- Let me show you how to install shiplap on a wall with this simple DIY video. We wanted to make our walls really pop and Hollie had the idea to do shiplap. All I can say is for the low price, shiplap adds such a nice accent to your wall(s) that make them look like a million bucks!

Love that you're a real guy who learned as you went and shared that. I learned much more watching you than a master carpenter.
For real. I'm getting use to doing DIY stuff and it's comforting to learn from someone who appears to be about as capable as I am
Thank you very much, glad you learned so much. :-)
Currently doing this in two rooms. Instead of shooting the nails through the visible face of the shiplap, I've been shooting into the hidden part of the tongue (hidden after the next piece is put up), then just adding a nail into the face where absolutely needed to minimize filling holes.
That’s what I should’ve done, but didn’t learn that until later
I love how your daughter who is holding the shiplap for you while you talk about how to cutout around the wall switches is nodding in agreement with you at 2:54 as if she is thinking, "Yes, Dad you are correct with your plan. I'm here to make sure you do not lead the viewers astray. Great job." :)
Thanks so much for pointing that out, I loved that moment as well, and didn’t see it until you pointed it out to me, very happy dad moment for me :-)
It’s so simple but yes hard work with love needed🌈.
Love your family. Holy God bless you all.
Definitely not as difficult as I thought it was going to be, but definitely hard work, yes. Thank you so much.
Love seeing the family help out good stuff
Thank you, we do our best to include our kids in almost everything we do :)
Man you should sell playlists because your music is the bomb. Keep on doing what you doing have a great day
Nice work!!! Came out beautiful!!! Perfect!! 12ft pieces from Home Depot!! RYOBI for $150 can’t beat that!!
RYOBI are great tools!!!
Couldn’t agree more I have many of them and they have helped me complete many a project. Thanks so much
Thanks This gave me the confidence I need to shiplap
Awesome! So glad to hear it, good luck with your project 👍🏻
Cool. I could totally be friends with this guy. Nice job on your project. Will be starting mine soon.
Nice, I’m sure we could be friends too, I hope your project went good as well
Have you considered buying a strong neodimium magnet? - I use that instead of an expensive stud finder or the more "traditional" method of drilling 13 holes next to eachother until you hit wood. The idea of the magnet is you wave it around over the wall and eventually (~10 seconds) you will find a nail or screw which represents the center of your stud. To be on the safe side just move it up or down afterwards to make sure it is indeed a stud (to find another nail/ screw). That is a $5-10 extremely accurate stud finder.
Magnets don’t detect AC though. You wouldn’t want to drive a screw into a potential electrical cable running through a stud. Still around $10. Maybe $15. Always caution on the side of safety when anything electrical is involved!
Never heard of that, thanks for the suggestion, though
Looks good but as a professional electrician I'd highly suggest using a box extender around the electrical receptacle. This area between the finished surface and the finished surface around the electrical box must be covered to prevent igniting combustible parts like the shiplap. Very seldom is this code section enforced but it could;d prevent from starting a fire in your home.
You’re absolutely right, will have to correct that, thanks!
Thank you for this video!! Looks super easy, you explained very well. I’ll be doing this to my sons room!! I’m excited 🤗
@@thebarberettez TY!!
You very welcome, I hope your project went well, sorry for the late reply :-)
Best shiplap video I've seen yet. What is your opinion about using MDF instead of regular wood shiplap.?
Thanks so much. MDF is definitely more budget friendly but it can have more problems if it gets wet (it swells) vs. wood
Thanks for this helpful video. We are getting ready to do two small areas of shiplap in our home.
My pleasure, hope it helps
Great vid man, you actually pointed out mistakes you made that the majority of us would as well. Most don't show that valuable info and the for guys like myself who can rebuild just about anything that runs on fuel, but are completely lost when it comes to carpentry/home improvement, your vid was very informative and saved me from making same mistakes.
When it comes to working on cars and outdoor power equipment, I am very methodical and precise, but when it comes to home improvement, I am lost, which is pretty sad, considering my dad finished concrete 43 years, and could build a house from ground up, but I wasn't interested at the time, and he has been gone since 98 so I am basically lost.
Thanks so much, glad it help
I've got a tip for you ...nail thru the tongue so the nails won't show.
