Shiplap & Accent Walls in Vernon Hills, IL

A shiplap wall lives or dies on the first board. Set that one dead level and the rest of the wall stacks true; start off a floor or ceiling that isn't, and every gap grows as you go up.

Shiplap & Accent Walls for Vernon Hills, Illinois homes

A shiplap wall lives or dies on the first board. Set that one dead level and the rest of the wall stacks true; start off a floor or ceiling that isn't, and every gap grows as you go up.

Vernon Hills is mostly newer construction, where the common jobs are upgrading builder-grade trim and adding built-in storage. Whichever it turns out to be, the carpenter who prices your Vernon Hills job is the one who shows up to do it.

Shiplap goes on more than walls. Kitchen islands and peninsulas, the back of a bar, fireplace surrounds and ceilings all take it, wrapped with a base and cap so the ends are finished rather than exposed.

Common questions

Shiplap & Accent Walls in Vernon Hills, answered

Do you do shiplap & accent walls in Vernon Hills?

Yes. Vernon Hills is inside our regular service area and we work there every month. Call (224) 944-8652 and we'll set a time to look at the job and put a written price on it.

Is shiplap the same as board-and-batten?

No. Shiplap is horizontal boards with a small gap between them; board-and-batten is vertical strips over a flat panel or the drywall itself. They read very differently in a room, and we can mock either up on the wall before you decide.

How much does it cost?

Every job is priced after we see the actual space, so you get a real number rather than a range. The estimate is free, it's in writing, and the scope is spelled out before any work starts.
