Cedar Cladding & Lining Boards
Western Red Cedar Lining for Ceilings, Feature Walls and Eaves
Lining an alfresco ceiling, panelling a feature wall, or finishing the eaves on a new build? Cedar lining boards give a room or an outdoor area the warm red-brown tone and fine grain of Western Red Cedar. We stock shiplap, V-joint and castellation profiles, from light 84×9 lining up to 176×18 shiplap VJ.
Thin Shiplap for Ceilings
For ceilings and soffits, the 9mm shiplap boards in 84×9 and 133×9 keep the weight down overhead. The rebated edges overlap, so each board covers the fixing line of the last and the ceiling reads as clean, continuous lines.
V-Joint and Castellation for Feature Walls
The profile sets the look. V-joint in 127×18, 130×18 and the 176×18 shiplap VJ adds a groove at every board for a classic panelled wall. Castellation in 78×18 and 78×26 creates a stepped, three-dimensional face for statement walls and entries. Trim the edges and corners with matching cedar mouldings, such as scotia and external angle.
Taking Cedar Outside
The same boards carry through to the exterior. For weatherboards, shingles and full facades, see our western red cedar cladding range. If the wall is going to be painted, compare our internal pine lining boards, or browse hardwood lining boards for a denser native timber face.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between cladding and lining?
Cladding is the external skin of a building that keeps the weather out. Lining covers internal walls and ceilings, or sheltered areas such as eaves and alfresco ceilings.
Can cedar be used for ceilings?
Yes. Cedar is a popular ceiling lining for alfresco areas, verandas and living rooms. The 9mm shiplap boards are the lighter choice for overhead work.
What is shiplap cedar?
Shiplap is a board with a rebate along each edge, so neighbouring boards overlap. The overlap hides the joint and gives a wall or ceiling clean, even lines.
How do you finish cedar lining boards?
Indoors, cedar lining can be left raw, clear-coated, oiled or stained. Outdoors under cover, an oil or stain helps keep the colour from weathering to grey.
