Shiplap vs. Overlap

Overlap and Shiplap are essentially two different types of shed cladding. Cladding is simply the covering of your building. Overlap cladding is in the name, the boards overlap one another to create a traditional and rustic look. The overlapping design allows rainwater run-off and ensures your belongings are kept dry from the rain. This watertight design will protect from the wet British weather, however overlap cladding isn’t airtight. This means your shed could be susceptible to draughts and moisture.

Shiplap cladding consists of multiple boards of timber which create a flush panel. Shiplap cladding features a recess at the top of the individual boards which helps water run-off, offering protection against the elements. Not only is shiplap cladding watertight like overlap cladding, but it also has the added benefit of being airtight, meaning belongings are much less at the risk of draughts and dampness. This means shiplap sheds are an ideal choice if you intend on spending time in your shed, as a workshop for example, or are planning to store items that could not risk coming into contact with any moisture. Another added benefit is its aesthetically pleasing smooth exterior, coupled with smooth interior panels, creating a high standard of finish both on the inside and outside of the building. This gives a more premium feel to your garden.
