Panelling is all in the setting out. Panels on a staircase wall have to follow the pitch of the stair, line up with each other and keep even margins, or the eye catches it straight away. I set the panels out on the wall first, then cut, fix and finish them.

Work includes panelling the side of a staircase, spindles and handrails, moulded panels running up a stairwell and closing in the space under the stairs with cupboards or an access door.

Questions about staircases and panelling

Can panelling follow a staircase wall?

Yes. The mouldings are cut to the angle of the stair so the panels run parallel to it. One of the photos here shows the panels set out up a stairwell before painting.

Can you use the space under my stairs?

Yes. Cupboards can be shaped to the underside of the staircase, or the side can be panelled with an access door built in. See fitted storage for more.
