Defined by simplicity, shiplap timber ceilings never go out of style. With quick and easy tongue and groove installation and the flexibility to be installed vertically or horizontally, our prefinished shiplap timber lining boards transform interior and alfresco ceilings, soffits and eaves.

THE CORE OF AUSTRALIAN TIMBER CEILINGS
Our heartwood.
See the forest for the trees.
In design and construction, options can overwhelm.
We’ve worked hard to ‘dampen the noise’ around sampling and specifying timber features by distilling our product range into a simple yet versatile modularised framework: select timber species, shape and stain – ultimately making our workshop your design sandpit.
Everything under one ceiling.
With a world rushing towards mass production, we’ve gone against the grain, holding the profound belief that it’s not about quantity, but quality – only truly achievable by having end-to-end control and capability in-house.
We take pride in liaising directly with all stakeholders through a project’s lifecycle, from concept to post-installation support. In our experience, this collaborative and accountable way of working mitigates common building complexities, ensuring limited lead times and satisfying budget mandates.
From little acorns, mighty oaks grow.
Stemming from three generations in woodcraft, Australian Timber Ceilings proudly stands as an independent, family-owned and operated workshop.
Timeless principles and endless pioneering practices are deeply engrained in our humble but hungry team. This commitment is reflected in the continual refinement of our crafting and colouring capabilities and our steadfast reputation as a dependable partner in the design and build community.
