Accent walls and wainscoting are some of the most popular interior upgrades in Austin right now. They add architectural depth to flat, builder-grade walls without the cost or disruption of a full renovation. A well-placed shiplap wall in a living room, board-and-batten in an entryway, or raised-panel wainscoting in a dining room changes the entire feel of the space for a fraction of what most remodeling projects cost.
Shiplap has been the most requested accent wall treatment in Austin for the past several years, and it's still going strong. We install real wood shiplap as well as MDF shiplap that paints cleaner and won't expand or contract with Austin's humidity swings. Board-and-batten (vertical battens applied over a flat panel) is the second most popular option and works especially well in entryways, hallways, and bedrooms. For a more traditional look, we install raised-panel and flat-panel wainscoting in dining rooms, offices, and stairways throughout homes in Westlake, Tarrytown, and Hyde Park.
Slat walls have become a trend in modern Austin homes, particularly in living rooms and behind TV mounts. These vertical or horizontal wood slats create visual texture and a warm, contemporary feel. We build custom slat walls from natural wood or painted MDF and install them with hidden fasteners for a clean look. They work particularly well in the modern farmhouse and mid-century styles that are popular in neighborhoods like Mueller, South Congress, and East Austin.
Every accent wall and wainscoting project includes layout planning, precise measurements, material selection assistance, professional installation, caulking, nail filling, and priming. We make sure the panels are level, the joints are tight, and the transitions to adjacent walls are clean. If you want the finished product painted, we handle that too. The result is a feature that looks like it was built with the house, not added after the fact.

Reviews from Our Customers
Hear from Austin homeowners and agents who trust us.
“We use them for every pre-listing make-ready now. Had them repaint the entire interior of a 4-bed listing in Avery Ranch — neutral tones, clean lines, two coats throughout. Done in three days and the house showed like new construction. Went under contract opening weekend.”
Marcus T.
Round Rock, TX — Interior Painting
“Painted our entire downstairs — living room, kitchen, hallway, and half bath. They matched the existing trim color perfectly and were completely done in two days. Not a single drip on the floors.”
Nicole W.
Mueller, Austin, TX — Interior Painting
“Had them replace carpet with LVP in a rental property between tenants. They coordinated around the tight turnover window, finished two days ahead of schedule, and the floors look amazing. New tenants signed the lease the day they toured.”
