Shiplap Bathroom Wall And Ceiling
Using pine wood wood planed down to 1 4 inch.
Shiplap bathroom wall and ceiling. White wooden shiplap boards were used on this country style bathroom vanity area which definitely complements the shaker style vanity cabinets the horizontal shiplap boards run from the backsplash up to the ceiling and the side edge was lined with a wooden trip to help seal the edges. Sure a bathroom is just a bathroom but everyone wants theirs to look and feel good. We will be going over original shiplap for the 1930s. When installing shiplap over drywall start with battens on finished ceilings family handyman if you re installing tongue and groove boards over drywall or plaster especially it s a good idea to install 1x2 battens and fasten them directly to the framing with 2 1 2 in.
Shiplap can be a fantastic added feature in a bathroom when it is applied as a wainscoting application ceiling sink backsplash or accent wall. I am doing a woos slat ceiling in bathroom. Another great feature about shiplap is that it can be painted. I have stained wood with a brown then a grey stain followed by wiping down with a white deck stain.
We have hired a contractor to re do out bathroom and i want him to do a shiplap wall treatment. Having shiplap on the walls provides texture and character. Not only is it a budget friendly home project but it adds a large amount of texture color and dimension for a minimum amount of money and time.
