"DO NOT HIRE SHIREY. BEWARE. I sent detailed emails with photos of work I needed done. They came unprepared and then tried to charge me $105 an hour to run around getting supplies that I noted they needed to bring! Tech was NOT SKILLFUL (I have photos of wood he replaced around my dryer vent) NOT EFFICIENT (working at a snail's pace, up and down stairs many times as had "forgotten" many things in his truck (or didn't know what he needed for the job), wandering around looking in my garage in a space that wasn't related to his work at my home) NOT SAFE (didn't bring the taller ladder I had requested so stood on TOP of my 8' ladder. Said "It's not a problem. I do it all the time.") NO INTEGRITY. Tech closed up my crawl space door and said he was "done down there." I know he wasn't expecting a lady to go check the work in the crawl space and when I did, I found out what he had "done down there" - a HACK JOB on trying to replace the rotted dryer vent wood AND he left all the trash from the duct tape, tar paper, rotted wood scraps, etc. Outside dryer vent cap wasn't even screwed into wood. When I asked him, he said he left it like that so I could prime and paint the wood. I asked him to screw it in so I knew it was all good and I would unscrew it when ready to paint. He couldn't screw it in as he cut the hole too big, so there was no wood in which to screw it! He used huge nails (not wood screws) and split/cracked/broke the new wood frame that was cut too big. Horrible carpentry. And he was going to leave it like that had I not asked him about it! There was also over a 1/2" gap on the top or bottom, depending on how you moved the vent. He said he would put some caulk in the gap. I said no, to leave it. That is wasn't done correctly and I wanted it done properly. Not a shoddy job "jury rigged" and filled with caulk. I refused to pay and called Jon the owner and told him why. I requested Jon to come to my home to see the work his Tech did. Jon made an appointment to come out, then called the next day to cancel. He knows he can't stand behind his Tech's work, because he knows it's unprofessional and very bad. He said he wouldn't charge us for the visit and we would not do business again. We were repeat customers but will NEVER hire Shirey again. Shady business owner who does not stand behind his companies work. DO NOT hire them or pay them a dime. A picture is worth a thousand words. I have a bunch but nowhere to post on this review site. I hope others read the MANY other poor reviews of SHIREY and see the truth."

"Steve was recommended by a neighbor who is also in the trades. I called, left a message, he called me back within an hour. After discussing the broken torsion spring and what it would take to replace it - including me sending pictures, he quoted me a very fair price and said he would be able to come do the repair the next day at 10 AM. Next day at 10 AM, there he was on my doorstep. About 40 minutes later the replacement was complete, including some minor adjustments that were also needed, all included in the original quoted price.

FAQs for wainscoting installation projects in Mercer Island, WA

Wainscoting is decorative paneling that covers the lower part of a wall for style and protection. Beadboard is a type of wainscoting made of long vertical planks with small raised beads between each board. You’ll see it on walls and ceilings when homeowners want added depth and charm. Both options work indoors or outdoors; beadboard pieces lock together with tongue-and-groove joints, while similar styles, such as shiplap, rely on a square rabbet joint.

The best rule of thumb for wainscoting is to stop the panels at about one-third of the wall height. In a room with a nine-foot ceiling, that’s roughly three feet up. Sticking to this ratio keeps the room balanced, lets plenty of wall color show above the trim, and delivers a polished, timeless look.

Wainscoting can make a room look smaller if the room has low ceilings. The same rule applies to wainscoting as it does to painting any space: to make the room look larger and more open, paint it a light color, such as white or cream. Since beadboard incorporates vertical lines in the paneling, this style of wainscoting is ideal for those wanting to make a room appear larger than it is.

Technically, you can panel any room, but wainscoting shines in open areas, such as a foyer or a tall-ceilinged bathroom. Skip it in small rooms with low ceilings—panels can make tight spaces feel boxed in. Open-concept layouts without clear stopping points along the walls are also tricky, as the trim requires a distinct beginning and end.

Removing existing wall panels before installing wainscoting involves distinct demolition efforts. The cost to hire a professional for demo work is $1.50 per square foot. If the underlying drywall requires replacement after panel removal, an additional fee of $1.60 to $2.35 per square foot is incurred. Completing these tasks properly ensures a sturdy foundation and a flawless finish.
