Our Shiplap v-groove cladding can be used vertically, which makes it great to clad structures, including garden buildings. Available in popular colours, inlcuding a new addition of Moondust Grey, the cladding can elevate the look of any outdoor space.
Small doors and shutters such as those found in barns and sheds are often constructed of shiplap cut directly from the walls, with only thin members framing or crossing the back for support. Shiplap is also used indoors for the rough or rustic look that it creates when used as paneling or a covering for a wall or ceiling. Shiplap is often used to describe any rabbeted siding material that overlaps in a similar fashion.
In interior design, shiplap is a style of wooden wall siding characterized by long planks, normally painted white, that are mounted horizontally with a slight gap between them in a manner that evokes exterior shiplap walls. A disadvantage of the style is that the gaps are prone to accumulating dust.[2]
Installing shiplap horizontally in a room can help carry the eye around the space, making it feel larger. Installing it vertically helps emphasize the height of the room, making it feel taller. Rectangular shiplap pieces can be placed in a staggered zig-zag layout to add texture and enhance the size of the room.[3] Shiplap can also be installed on the ceiling, to draw the eye upwards.[4]

Shiplap refers to a few different things. Genuine shiplap is a material used to weatherproof the exterior of old-fashioned houses as well as barns or sheds. It is a wooden plank generally used for exterior siding.
Shiplap cladding is very popular because is easy to install and can usually be painted or stained as desired. It can also be less expensive than traditional styles of cladding, depending on the wood from which it is made. (Pine being among the cheapest).
However, shiplap is very likely to warp if installed incorrectly, so for the inexperienced DIYer this is likely the wrong project to attempt. Warped shiplap timber cladding can cause long-term damage to your home by leaving it exposed to the elements, making structural and water damage much more likely. If you are unsure of your ability to install shiplap cladding, this is probably where to hire professionals for installation.
There are a few different types of shiplap, both in the grooved edge and the wood from which it is made. Common types of groove include the Square Edge, Nickel Gap, V-joint (aka Eased Edge), and the Tongue and Groove.
The average price of shiplap cladding varies greatly depending on which material is chosen for the project. Generally, the overall cost of a shiplap cladding installation will cost somewhere between $110-350 per square metre.
However, timber in general is one of the cheapest forms of exterior cladding available today and will cost significantly less than UPVC or Aluminium. The average timber boards alone will usually cost around $40 per square metre (again, dependent on the type), making them a very viable option for those looking to renovate on a budget.
Blackbutt shiplap cladding is an excellent accentuating feature for the vast majority of design styles, but looks best when used in tandem with industrial materials or colour schemes (such as steel) and in contemporary settings. Blackbutt timber is one of the more expensive styles. You can place an order with the high quality supplier Nationwide Timber here and enquire for a quote.
Pine is one of the best options for shiplap cladding given its widespread availability and overall pricing. As one of the cheapest materials on the market, treated pine weatherboard cladding is available in most major hardware stores.
You can buy similar white pine shiplap lining boards to the ones pictured above here from Bunnings. Average prices should hit somewhere around $8 for a 133 x 13mm plank of shiplap cladding in pine. Pine is also the best choice for those hoping to paint over the natural wood colour.
There are a few different types of cedar cladding, but Western Red Cedar is widely considered the best. Naturally termite resistant, durable and lightweight cedar cladding can be purchased here, also from Bunnings, in multiple widths.
Spotted Gum is another very popular choice for shiplap cladding because it has a distinctive style and colour variations which give it a natural yet stylish look. Spotted Gum works well as exterior shiplap cladding but is also popular for interior feature walls due to its beauty.

The cladding on the outside of a shed is not just cosmetic; it helps to protect the shed from water penetration and weather damage. Tongue and groove cladding is the most popular styles of cladding. The timber used to build sheds with tongue and groove cladding has been specially shaped so that all the panels interlock. The interlocking system prevents water from penetrating the wood, protecting the shed from water damage and rot.
Tongue and groove cladding also makes sheds stronger, the interlocking timber creates a strong panel, which is very durable. Tongue and Groove sheds are always recommended if you want to use your shed to store heavy items or valuable items. Tongue and groove makes a stronger shed, which is harder to break into.
Shiplap tongue and groove sheds share many of the same qualities as regular tongue and groove sheds, but the Shiplap has one special feature. Shiplap cladding has a little channel running along side the timber. This little channel or groove, allows water to run off the shed very quickly. This also helps the shed dry quickly after exposure to rain, helping to protect it from any water damage. Shiplap tongue and groove cladding also gives sheds an attractive appearance and has a robust and sturdy structure.
The third type of cladding is overlap; overlap is exactly how it sounds and rather than the panels interlocking like the shiplap and tongue and groove claddings overlap one another. This is a popular design and probably the most recognised if you are a newcomer to sheds. The overlap panels ensure that rain water runs off the shed creating a reliable design. It is the cheapest of the three claddings and perfect for any storage shed.
It is clear from the descriptions above that overlap panels do not have as many attributes and features as shiplap or tongue and groove cladding. It is also the most affordable type of garden sheds cladding and the reason for this is because it has the least protection from rainwater making it the least reliable.
The overlap design is still created to reduce the chances of rain water entering the shed which is why the panels overlap each other allowing the water to run off the shed rather than in. The most important factor and element that should be taken into account when deciding which cladding of shed to buy is what you are going to store in your shed and use your shed for.
This has a large impact on what type of shed cladding you will need for example if you are looking to store large equipment then I would not advise an overlap cladding. Overlap cladding is ideally suited to storing generic storage items such as garden furniture and tools but heavy equipment you may use for hobbies or sit down lawn mowers will be more suited to tongue and groove or shiplap sheds.
If you have a small budget overlap cladding is ideal as it is cheap and cheerful and does the job superbly. Like earlier in the article we stated it is not unreliable just not as enhanced as the other cladding types. I keep on reiterating this point as it is a debate that continues and overlap cladding seems to gain a large amount of negative views but for the affordability the sheds offer that are designed from this cladding it should be given credit rather than criticism.
Middle of the range is tongue and groove cladding and is less expensive than shiplap cladding but has an extensive range of benefits. Shiplap is seen as an expensive item so the middle of the range tongue and groove appeals to many, more than overlap cladding but if you are looking to store heavier and larger items it is a worthwhile cost. If you have the budget then shiplap is a lovely perk but not necessary for many people. Most people are suited to a tongue and groove cladding for the uses that they have for their garden sheds and this would be my advice if you are looking to buy a shed in the near future.
To summarise an overlap shed is ideal for generic garden items that you need to store with shiplap being a luxury if you can afford it whilst tongue and groove is affordability and quality rolled in to one.
