InstallationGuideforShiplap

Shiplapisadistinctivetypeofsidingwhichisformedfromlong,horizontallystackedboards.Thissidingwas

initiallyusedonthesidesofwoodenshipstokeepthemwatertight.Shiplapiscurrentlyusedfordecorative

purposesindoors,asitsstackedboardscreateadistinctivevisualeffect.It’softenaddedonlytoasingle



1) FindingandMarkingStuds



a) Findtheverticalstudsbehindthedrywall.Runanelectronicstudfinderhorizontallyalongthewalluntilyou

canlocatethestuds.ThestudfinderwillflashanLEDbulboremitabeepingsoundwhenit’splacedoverastud.

Workslowlysothatyoucanbeprecise,andaimtomarktheexactcenterofeachstud.

i) Useapenciltoplacealightmarkatthecenterofeachstud.

ii) Ifyourstudfinderreadingsareuncertainorerratic,justmovethestudfinderupordownonthe

wallafewinchesandrunitacrossthestudagain.

b) Markthestudsusingasnapline.Onceyou’vefoundthecenterpointofeachstud,markitwitha

pencilinseverallocationsupanddownthewall.Then,holdasnaplineverticallysothatitcrossesallof

thecenter‐marks.Holdthetopandbottomofthesnaplinefirmlyagainstthewall.Pullthecenterof

thestringoutfromthewallandthenrelease,soitsnapsbackinplaceandleavesachalklinebehind.

i) Thechalklineshouldindicatethecenterofeachstud.Markthesechalklinesashighasyou’re

planningtobuildthewall,whetherthat’s6feet(1.8m)or20feet(6.1m).

c) Confirmtheverticallineswithalevel.Onceyou’vesnappedachalklinealongeachstud,you’llwant

todouble‐checktomakesurethatthelinesarefullyvertical,withnodeviations.Holdacarpenter’s

levelverticalalongeachofthechalklines.Checkthebubbleatthebottomofthelevel:itshouldfloat

betweenthe2linesontheglasstube.Thisindicatesthatthelineisvertical.

i) Ifyoudon’talreadyownacarpenter’slevel,youcanpurchaseoneatanyhardwarestoreorhome‐

supplystore.

d) Purchaseyourshiplapmaterial.Shiplapboardsarethin(about1inch(2.5cm)thick).Shiplapboards

haveasmallgrooveinthebottomandasmallridgeonthetop.Thisfeatureallowsthemtobestacked

easily.Ifyoucan’tfindactualshiplap(orfindthepriceprohibitive),it’scommontouse1in×6in

(2.5cm×15.2cm)boardsinsteadofactualshiplap.Theseshouldbeavailableatmosthardwarestores

andlumberyards.

e) Makesuretheboardsarestraight,flat,andfreeofknotholecavitiesbeforepurchasingthem.Avoid

usingwarpedboards.

f) Keepinmindthatlumbersizesaremeasuredbeforebeingsandedsmooth.A1in×6in(2.5cm

×15.2cm)willactuallymeasureabout0.75in×5.5in(1.9cm×14.0cm).



2) InstallingtheFirstShiplapBoard

a) Measureandcuttheshiplapboardtofitthewall.Usingatapemeasure,measurethewallonwhich

you’llbeinstallingshiplapboardsfromonesidetotheother.Then,usethetapemeasuretomeasure

thesamedistanceoneachofyourshiplapboards.Markthedistancewithapencil.Then,useahand

saw(oratablesaworbandsawifyouhaveone)andcuttheboardssothey’rethelengthofthewall

whereyou’llbeinstallingthem.

i) Makeallcutsoutdoors,sothatyouavoidmakingamessinthehouse/shedthatyou’reworkingin.

b) Staggershiplapboardsonawidewall.Ifthewidthofyourwallexceedsthelengthofyourshiplap,

you’llneedtostaggerboardsbybutting2boardstogether.Measureandcutthesecond(shorter)

boardtocorrectlyfillthegapbetweentheendofthefirstboardthewall.

i) Forexample,ifyourwallis20feet(6.1m)wideandyourshiplapsidingisonly15feet(4.6m),

you’llneedtocutanadditional5ft(1.5m)sectionofshiplaptofinishtherow.

ii) Evenifyourboardswouldfullyspanthewidthofyourwall,considerstaggeringyourshiplap

anyway.Itaddsvisualinteresttothewall.

c) SqueezealineofHeavyAdhesivepastealongthebackoftheshiplapboard.Dothisimmediately

beforeyouattachtheshiplaptothewall.HeavyAdhesivewillmaketheboardsadherefirmlytothe

wall.

