BOARD & BATTEN / PANEL SIDING

Modern Farmhouse Curb Appeal

Board-and-batten siding uses wide vertical panels with narrow battens over the seams, creating strong vertical lines that make a home feel taller and more modern. It is the signature look of today’s modern farmhouse style.

We install panel siding in fiber cement, engineered wood and vinyl, and we often combine it with lap siding, cedar accents and black windows for a custom design. Vertical siding needs careful attention to horizontal joints and flashing, and we detail those to shed water properly.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is board and batten siding?

It is a vertical siding style made of wide boards or panels with narrow strips (battens) covering the joints. Today it is usually installed with fiber cement, engineered wood or vinyl instead of solid wood.

Which material is best for board and batten?

Fiber cement offers excellent durability and fire resistance, engineered wood is lighter with a natural look, and vinyl is the most budget-friendly. We will help you compare them for your home.

Can board and batten be used with other siding?

Absolutely. A very popular design uses board and batten on gables or the front of the home with horizontal lap siding elsewhere.

Does vertical siding need special installation?

Yes. Vertical panels need proper backing for fastening and flashed horizontal joints so water drains out instead of behind the siding. We plan these details before installation.