@@thebarberettez Nail one in the tongue and the other at the bottom. Half the nail holes to fill.
hahahaha thank u...
,
What is the tongue?
The tongue is the part of the joint that sticks out. Look up tongue and groove joint you'll see.@@arlemolina3035
Love seeing you have a little helper!😊
In Modern Living Room Everyone Using "SoundProof Curtains" That Stops Outside Noise by 80% (25 Db) Tested. Check Here: livesoundproof.com/best-soundproof-curtains/
Yep, trying to teach them what little I know, lol. Thanks.
With your jigsaw, tape off right next to the pencil lines so when you cut you won’t chip off those small pieces.
Great tip. Thanks.
Hilarious. Best shiplap installation video so far! 😁
Awesome, thanks so much
Thanks for the great tips.
Absolutely, I hope they help
Thank u so much for posting the video. Can you please show how did u finish the top cap that hides the shiplap top edge ?
I just cut the top piece to fit the space that was left and then if you have a gap you can caulk it or you can put a one by two over it also. You could also run a one by two along the ceiling and have the shiplap meet up to it at the top, and then caulk any small cracks.
nice job. Looks like a good little helper at 2:56 haha. i wish i could have a kid help me with this haha
Lol, thanks so much. Yeah they were a great help for the whole project :)
I wish we could see a real close shot of the proper way to nail the boards. Will it fit in the groove after the boards are put together?
Sorry for the late reply, yes, the edges all fit together nicely, hope that answers your question
Great job!! I'm getting ready to start this project.
Thank you, good luck with yours
And if you’re going to do an entire wall in Shiplap, start at the top and work your way down, that way you bury your cut at the bottom where it’s less visible.
👍🏻
Crazy how those same shiplap boards are now $17.94!! Insane how pretty much all building materials have gone up sooo much
I know, it IS crazy!
It looks very nice.
Thank you so much and thanks for watching
Nice video man. Keep up the good work
Thank you very much, glad you liked it
What did you use for the bottom board the first board that comes off the floor it looks a little thicker. Does it have a bead?
Bottom board was a 1x6 trim board that is used to cover the space between the space between the floor and the sheetrock behind it. Let me know if that doesn’t make sense.
Great video. Can I do this with crown moulding? It's a small wall we want to do this on just worried about the crown moulding. Also where did you get the shiplap again? Thanks again
Thanks, I’m not sure if you can do it with Crown molding because I’ve never done crown molding, sorry I couldn’t help more. I bought the shiplap at Home Depot.
Awesome! Great points and advice! I love all the shiplap!!
Thank you very much
great video love the little helpers!!
Thank you, trying to teach them a few things I know, L O L
Nice I’m doing this. Thanks for sharing 👍🏿
My pleasure, I hope it helps
If only shiplap was still that cheap! Haha. It's about double that now for the exact same stuff at HD.
Right?! What happened to material prices! They went through the roof!
Never heard of "Shiplap" until I saw your video. Nice job, however I like "Bead Board" myself for my small kitchenette. You certainly saved yourself some $$$ doing it yourself.👍
Yes, I’ve done bebird before. Also, it looks amazing as well. Thank you. I definitely did save some money by doing it myself.
Thanks! Very helpful. Looks awesome!!!
Thanks so much
Did you add anything like Liquid Nails behind the shiplap? Or are 2" brad nails sufficient? Curious because I foresee my wife changing her mind in a few years and wanting me to tear this out.
I just use the nails, otherwise you will destroy your sheet rock behind it and if you change your mind later, you will have to replace your sheet rock to
May be a stupid question, what size nails did you use with the nailer?
2 inch 16 gauge
So say you were renting... would you be able to remove this without damaging the wall? If you used a nail gun. You would have small holes I imagine but I wanted to do a frame over a large mural. How would you recommend removing it?
Great question, you are right you would have to fill holes afterward, but other than that I don’t know that it would cause much other damage to the wall unless you glued it or something. Best suggestion would be to put a block of wood under a crowbar when you remove it so that you are denting the wood, not the wall.
Great job. Quick question how long did you take to do this I did 2 walls almost indetical to yours with outlets and 2 circular lights.. took me 2hrs but my boss said I took too long? I feel like it's reasonable I had an outside corner so I had to do 45°cuts
You did better than me, this probably took me five or six hours to do the two walls I was doing and yes, there was a 45° in the corner. If you did it in two hours, good on you, if it looked good afterward.
