I've been in the trades since I was 15, looking for opportunities to grow my buisness after moving to a new area recently. We generally are a group of full time contractors, engineers and project managers that like to get our hands dirty. We work fast, do everything in house, work flexible hours and pride ourselves on affordable pricing.
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Emerald Bay Design and Construction for a major renovation project, and I couldn't be more impressed with the craftsmanship. From start to finish, they demonstrated a deep understanding of design and construction techniques, delivering outstanding results that exceeded my expectations. Richard took the time to understand my vision and translated it into a beautifully crafted reality. Communication was clear and timely throughout the process and I received my bid back quickly and accurately. Overall, I would highly recommend Emerald Bay Design and Construction to anyone looking for a design and construction company. I am thrilled with the results of my project and look forward to working with them again in the future."

"The attention and care these guys put into their work is impressive. The first project we had them do was repair some severe, structural water damage on a wall. They rooted out every rotted bit that spanned three floors and the interior finish work was seamless – you’d never know there had been a problem. The second project was the replacement of two windows which was completed as agreed within the forecast time frame. Currently they are remodeling the kitchen and I can hear their discussion as they work. It’s not about getting it done, it’s entirely about getting it done right as they are painstakingly making the floor *perfectly* level. I cannot recommend Accurate highly enough!"

Wall paneling installation requires one to three days for a standard room, with timing dependent on the complexity of your chosen style and space dimensions. Basic installations like shiplap in a small room might be completed in a single day, while intricate designs like raised panels in larger areas could extend to several days.
Preparation work, including wall repairs or existing covering removal, adds to the timeline. Professional installers often complete projects more efficiently than DIY approaches, which might span multiple weekends.
Wall paneling covers entire walls from floor to ceiling, while wainscoting specifically refers to paneling that covers only the lower half of a wall. Originally developed to protect walls from chair damage and moisture, wainscoting now serves primarily as a decorative element that adds architectural interest.
Both treatments enhance room aesthetics, but wainscoting requires less material and therefore costs less than full wall paneling. Wainscoting prices range from $1 to $10 per square foot, making it a budget-friendly option for adding character.
Basic drywall installation costs $1.60 to $2.35 per square foot, making it less expensive than most wall paneling options that range from $1 to $40 per square foot. However, this initial price comparison doesn't tell the complete story. Drywall requires additional finishing steps, including taping, mudding, sanding, and painting, which add to the total cost.
When comparing finished drywall to simpler paneling styles, the price difference narrows considerably. In situations where existing walls have significant damage, paneling installation might actually prove more economical than extensive drywall repairs.
For most full-wall paneling installations, removing baseboards is recommended to achieve proper fit and alignment. This allows panels to sit flush against the wall and creates a more professional finished appearance. After installation, baseboards can be reinstalled or replaced with new trim that complements your paneling style.
For partial-wall applications like wainscoting, existing baseboards are often replaced with trim pieces specifically designed to coordinate with the paneling. Consulting with your installer about the specific requirements of your chosen paneling style will help ensure proper preparation and finishing.
