How do you waney the edge cladding?
Begin at the bottom, ensuring that the first board is level and the waney edge is facing down. Use a 19/25mm strip (depending on the thickness of the board) behind the lower edge of the bottom board for support. Overlap subsequent boards by 50 – 65mm. It is important not to reduce the recommended overlap.
What do you attach cladding to?
Attaching the Cladding Once your wall is prepared and the cladding itself is ready, you will need to attach battens to the wall. Battens are pieces of treated timber used to support the cladding – these will need to be nailed to the wall before you attach it.
Can you join shiplap cladding?
Fixing shiplap cladding Never nail through the lap joint. For boards over 150mm, use two fixings, with the second located a further 65 – 75mm above the first to allow for some dimensional movement. Leave a gap of approximately 2mm between each of the subsequent boards to allow for possible expansion.
Can you glue tongue and groove to wall?
The boards can be glued or nailed to the walls, or both. I recommend a paneling adhesive and toothed trowel, or a paneling adhesive applied from a caulking gun. The last piece, next to the intersecting wall, should be cut to size and its tongue slipped into the groove of the adjacent board.
What’s the difference between Feather Edge and rough sawn cladding?
Feather edge is one of the cheapest claddings we supply because it doesn’t need machining to a profile, the timber is rough sawn. Our two standard profiles of feather edge cladding are IWC9 and IWC10. They both run from 25mm thick down to 9mm, the only real difference is the width – IWC9 is 200m wide whereas IWC10 is 150mm.