Nice video. Where would you recommend getting the same type of shiplap you used? From a lumber yard or a homedepot? Thanks
I got mine at Home Depot
Great video and looks great on the wall. Question for you around the baseboards. Did you leave existing and just set the shiplap flush to the baseboard, or was that shiplap boards all the way to the floor?
great -Thank You!
Thank you, yes, I just stacked the shiplap on top of the baseboards
Do you think a 23 g pin nailer would work instead of a brad nailer? Great work btw!
@@thebarberettez sounds good, will give it a shot. Thanks!
As long as the nails are long enough, it probably would
How did you cap off the top with the 1x2 if the tongue is exposed on the top board?
The tongue is not exposed on the top board, I just cut it to length depending on how much space I had at the top
I appreciate your candor.
Thanks, I try to keep it real
Looks good but one thing missing. I am a seasoned installer and now a handyman by trade. As you add more thickness to the wall the original electrical plugs where set for a thickness of 1/2" for drywall now you are adding the thickness of the shiplap ??
You will need an extension on your electrical box to accommodate this extra extension. Most people don't know that and it could become not safe with the wires. I don't believe it's good to make it look easy to for the average person to install DIY until they know what they are doing....
@@thebarberettez Thanks for understanding , hope I wasn't too blunt...
Thanks for the advice
What size nail are you using?
16 ga
Helpful video. Thanks.
My pleasure glad it helped you
What gauge nail gun? And nail length?
It’s a 16 gauge nail gun using 2 1/2 inch finish nails 👍🏻
Great job! I am planning to work with shiplap for the first time this weekend. One question though, how did you affix the trim at the top? Did you nail it in at an angle from the top down? Thanks!
Well, once you have your very top piece up that fills in the last part of the sheet rock at the ceiling, you can put a one by two over top of it and if you nail all of your shiplap into studs, then you can just nail the Trim into the shiplap since the shiplap will be secure into studs
thx for video, if my wall is 14 ft long, and the longest piece of board is 12, how do I have them cut? each into 7?
I would stagger them so that you cut one 3 feet one 6 feet, 1 9 feet and 1 full size and then you won’t have lines that match up on the wall
Can you hang pictures on the actual ship lap itself?
Yes, you absolutely could, having said that it depends on how you nail your shiplap. For example, if you are nailing your shiplap into all of the studs, then they should be pretty sturdy for hanging pictures on, but within reason. I wouldn’t suggest hanging something more than maybe 30 to 40 pounds on it though unless you know hit a stud behind the shiplap
Heaps cheaper in US here in Australia it's $12 for a 2metre piece
That’s horrible, all the prices on materials have gone up insanely haven’t they?
Nice job ❤
Thank you, I'm glad you like it 🙏🏻
Why would you face nail versus nailing down through the tongue? It would make it cleaner and make the nails concealed
Much easier to only nail on the top, down at an angle through the tongue, bottom is held by the tongue and groove. No exposed nail holes, no putty or finish paint . My whole basement is tongue and groove shiplap. Not a single filled hole.
Barberettez took my baseboard off, and spaced them 1/4 off the floor. Face nailed along the bottom of the floor (which would be covered up after with baseboard), then nailed diagonally down in the tongue. All boards after that, sit the groove down on the tongue and again nail that row in the tongue. All ties together with no exposed nails.
Barberettez done
Barberettez AH! I just realized you have true cut shiplap, not tongue and groove. The shiplap you have is actually a rabbet, not tongue and groove. (Confused me cause you said tongue and groove at the beginning)
Yep, figured that out later and completed the project doing that
Great job
Thanks so much 😊
Oh great. I just bought some! It’s still in my car. 🤣🤣
Awesome I’m sure it will look great when you’re done
curious what brand of shiplap you used and did you paint it? what about the 1x2? was that pre-painted? thanks. looks great. going to do this instead of drywall on our remodel
I don’t remember the brand, all of it was primed, including the one by two. Thank you.
I love those floors! Do you happen to know what are those floors? Like the name the brand and where you got them?
