The ârealâ shiplap boards cost $8.22/each, so it would have cost us over $400 to panel the room.ulia-I love the look and the tutorial!

Shiplap is typically cut from pine or other inexpensive woods so costs stay low. Assuming a price of $1.00 per board-foot for a standard-grade product, $100 worth of shiplap siding will cover a 10-foot by 10-foot exterior wall.ecause shiplap is almost always a natural wood product, care must be taken to protect the siding from the elements. Unless the siding has been specially treated before delivery, the wood may need to be sealed or painted and it may need to be re-sealed or re-painted every two to five years.
