sizes. Do you think I'll run into issues with matching up level at the top of the window when I transition from the shorter pieces back to the full width pieces? Does my question make sense?
Thanks for the comment. No you shouldn't have any problems at all. Just measure and map it out before install to make sure it ends up where you want it to. Hope this helps.
I have a question. Is it necessary to remove interior windows to install shiplap board? I have a contractor who is putting this into his labor cost on his estimate.
Hey Lanya. No it is not necessary. Your Windows should already be installed and the Windows need to be cased out with wood in the openings. You can remove the Sheetrock and install casing. For example we used 1x5 finger joint wood around openings so we can install shiplap up to it. Hope this helps!
I love your video but a friendly suggestion, it’s very muffled and next video don’t fast forward I’m a girl lol and I’m trying to follow along when it comes to cutting out outlets! But by far your video is the best description when it comes to installing T&G thanks from Maine girl.
Thank you! I know this was one of our first videos we ever uploaded. Haha alot of learning along the way. We have better equipment now. 😎 Thanks for watching and the comment.
But the seams are pointless when the grain of the wood keeps going on. Butting two different pieces would add more visual interest which sounds like what your customer was looking for.
It looks like you installed tongue and groove not shiplap. I don’t think an electrical inspection would pass those receptacles with the lugs outside of the box. You need to extend the boxes out flush with the boards. Also you only needed long boards below and above the windows. You could have use shorter boards between the windows and cut the side pieces from a few shorter boards or used cutoff pieces to save money. But you probably already knew all of this.
Nice job and good info for an upcoming job of mine. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! 🙏🙌

Thank you Seth!!!
Fixing to start on a 18 × 10 room, your video was very helpful, lotta good tips, I'm gonna have to buy me a good nail gun, Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the comment! Good luck on your project!

We would pull the trim off the door all the way around then run it all even to the door jamb and add the trim back on top of the shiplap.

Yes directly onto studs will be great. We do that on new construction but this one was a remodel so didn’t want the mess for the customer. 👍
Very helpful. That staggered look trick is really smart.
Thank you!
If you were going to stain and seal the wood, should you do that after installation or before? Thanks for the detailed video!

What type of nail gun did you use and how long are the nails? Thank you, enjoyed the video
We used just a basic finish nailer. Nails were 2 inches.
@@BeauandKendall 15 or 16 gauge?
@@tonytrofe7137 16 gauge
do you put anything on it to seal it or is it ok to leave as is
Interior you don’t have to seal it but yes exterior definitely seal with something or paint.
Kinda amazing 😍😍
Nice 👌👌
did you put the nails in the shiplap grove or on the face?
We put them in the groove
How would you install in on a metal framed wall?
You’ll have to use a wood to metal trim screw would be the easiest way. Then putty the holes. Usually trim screws are really small
Can I install tung and grove pine around a claw foot tub ?
If you're talking about the walls around it, it shouldn't be a problem. Just seal the wood.
Thanks

thanks!! 😊
good job
what kind of nail and how long?
It’s in a finish nail gun. Our sheetrock was 1/2 inch and 1/2 inch for shiplap so we did an 1-5/8 through the tongue on it.

REMOVE the windows?!!!
Where do you buy shiplap?
We use a local lumber yard. This is a white fir tongue and groove. Easy to work with.
@@BeauandKendall What is your local area?

Strange to buy long enough pieces then find that they want seams?
I agree. 16ft is what we get all the time but they wanted seams to give it something different. 👍
Great video but the sound was really bad. Maybe invest in a good clip on mic.
Thank you for watching and the feedback!

No the seams are pretty noticeable even if the grain keeps going on. Customer wanted this look after it was installed so this was an easy fix. 😃
Can't hear your voice very good.
Dang I’m sorry. It was one of our first videos so didn’t have any good mics or anything.

Um, that’s not shiplap. That’s car siding. Geez.
Thanks Don! You’re a cool guy… 😁
