What Is Wainscoting?
Wainscoting is a decorative wall treatment applied to the lower or full height of a wall. Used today primarily as an architectural feature, it adds character, depth, and a custom feel to any room. It works in entryways, dining rooms, living rooms, hallways, mudrooms, bedrooms, and home offices.

Types of Wainscoting We Install
- Raised Panel Wainscoting — Traditional three-dimensional panels. Ideal for formal dining rooms and entryways.
- Flat Panel (Recessed) Wainscoting — Clean modern look. Works in traditional and contemporary homes.
- Board & Batten — Alternating vertical boards and battens. Popular farmhouse and transitional style.
- Beadboard — Tongue-and-groove panels. Common in bathrooms and mudrooms.
- Full-Height Panel Wainscoting — Floor-to-ceiling paneling. One of the most dramatic upgrades you can make to any room.
How Much Does Wainscoting Cost to Install?
Wainscoting cost depends on several factors:
- Style — Raised panel and full-height wainscoting involve more material and labor than beadboard or board & batten.
- Room size — Larger rooms require more linear footage of material and more installation time.
- Ceiling height — Taller ceilings mean more material for full-height installations.
- Profile complexity — Custom moulding profiles and layered details add to the scope of work.
- Additional trim — Adding crown molding or chair rail to complement the wainscoting affects total cost.
We provide free, no-obligation estimates for every project. We come to your home, walk through the options, and give you a clear honest number before any work begins.
How Long Does Wainscoting Installation Take?
How long the work takes depends on room size and the style being installed. We protect your floors and furniture throughout and clean up completely when we're done.
