Family Room Built In Cabinet

This large family room was beautiful before the built in, but looks even better after.

The room had shiplap on the fireplace wall, but over 16 feet of open wall that the TV was situated in front of.

Taking shape! The base cabinet is over 13 feet long! Cabinet carcass is installed, and just waiting for paint.

Only thing left to do was to install the base cabinet doors.

We think the cabinet turned out great. Spray ‘n Coat Painting did a fantastic job on the cabinet base and doors.

Shiplap Siding with Cased Windows

Shiplap siding is a popular finish these days. It helps create some depth and texture without having to introduce a new color.

Shiplap was traditionally used for walls. It’s overlapping joints helped to keep air and water from moving through it. The “lap” from “shiplap” refers to the overlap of the joints.

When installed, the joint creates a small (usually 1/4 inch or less) gap between the individual wood planks.

Here is a before picture.

When installed on walls that have windows, the windows must be cased first. If the windows are not cased, the shiplap will not have anything to butt against.
