West Yorkshire is a county of millstone-grit terraces, back-to-backs and substantial Victorian villas. That is exactly the kind of building stock a run of wall panelling has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
A run of wall panelling is a permanent part of the building, so it is worth setting out properly. We take the survey, agree the drawings, machine the parts in the workshop and fit in West Yorkshire in one visit wherever the programme allows.
How we build it
Timber is chosen for the room it is going into. Painted work is built in tulipwood and moisture-resistant MDF because they hold a crisp arris and take a sprayed finish without grain rise. Where the grain is meant to be seen we use European oak, walnut or ash, with veneers laid so the figure runs continuously across a set of doors.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

Straight answers
Wall Panelling & Wainscoting in West Yorkshire — common questions
Which panelling style suits a modern house?
Board and batten or a simple square shaker grid. Both are geometric and flat, which reads contemporary. Raised and fielded panels look wrong outside a period setting.
Is it fixed to the wall or built as panels?
Both methods work. On a flat wall we fix rails and stiles directly. On an uneven wall a backing board goes on first, which costs a little more but gives a perfectly flat face.
What material do you use?
Moisture-resistant MDF for painted work. It has no grain to raise, takes a crisp arris and will not move. Solid timber panelling is available for a natural finish but needs framing that allows the panels to move.
Will it make the room feel smaller?
It adds 18 to 25mm to the wall, which nobody notices. Visually, painting the panelling the same colour as the wall above makes the room feel larger, not smaller.
Can you match existing joinery in the house?
Yes. We take a profile of the existing skirting, architrave or door and either match it from stock cutters or have a cutter ground so the new work runs identically. Matching an old paint colour is straightforward; matching aged oak takes a sample panel and a couple of attempts, which we build into the programme.
