Wainscoting is a timeless way to add architectural detail, depth, and elegance to any room. At Vella Contracting, we offer fully customized wainscoting solutions designed to enhance your home’s style while complementing your existing trimwork. Whether you prefer a clean, modern look or a more traditional design, we provide two primary installation styles: Applied (Appliqué) and Recessed Panel.
The applied or appliqué method is one of the most popular and cost‑effective ways to achieve a classic wainscoting look.
We use chair‑rail moulding and panel moulding to create decorative “boxes” or “squares” directly on your wall.
Your existing baseboards do not need to be removed.
All mouldings are installed right over the existing drywall, making this a clean and efficient option.
Budget‑friendly
Quick installation
Minimal disruption
Works beautifully in hallways, dining rooms, staircases, and living spaces
For a more premium, architectural look, recessed panel wainscoting offers depth and dimension that truly elevates a room.
We begin by removing your existing baseboards.
Build‑out panels are installed to create the signature recessed effect.
We then add the chair‑rail, panel mould, new baseboards, and shoe moulding for a fully finished, custom appearance.
High‑end, traditional aesthetic
Adds depth and architectural interest
Ideal for formal dining rooms, offices, and feature walls
More material and labour involved, making it a premium upgrade
With hundreds of moulding profiles and layout combinations available, wainscoting can be tailored to suit any interior style—from modern minimalism to classic traditional. You can customize:
Panel size and spacing
Moulding profiles
Height and proportions
Paint colours and finishes
Wainscoting adds timeless beauty, elegance, and value to any room, and the design possibilities are virtually limitless.
