What is Shiplap?
Even though shiplap is often used inside and outside of homes due to its durability against damage and wear, many homeowners aren’t aware of what shiplap is or where it came from. Shiplap is essentially a type of wood that used to be used to waterproof ships. Each board is unique with features including grooves on the top and bottom of each board that seals the pieces when they overlap with one another. In homes, shiplap is useful in creating an affordable and yet very realistic rustic aesthetic. Shiplap can add dimensional and depth to ordinary walls and the element of work to help the space feel cozier and more modern depending on the design of the material. Shiplap is also useful at hiding unsightly damage and dings on walls and may be a better option over fixing the wall itself.
When you hire Altitude Coatings and Solutions to install your shiplap, we offer vertical and horizontal installation and in a variety of colors and shades so it will complement the rest of the home.
Why Get Professionals to Install Your Shiplap?
Like with many other home improvement projects, it can be easy to unknowingly get in over your head. This can be especially true when it comes to installing shiplap. To have this kind of project done correctly so that it is durable and lasts for many years, the installation must be done properly and carefully. Hiring professionals ensures this happens, because they have the knowledge and the tools to achieve accuracy throughout the entire process. It only takes one wrong cut, or one misplaced board to make the whole project a mess, and more of a fixer-upper than an improvement project.
