Shadow-box, board and batten, beadboard and raised panel walls that add depth, protection and character.
Paneled walls give a room texture, depth and a handcrafted feel. Wainscoting protects the lower wall from scuffs, board and batten gives a clean modern farmhouse look, and raised panels bring a formal traditional feel. Done well, paneling makes a plain room memorable.
We lay out panels to balance on each wall, avoid awkward slivers at corners and line up with windows, doors and outlets. We build with solid wood or MDF, with rails, stiles and caps sized to the room, then prepare everything for paint or stain.
Panel widths, rail heights and spacing should look even and avoid cutting through a window or switch. We draw the layout on the wall before building.
Shadow box and picture frame molding suit dining rooms and halls. Board and batten and beadboard suit mudrooms, baths and farmhouse style. Raised panels suit formal rooms.
Paneling can run floor to ceiling, stop at a chair rail height or cover a single feature wall. We help you decide where it will look best.
Paneling looks richest in a semi-gloss or satin paint, or in stain on solid wood. We help you choose colors and sheens that suit the room.
