Anyone got a rough idea how much tongue+groove wood is and what sort of lengths/widths it comes in?
I'm thinking of building a shed and want to do a rough calculation of price.
(I already have the wood for the floor/roof and have roofing felt etc)

You mean shiplap cladding? IIRC Wickes have packs of 5x2m lengths for a tenner or thereabouts.
Yup.
Any idea of the width? About 4"?

Roundabout that yes.
5", and 6" are the most common (that's shiplap rather than T&G). Thickness is 12mm for the cheaper stuff or 19mm for better quality.
Lengths, typically available from 3.3 to 5m at a timber yard.
Work out how much you think you need, then order 1.4 times that amount. (don't ask how I know!) ;-)
