Clapboard Siding Pictures

Most homes look great with clapboard siding.  It has been around for centuries and is still the most popular home siding sold today! 

Clapboard siding runs horizontally across the house from end to end. Looks like the old sailing ships of yesteryear. Clapboard siding is sometimes called "Ship Lap" siding because of this.

Clapboard siding is the most used home siding in America. And it has been for over a hundred years.

Clapboard siding is one of the oldest home siding styles around. It was used in Europe for centuries mainly because there were so many people who worked in shipyards working on sailing ships.

Clapboard siding can be used with many other siding types to create distinctive design styles. 

Clapboard comes in many different textures, from smooth finish that looks like fresh painted planks, to rough hand sawn texture that looks exactly like fresh sawn cedar planks.
