Thanks for the calculation method! Do you have a suggestion if your baseboard is tile? (Trying to avoid removing it but am afraid if I place a 1x3 on top it’ll stick out) is your baseboard the same depth as your molding pieces? Did you use a water-treated molding for the baseboard in case of overflowing toilets or water on the floor? Thanks!

@LindiandRuss 3 жыл бұрын

We had a rubber trim around the baseboard (a commercial product), but yet they were the same width. If I had tile, I would probably pop it off and cover it with new baseboard.

I’m planning on doing this in a bathroom that has a 3-sided vikrell surround tub and was planning on taking the board & batten all the way to the edge of the vikrell and just caulking between the joint and using killz primer on that first piece of wood directly against the tub. Do you know if this would work fine or if there’s any regulation against it? Or if I’d just need to use a sort of composite material instead of cheap plywood.

@LindiandRuss Жыл бұрын

In regards to regulations you would need to check your local area's codes/rules (province/country/state/etc). I (Russel) personally like to tile past the tub surround as I find water always finds its way to the sides of the tub, against the surround and down the face of the tube. I would be weary of having wood that close to a wet area. But if you properly seal and protect the wood you might be ok? You could also check with a local builder to see what they recommend.

I’m curious how you did the board & batten without removing the sink vanity. Did you butt the boards up to the sink? Is there a concern with them getting soaked from the sink water? I’d like to do the same in my bathroom but don’t really want to remove the sink vanity. Can you run a board along the vanity making a bottom “border”?

@LindiandRuss 10 ай бұрын

We didn't remove the vanity. You can just run the boards up to the vanity. We would suggest using a paint friendly bathroom caulking around the perimeter to seal and prevent water from getting to the boards. Believe DAP has some products that would work for this.

Question about spacing the vertical molding pieces. I understand the calculation you showcased in your video, but how should the spacing be if each wall is a different length? I am installing board and batten through out my downstairs and every wall is a different length. how should I go about determing the appropriate distance inbetween vertical moldings? I am currently in the design phase and have settled on a distance between vertical moldings of 24 inches. When I reach a corner, I plan to install a vertical molding on each side of the corner and then start my 24 inch spacing again from the corner. I hope that description makes sense... Watching your video and seeing the calculation, I understand how that would work for 1 wall or a small room, but cannot think how to apply it to a large irregular shaped space. HEEEELLLLPPPPP

RedMercury hey, so I would just do the same calculations for the next wall, and use a spacing that is as close as possible for the other walls. So if 22” makes sense, go with that. Honestly people will never notice the difference when you have full walls done, as long as the spacing on those walls is equal. You can also gain some space by not adding another piece in the corner (which we did in one of these bathrooms).

Did you remove your toilet? We just realized that we don't have enough space between the wall and the toilet. 😔

I think when you can bring the boards down behind the toilet it looks better, but in this space we didn’t remove the toilet and didn’t have space, so we actually ended the boards above the toilet. You might be able to see in some of the room shots at the end. Just make sure the boards are high enough so that you can easily remove the tank lid before you nail them down. Hope that helps!

You show how to install but you don't tell how to figure spacing between the battens? Why not?

You must not have watched the whole video! We shared exactly how to do the measurements :) Watch again to see the math equations!

It’s so true!! It’s actually his grandfather’s! But it makes way less mess and it faster to bring it in the space, so sometimes he chooses it over the big guy!
