Board & Batten Siding in New Plymouth, ID
New Plymouth, quiet Payette County town on the valley's western edge
Board and batten is the vertical siding look behind the modern-farmhouse style sweeping through Treasure Valley neighborhoods — wide boards or panels run vertically with narrow battens covering the seams, creating bold, clean vertical lines. It can clad a whole home for a striking, contemporary statement, or accent gables, entries, and a single elevation to add depth against horizontal lap.
We install board and batten in fiber cement and engineered wood, pre-finished or field-painted, with the trim and layout integration that makes the vertical lines read crisp and intentional rather than busy. The detail that separates a good board-and-batten job from a sloppy one is consistent batten spacing and clean terminations — get those right and the facade looks designed; get them wrong and it looks like an afterthought.
Material choice matters here because the vertical orientation and exposed batten edges put a premium on dimensional stability. Fiber cement and engineered wood both hold the profile well and resist the splitting, warping, and rot that quickly ruin solid-wood battens in our dry-heat-to-deep-freeze climate, so the lines stay straight and the seams stay tight season after season.
This is the right fit for owners chasing modern-farmhouse curb appeal — whether as a full exterior, a contrasting upper-gable accent, or a feature wall paired with lap siding below. We'll plan the layout, help you choose a palette that ages well, and execute the spacing so it looks deliberate.

Our process
How board & batten siding works in New Plymouth
- 01
Design & layout
We plan the board-and-batten spacing, decide whether it's a full exterior or a gable/accent application, and lay out the battens so the vertical lines look intentional.
- 02
Material & finish selection
We help you choose fiber cement or engineered wood and pre-finished versus field-painted, with a palette that suits the modern-farmhouse look and ages well.
- 03
Tear-off & barrier
Old siding comes off where needed, the wall is inspected and repaired, and a weather-resistive barrier and flashing are installed.
- 04
Board & batten install
Boards and battens are installed to manufacturer spec with consistent spacing and clean terminations for crisp vertical lines.
- 05
Trim, seal & finish
We integrate trim, seal the joints, finish the color, and tie any accent application cleanly into the surrounding siding.
- 06
Cleanup & walkthrough
A magnetic nail sweep clears the site and we walk the finished facade with you before closing out.
Every New Plymouth job includes pulling any permit Payette County requires and a full clean-up — we leave your home tight, weather-sealed, and looking sharp.
Working in New Plymouth
New Plymouth, quiet Payette County town on the valley's western edge
New Plymouth is a small Payette County community in farm and orchard country between Fruitland and Emmett, at the western edge of the Treasure Valley, with its distinctive horseshoe-shaped main thoroughfare. Its modest older homes and rural character are typical of the area's agricultural communities, with housing that spans early ranch-style builds to mid-century bungalows.
New Plymouth's older housing stock and rural setting mean siding and windows on many homes haven't been replaced since original construction. The region's mix of summer heat, cold winters, and agricultural irrigation humidity makes durable, well-sealed exteriors especially important, and open ag exposure adds wind and dust to the wear on aging siding.

Will you clean up after board & batten siding in New Plymouth?
Always. Every New Plymouth job ends with a full clean-up — we haul away the old materials and packaging and leave your Payette County home tidy and protected.
Can board and batten be just an accent?
Yes — many homeowners use it on gables, entries, or a single elevation paired with lap siding elsewhere for contrast and depth. We can do a full board-and-batten exterior or a targeted accent, and we'll plan the layout either way so it reads deliberate.
What material do you use for board and batten?
Most often fiber cement or engineered wood. Both hold the vertical profile and exposed batten edges well and resist the splitting, warping, and rot that quickly ruin solid-wood battens in our dry, freeze-thaw climate, so the lines stay crisp.
How is the spacing decided?
We plan batten spacing to the proportions of the home and the look you're after, keeping it consistent across the facade with clean terminations at corners and openings. Consistent spacing is the single biggest factor in whether board and batten looks designed or like an afterthought.
