Product Information

Full details

The Double Shiplap Cladding by SAM Mouldings is an ideal choice for homeowners and contractors seeking a durable, low-maintenance exterior finish for residential buildings or outbuildings. It provides a clean, contemporary aesthetic with its wide 294mm profile, significantly speeding up coverage time on large surface areas. While the 4.88m length is perfect for long, uninterrupted runs, users should be aware that the material's dimensions require careful planning for transport and handling to prevent surface damage before installation.

FAQs

Can this cladding be painted?

This product is designed to be maintenance-free and typically does not require painting. Consult the manufacturer guidelines before applying any coating.

What is the thickness of each board?

Each board is 12mm thick, providing a balance between durability and ease of installation.

Is this suitable for coastal environments?

Yes, its weather-resistant properties make it suitable for exterior use, including coastal regions, provided correct installation practices are followed.

How many boards do I need for my wall?

Measure the total area height and divide by the effective cover width of the board (account for the overlap). It is recommended to add 10% for waste.

What tools are needed for installation?

Standard woodworking tools including a fine-toothed saw for cutting, a spirit level, and appropriate exterior-grade fixings.

Troubleshooting

Visible gaps between boards

Ensure the boards are fully engaged in the shiplap profile and that the supporting battens are perfectly level.

Surface scuffs or minor marks

Clean the area with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive scouring pads that may dull the finish.

Difficulty in handling 4.88m lengths

Always carry the boards on their edge to provide maximum rigidity and enlist a second person for safer maneuvering.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality weather resistance
  • Time-saving installation due to wide profile
  • Requires virtually no ongoing maintenance
  • Provides a clean, modern architectural look

Cons

  • Requires careful planning for transportation due to 4.88m length
  • Less flexible than narrow cladding boards
  • Not intended for structural load-bearing use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure your sub-structure (timber battens) is level and plumb before fixing the boards. Use appropriate spacing between battens to support the 12mm thickness of the cladding properly.

Compatibility: This cladding is compatible with standard exterior building substrates. Ensure that any breather membrane used behind the cladding is installed correctly to allow for proper airflow.

Care: The product is designed to be low maintenance. To clean, simply use a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water to remove dust, dirt, or organic growth. Avoid using high-pressure washers, which can damage the surface finish or drive water into the joints.