I’m sorry, I can’t remember
I've had that Ryobi Airstrike nailer for two years now. I do a ton of woodworking projects. I think that's one of the best tools I've ever bought. Really impressed with it for a battery-powered nailer.
@@thebarberettez i bought the cheaper $100 brad nailer you guys think it will be enough to do a project like this? very early noob to DIY and wood working
Couldn’t agree more. I’ve had mine for the better part of five years now and it is a fantastic tool.
I don’t know why it wouldn’t work, just make sure you get long enough nails. The only thing that I’m unsure of is if that nailer can hold long enough nails because if you’re doing too short of nails, obviously it’s going to come out and not be as secure.
I have a window with bull-nose edges on the wall I want to apply shiplap. How would you handle that? Also, If the cieling is not flush, how to avoid a space? One more thing, I noticed in the fast part of video, you measured the length of the board each time you put one up. Why? I would think just a check with a leveler would be good. BTW...my wife will be installing.
Not sure about the bullnose, I’d have to see it, if the ceilings not flush, you just cut the piece to fit what space is left and caulk if necessary. I measured each time because my wall was not plumb so I was getting different lengths and I wanted them to all line up on the one side.
Does it matter if you install from top or bottom first? And if it is new construction, do you think it is okay to skip drywall and nail directly to the studs?
No, it’s totally your preference on whether you want to install from the bottom up or from the top down, as far as not using drywall you could, but it might make your house more echoey, and not a soundproof, I think she rock helps out a bit
Did you paint the shiplap boards?
Yes, we painted them white afterwards
Actually if your shiplap is going on just as decoration the better idea is to just mail the tongue, then the nail gets covered by the next piece you put on.
Thanks for the suggestion
Just a question, how did you end the top piece? you used tongue and groove correct? Did you have to cut off the tongue part to set the 1x2 on top? Thank, GREAT video!! Looks great also!!!
We are almost done with our wall. 18 feet long by 12 feet 2 inches tall. Our shiplap boards are a little over 7 inches wide. My wife laid it all out on AutoCAD first and just to double check, we sacrificed one 12' board by cutting it into 4 inches pieces. We stacked these up and tacked them to the wall to see how we would end at the top. The top board would have been skinny, which would have looked odd. So, we cut the bottom boards skinny and worked up to a mostly full board at the top. We could have started at the top with a full board and worked down, but since we were new to this we thought it would be easier to get the hang of it standing on the ground rather than twelve feet in the air.
Roger Baker good tip on avoid skinny pieces!
Thanks very much for the nice words. I just cut the piece, the same size as the space that was left over and then caulked any cracks if necessary.
How did you join where the walls meet? Did you cut a 45 on each or did you butt one up against the wall, and then butt the joining one up against the board?
Barberettez thank you.
Yep, I just butted one all the way up to the end, and then butted the other up to it
Do you wood fill the nail holes? or do you set the nailer to hit flush
Wood filler all the way
What size nails?
18 gauge finish nails, brand is Porter Cable
What's the best way to join these when your working on longer walls without showing the seams?
Be sure to stagger each row. It looks the best.
It's probably easier to just show the seems. It's a good look as long as they are uniform width and the boards are cut straight. Our wall is 18 feet wide. We bought 12 foot boards. We came up with a layout, starting from the right, the first row begins with an 11 foot board, next row behind with a 7 footer, third row begins with a 3 foooter. That way, we had very little waste. For example, first row is 11' board, 7' board. 2nd row is 7' board, 11' board. Third row is 3' board, 12' board, 3' board. Then repeat. So, our only waste is where we cut a foot off the 12' boards to make an 11' board.
By Long pieces or join the Mastad if you can, that way you can nail the two ends into the stud, and it will keep them from popping off the wall
Lol like a boss, and puts holes all in the center 😅😅😅😅
Yeah I did at first but learned not to do that after and had to use much less wood putty
Where I can get the shiplap?
I got mine at Home Depot
What Nailer from Ryobi did you use?
@@thebarberettez To build on this: Can you edit the video description to include all the tools you used, the details of the board sizes, and anything else you think would be helpful. Literally going to buy the same tools you are using if I can figure out what they are.
The 16 gauge nailer
Did u add the trim 1by 2 after you were done with shiplap ?
Yes, I did
Can you link that gun?
It’s a Ryobi 16 gauge nail gun. I got it at Home Depot and believe they still sell them there.
