"From start to finish the job was completed with attention to detail, on budget and on time. The trim installers (Chris and Danny) were fantastic. They took their time and cared for the project like it was their own house. It was a big project. I had all outside exposed wood covered in trim and/or vinyl soffit. I can't thank Sun Home enough. During the gutter installtion a small piece of the trim was dented and it wasn't a huge problem but the job was done so well that I asked for it to be replaced. This happended, by the way, when a second crew, not Chris and Danny installed the gutters. On final inspection I showed Dave ( saleperson and delightful man) and he said give him a few days and they would take care of it. Like clockwork, he sent Chris back out and took care of it. To Chris, Danny, Rob and Dave, I thank you all for a well-done project from start to finish. I highly recommend Sun Home!!"

Rapid Roofing is proud to serve Southeast Michigan and has been Restoring Peace-of-Mind for over 25 years. Call us today at (734) 895-9553 or visit us on the web at www.rapidroofing.com to schedule your consultation today! We've pioneered a set of standards called the Successful Project Assurance Guide for homeowners. The guide gives homeowners like you a fighting chance for a successful project though a set of high standards by which to measure contractors of any type. This will allow you to judge beforehand whether or not a contractor is likely to do your job right the first time.

"***PLEASE READ BEFORE GOING WITH RAPID ROOFING!!!! Short story: Don't go with them - they do terrible work and you will regret it, but you probably won't know until it's too late. If you do, get *everything* inspected afterwards, and don't pay until it's right. Full story: We recently purchased a house with a roof done by Rapid Roofing 2021 or 2022. I went into the attic to figure out some ducting up there and noticed that there was ambering in the joists. I found out this was caused by over heating. I looked into this more, and figured out that there wasn't anywhere remotely enough air flow to allow hot, humid air to escape. What little ventilation was coming from the soffits It is 100% illegal and not to code to install roofs without the necessary airflow - it causes over heating which damages the roof and the wood, and can cause mold issues due to condensation. According to Michigan Building Code 1203.2 Ventilation required: "The net free ventilating area shall be not less than 1/150 of the area of the space ventilated." We're lucky if we have 1/10000 - there's ventilation at the roof ridge, but zero replacement air vent lower in the roof. They should have known that ventilation was required. We reached out to Rapid Roofing to see what it would take to fix this - they said it was out of warranty (you have to sign up within 1 year of purchasing the house to transfer it, which is BS, but I guess that was in the contract), but they said would see what they could do since they acknowledged it was their mistake. The head of customer service gave a long story about how their quality had gone down and he was trying to make things right now that he was in a position to do so. We had even suggested that we'd be willing to pay. After several calls with them promising to fix it strung out over months of us having to hound them because they don't return calls, they then stopped answering calls and ghosted us. So I guess we'll be paying to have someone else put in proper, legal venting. Don't use them. Don't trust them. Don't waste your money on them, you will regret it. We're looking into the possibility of suing them, you don't want to be in the same place as us in a few years."

FAQs for wainscoting installation projects in Walled Lake, MI

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.
