Wainscot wall panelling is a decorative feature that has been used in interior design for centuries. It involves covering the lower portion of a wall with wooden panelling, typically up to about one-third or one-half of the wall's height. With our cut-to-size wainscot panelling kits all you need to do is measure your wall, order and install, we do all the calculations and cutting for you! Read More
The term "wainscot" is derived from the German words "wand" (wall) and "schotten" (to board or line with wood). Historically, wainscoting was used as a practical solution to insulate and protect the lower part of walls from moisture, damage from furniture, and general wear and tear.
Beyond its functional and aesthetic purposes, wainscot panelling can also serve as a design element to create visual interest and define different spaces within a room. For example, it can be used to separate an entryway from a living area or to create the illusion of separate zones within an open-concept layout.
Wainscot panelling is a classic and versatile design feature that can add warmth, texture, and visual interest to any room in a home or commercial space.
Wainscot Wall Panelling with a Dado Rail
A dado rail adds a traditional touch to your half-height panelling and makes the perfect wainscot cap. A wainscot cap gives the panelling a more traditional, classic look than shaker wall panelling on its own.
Many of our customers add a wainscot cap to their hallway panelling and paint the top half of the wall a complementary neutral colour. If you're planning on panelling your bathroom or other high-humidity areas we recommend using our Custom Height Bathroom Wall Panelling with a Dado Rail which includes moisture-resistant MDF.

I can’t recommend this company enough, I placed a custom measured order but got my sizes mixed up which I didn’t even notice. Gavin called me to check my sizes before cutting as by looking at them they thought they were wrong. What other company would call you to say you have made a mistake, I found Gavin extremely helpful and friendly 10/10 for customer service. Product arrived extremely well packaged and in perfect condition. Will definitely be using again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to family and friends

The order I received was incorrect, but good customer services
The order I received was incorrect, but after speaking to customer services they were quick to rectify the problem and I received my correct order within 48 hours.
I did email at first but no-one got back to me until 9 days later (and it wasn't a helpful response - even though the order had already been sorted by someone else via the phone). If you have issues definitely call instead of emailing.

Really useful service, well priced and quiet easy to use
Simple, easy to follow ordering process (although my order was fairly basic tbh), precisely cut and delivered carefully packaged. I have more complicated designs in the future which I will order here which might be good test of their capabilities, but so far I have been very happy with what they offer and their service.