Hello, what model RYOBI air gun are you using please and thanks!
oh geez all set, just found your previous comment
😊
Great job! Did you stagger them?
Barberettez thank you for your quick response. We are going to do our basement. Appreciate your time! 😊
Barberettez thank you so much! My husband isn’t too happy about the job but I’ll show him your video to ease his mind.
I think non staggering looks cleaner if one piece of board is long enough.
I could have, but I ended up buying long enough pieces that were the same size or just a little bit longer than my wall so that I didn’t have to cut them
thats ship lap. tongue in groove is different.... no?
Correct
Nice
Thanks :)
Did you use glue or just the nails by themselves?
Just nails
That same shiplap board from your screenshot is literally double the price now from Home Depot 😢
I know! Material prices are insane now! It’s super annoying
Does shiplap collect dust????
@@thebarberettez thank you.
Yes
nice video, gj bud!
@@thebarberettez haha Good Job :D
Thanks so much
What type of nail gun did you use?
Ryobi 16 gauge nailer
Can you please link the nail gun? Thank you
It’s the Ryobi 16 gauge nailer at Home Depot, they still sell it there
Why did you nail the surface of the boards? Isn't the whole point of the tongue and groove so that you can hide all the nails? Lol
Yeah, I figured that out afterward
Lol so why did you say to put the nails in the groove and then go ahead and continue to put them on the outside of the shiplap you’ll be putty’n for days!
Yeah, it was a little more work to putty because I put more holes in the bottom, but I learned how to hide them later on
Can you tell me what size you got?
Barberettez
Thank you, I will try to do this on my bathroom wall
I think mine were the 6 inch wide ones and technically they’re 5 1/4 I think
I'm pretty sure shiplap doesn't have a tongue and groove, it's more of an overlap
It depends on the type you use, through a little bit of research I found out that there are three different types of tongue and groove wood that can be called shiplap or tongue and groove
@thebarberettez it's confusing. There's nickel gap, ship lap. Etc
Yep right, always learning…#amiright ?
Jesus Christ died for all of our sins. He died the death we all deserved. He was the perfect one who never sinned once, but he loved us so much he decided to die for us so our sins would be paid for and we can enter the Kingdom of Heaven before God the Father blamelessly. He is the living son of God who wants to know us and have a personal relationship with us. No matter what you have done no matter how far gone you think you are Jesus can and will save you. All you have to do is confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior. Believe that he died on the cross for your sins and had a bodily resurrection 3 days later. We cannot be saved by our works but by faith in Christ alone. Repent and turn to Christ. You will have joy, happiness, love, and peace beyond understanding.😊
Amen Zachary!
Was this a brad nailer or a finish nailer you used?
In one post you said you used a 18gauge nails. And in this post you said you used a finish nailer. Which one is it ? And is there any preference to which gauge to use properly for Shiplap ? Thanks
Finish nailer, I believe
I just watched another guy say you shouldn't put the nail in that bottom section because that area is thinner and weak.
@@thebarberettez Thanks for the response. Have you nailed heavy stuff to it?
@@thebarberettez Thanks
Probably good advice
You were supposed to nail on the tongue and groove so there were not visible
Looks like the same stuff I installed for a customer last week. Had no problems putting nails through the top and covering them up.
Yep I figured that out later
gj:)
😊
Get try
👍🏻
They are called extension rings, my man! Go to your big box store electrical department and buy the proper depth plaster extension rings for all your electrical boxes. Bring it out to surface of wood because the jake legged crap you are doing will not last long!
Thanks for the advice
Going to look stupid as hell stopping half way up the wall! Cap it off with chair rail
That’s what we did. We kept it off with the one by two and it looks pretty good I think.
Maybe when you learn how to do this you should post, until then practice!!!!
I like to show people that I make mistakes and what I make mistakes on so they don’t have to
I’m 14 and I had to do this in the Carolinas to help my brother in a job and then I had just done some on 1 wall in my moms kitchen and used the same 1x2x12 as trim but I ran ours to the roof and just put trim around corners and a window she wanted done.
Nice, good for you! Knowing how to do carpentry is a great skill
what size guage is your nail gun?
16 ga
This is more like a how not to install shiplap
Oh? Why do you say that?