[8]



i) Thisadhesivelookslikeatubeofcaulk,andcanbedispensedwithametalcaulkgun.Checkthe

inventoryatyourlocalhardwarestoreorhomesupplystore.

ii) Makesurethatthetubeofadhesivethatyoupurchasewilladheretoallmaterials(i.e.itshouldsay

“AllMaterials”onthepackaging)andissuitedforindooruse.

d) Settheboardagainstthewallandcheckthatit’slevel.Theadhesivewillholdtheshiplapfirmly

againstthewall,sodon’tnailitinplaceyet.Placeyourlevelalongthetopoftheboard,andcheckthat

thebubblefloatsexactlybetweenthe2linesontheglasstube.

i) Iftheboardisnothorizontallylevel,you’llneedtoliftouttheboard,theninstallspacersbeneath

thelowsidetoelevateit.

ii) Youcanstartapplyingshiplapeitheratthetoporatthebottomofyourwall.Ifyoustartatthe

bottom,gravitywillworkforyou.Ifyoustartatthetop,you’llhavetopreventeachboardfrom

fallingbeforeyounailitinplace.

iii) It’sbesttostartatthetopifyourceilingorfloorisunevensoyoucancorrectimperfectionsatthe

bottomwithabaseboard.

e) Nailorscrewtheshiplaptothewall.Youcandothisusingahammer,acompressed‐airnailgun,ora

screwgun.Use2in(5.1cm)nailsorscrewstoensurethatthenailwillpassthroughtheshiplapand

deepintothestuds.Foreachmethod,drivetwo2in(5.1cm)nailsorscrewsstraightthroughthe

boardandintothecenterofeachstud.Usethechalkmarksthatyoumadeearlierasyourguide.

i) Ifyouchoosetouseacompressed‐airnailgun,you’llneedtopurchase,borrow,orrentanair

compressorandhose.

f) Allofthesematerialsshouldbeavailableatyourlocalhardwarestore.

3) InstallingSubsequentShiplapBoards

a) Place3–5nickelsalongthetopoftheboardifyou’renotusingshiplapsiding.Spacethenickelsoutso

thattheyareequidistantapart(probablyacoupleoffeet).Properlyinstalledshiplap‐stylesidingshould

haveasmallgapbetweeneachboard.Thenickelswillkeepthe1in×6in(2.5cm×15.2cm)boards

fromstackingdirectlyontopofeachother.

i) Ifyou’reinstallingshiplapfromthetopofthewalldown,you’llneedtocarefullyholdthenickelsin

placeonthebottomoftheboardasyoulineupthenextplank.

ii) Alternatively,youcouldusescrapplexiglasspiecescutintostrips,stackedtothedesiredthickness,

andgluedtogetherasspacers.Theseareeasiertopulloutandmorestablethannickels.

iii) Ifyou’reinstallingactualshiplapsiding,skipthisstep.Theshiplapboardswilllockintooneanother

andyouwon’tneedtospacethemout.



b) Setanothershiplapboardinplace.You’llhavealreadymeasuredandcutthisboard,soyoucansetitdirectlyon

topoftheboardthatyou’vealreadyinstalled(ordirectlybelow,ifyou’rebuildingfromthetopdown).

i) Keepinmindthat,ifthewallyou’reinstallingshiplaponisnotexactlysquare,(e.g.ifpartofthe

shiplapwillbeadjacenttoastairway),you’llneedtocutandangletheshiplapboardsto

accommodatethesemeasurements.



c) Hammer,shoot,orscrew2nailsorscrewsintoeachstud.Asbefore,alignthesenailsorscrewsso

thattheyhitthechalklinewhichyoumarkedearlier,andwhichindicatesthecenterofeachstud.If

youmissthestudandshootthenailonlythroughdrywall,thesidingwilllikelyfalloffofthewallina

coupleofdays.

i) Atthispoint,youcanremovethenickelsthatyousetbetweenthe2boards.Prythemoutwitha

butterknifeorpencil,andsetthemontopoftheboardyoujustinstalled,inanticipationof

installingsubsequentboards.

d) Repeatthisprocesswiththerestofyourshiplapsiding.Measureandcuteachboard,thenplacethe

newboardontopof(orbelow)thepieceofsidingyou’vejustinstalled.Usethenickelstospaceout

eachboardfromtheonebelowit.Alwaysuse2nailsorscrewstoattacheachboardtothestud,and

makesurethattheypenetratethestuds.

[15]



i) Ifyou’restaggeringyourshiplap,beawarethatthespotwherethestaggeredboardsbutttogether

willnotbethesamefromleveltolevel.If1boardsticksoutmorethananotherandthemeeting

placeisnotonastud,youcanplaceasmallpieceofwoodbehindthe2boardswheretheymeet.

Screwbothbuttendstothepieceofwoodwithfinishscrewstomakethemlevelandevenwith

eachother.

ii) Onceyou’veinstalledthefinalsidingboard,youcanuseadampragtowipeoffanyremaining

chalklinesabovetheshiplap.



e) Applycaulkaroundtheedgesoftheshiplap.Usingasiliconecaulk(inametalcaulkgun),runathin

layerofcaulkalongboththeright‐andleft‐handedgesoftheshiplapthatyou’veinstalled.Thiswill

sealtheedgesoftheplanksandkeepthewatertight,andpreventdraftsorleaksfromcomingthrough

theshiplap.

[16]



i) Ifyouchosetostaggershiplapboards,runalinkofcaulkalongtheseamswherethe2staggered

boardsmeet.Youcanalsocoverthenailorscrewholeswithputtythatmatchesthecolorofthe

wood(orpaint).

ii) Bothcaulkandputtycanbefoundatanylocalhardwarestore.
