Wainscoting
Preview Our Project Gallery
Wainscoting is one of the most elegant and enduring ways to elevate a room — adding visual structure, texture, and timeless character to your walls. At Raleigh Woodworks, we design and install custom wainscoting that enhances your space while tying together other architectural features like crown molding, door trim, and baseboards.
While accent walls are typically one feature wall that draws attention with bold design (such as board and batten, vertical slats, or a grid layout), wainscoting is a lower-wall treatment that wraps around all or multiple walls in a room, usually from the baseboard to about chair-rail height (or higher, depending on style). Wainscoting adds architectural charm without overwhelming the room and works beautifully in formal dining rooms, entryways, staircases, hallways, and primary suites.
Custom wainscoting options include:
Picture frame molding
Raised or recessed panel wainscoting
Shaker or Craftsman styles
Beadboard or tongue-and-groove paneling
Staircase or hallway wall paneling
Every design is custom-measured and installed with precision, using high-quality materials and a painter-ready finish. Whether you want something classic and symmetrical or more modern and minimal, we’ll help you choose a style that complements your home’s architecture and enhances the overall design.
Let us help you create walls that feel polished, intentional, and anything but builder-basic — with custom wainscoting crafted in Raleigh and built to last.
