Wainscoting
$30-50 per panel. Architectural gravitas from the 1700s, installed in a weekend.
Wainscoting adds instant architectural gravitas to a dining room or hallway, marking a quality construction trait dating back to the 1700s. Modern DIY versions use pre-made MDF panels at $30-$50 per 4x8 sheet, costing 40% less than traditional beadboard. Paint 36-inch wainscoting in contrast colors—like white over dark—for a dramatic effect that rivals custom millwork. The trick is getting the chair rail perfectly level and spacing panels evenly; measure twice, nail once.
