Custom accent wallsA little more character for the rooms you live in.
Board and batten, geometric trim, vertical slats and painted paneling. We plan the layout with you, install the trim, and paint it with the wall so it looks built in.
Serving Madison, Fitchburg, Verona, Middleton, Sun Prairie and the rest of Dane County.

Four walls, four personalities
Real photos from our own projects. Each wall started as a plain painted surface.
Vertical Paneling
Evenly spaced boards run the full length of a long wall, all in one soft gray-blue.
Boards and wall in one colorGeometric Trim
Nested trim lines start at one edge and point across the wall toward the window.
Trim painted the same terracotta as the wallStepped Accent Design
Short slats of different lengths step in from both sides and leave the middle open to frame the bed.

Layered horizontal boards run corner to corner, with wide gaps that keep the wall calm.

What we can create
Start from one of these patterns or bring your own idea. Spacing, board size and color are set for your wall.
-
Board and batten
A classic grid of boards, full height or as wainscoting with a top rail.
-
Geometric trim
Angles, chevrons and nested lines laid out around your wall and windows.
-
Vertical slats
Even or rhythmic vertical boards that make a room feel taller.
-
Painted paneling
Horizontal boards and decorative molding, finished in one color.
Wall prep and painting are part of the accent wall project, so trim and wall finish as one surface.
Simple from the first photo
You send what you have. We work out the rest together.

A few common questions
- Wisconsin Dwelling ContractorCredential held by the company.
- Insured local businessCoverage details for your project are confirmed with the estimate.
Do I need a finished design before I reach out?
No. A photo of the wall and a few pictures you like are enough. We can suggest patterns that fit the room, the windows and the furniture.
Do I have to repaint the whole room?
Usually not. The accent wall is painted as part of the project. The other walls stay as they are unless you want them changed too.
What should I send for an estimate?
A straight-on photo, a rough width and height, your city or ZIP, and the year your home was built if you know it. Mention any outlets, switches or vents on the wall. Please keep faces, documents and house numbers out of the photos.
My home was built before 1978. Does that matter?
It can. Older homes may have lead-based paint, and some prep work on painted surfaces falls under Wisconsin lead-safe rules. Tell us the year built, and we'll talk through what applies to your wall before any estimate.
