Is it a good idea to put shiplap in a bathroom?
Can shiplap be used in a bathroom? Yes–as with all wood trim or wood material in potentially high-moisture locations, the products will hold up so long as they have been sealed properly. If proper initial sealing and regular inspection and maintenance are employed, shiplap in a bathroom will last for a long, long time.

Do you start shiplap from top or bottom?
Going from the bottom up is the way to go! Whether you are using tongue and groove boards or true rabbit edge shiplap – the process is the same. Once the next level board is in place insert a few of the paint sticks for an even gap between the two boards.
