What kind of edges are milled on the siding?

0

All of our siding comes with what is called a shiplap edge. This allows the siding to overlap at each joint. When nailed properly, this provides a good water tight joint. However, be careful to follow the mill’s nailing instructions printed on the back side of each panel. Too tight of a fit will result in buckling when the siding expands due to weather changes. Too lose a fit and you will lose your water resistant joint. Always consult with current building codes for proper nailing procedures.
