Frequently Asked Questions
'Tongue and groove' cladding refers to the interlocking structure of timber boards, used in the construction of sheds and other garden buildings. Being the most popular style of cladding, the name ‘tongue and groove’ refers to the shape of the boards, which are able to fix together perfectly to provide a strong and durable structure. This structure is therefore very useful in the construction of sheds, particularly ones that store heavy and expensive items including garden machinery and tools, as the interlocking formation makes it much harder to break into. Alongside this added strength, the system also prevents water from penetrating into the wood. This means a shed made from tongue and groove cladding is protected from water damage, protecting tools and machinery, and rot.
Shiplap cladding has a long history of being used in construction. Today it continues to be a key material used in building, both internally and externally. The name ‘shiplap’ refers to the way the timber boards overlap each other. The way each board has a ‘rabbet’ (recess) cut into both the top and bottom of each board allows them to be slotted together with no gaps providing a watertight structure. This means that the chance of any water leakage is very minimal, which is why this method was used in the construction of boats - hence the term ‘shiplap’.
Shiplap cladding and ‘tongue and groove’ have a very similar look, but the main difference is the longer ‘lip’ on the shiplap cladding. This lip is an additional layer of protection against rainfall and moisture, which offers better rainwater resistance than that of the tongue and groove. This in many ways makes shiplap a better choice for cladding, particularly for sheds, as water is able to run off the material much better than tongue and groove-style planks, acting as a superior defence against potential water damage. Depending on the application of your cladding, we would tend to recommend shiplap timber for this reason.
Most shiplap planks are made from real wood. But, as ‘shiplap’ refers to the way a board has been constructed, with the addition of a recess to allow the boards to slot together, other types of material can also be referred to as shiplap. This includes materials such as pine and plywood.
