How To Install Wall Panelling In Your Home | DIY Board And Batten

[@stephenleo9884]

Had to admire your honesty in fitting the horizontals on the wrong side of the line

[@benoverton664]

Lovely job Blaine. You seem to be able to turn your hand to most jobs! As a carpenter I get asked to do these quite often they are very popular. Plus I’ve done a couple at home. One tip to speed the process up is to cut 2 of the middle cross pieces at the start and use these to space out each of the uprights after getting the 1st one in level. That way you know the spacing will be exactly the same and no need to re measure each section. Just cut them all in one go and stick them on.. Hope that makes sense 👍

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thanks mate and great advice with the spacing. I’ll be using that next time - thanks for the comment and thank you for watching!!

[@dougieranger]

That’s the way I do it. I make a jig or a template whenever possible. X

[@CharlotteBrokenbrow]

You honestly read my mind! I have nearly finished plastering the 2 main bedrooms and wanted to do this sort of panelling in the master. Great video, thank you!

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

I hope it’s helped!!

[@brendanosullivan3664]

Now you are becoming a carpenter now Blaine my other half has been asking about this thank you

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Haha that’s the one mate. Back to Plastering next week pal 😉

[@bensanderson8653]

Used this video to do my panneling. Thank you for all your tips.

[@TheToibs]

Thanks for the video, mate! Super useful.

[@ericmckinley368]

Great job. A few comments below have asked about the paint colour of the wall, They sat through the video, what about an answer Blaine. Many Thanks.

[@huntybaby]

Amazing! - I had a hard time understanding you because of your accent but that's trivial, it was still amazing job!

[@MarcusT86]

Fantastic video buddy. More projects covering other trades like this as well as more awesome plastering vids pleeease :D

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thanks Marcus mate! I really appreciate that - I’ll keep them coming!!

[@miisioo]

Look beautiful can you please tel me what colour and what brand of paint are you used for that wall

[@jamesharris5637]

Nice job 👍 , I've gotta do a this in my house and this vid has helped me out. Ta

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Hope it’s helped my friend 👍

[@alanwilkinson9487]

Nice one mate .😊

[@jamesingrey]

The new hotmelt glues are a god send for this butt joints. Like Infinity PUR. The only way to minimize cracking and refilling/repaint over time. Same for skirting, door/window trims.

[@billmackinnon6505]

everbuild mitre superglue and activator can be useful too. will have a look at the hot melt though.....

[@mattd6495]

Great video. I am looking at doing this style of panelling in our dining room. But we are aiming to use MDF instead of timber. Can I use any standard filler for that ? Thanks!

[@halusomusic]

Thanks for this mate! I have just ordered from mdf direct! Massive help this vid! What’s the bast nails to use for a solid wall?

[@kendodd8734]

Looked good mate but a few heads up for u ( ur in my territory here) the window should have been framed around (as u suggested) even if it was smaller section timber and the right hand slope to ceiling it’s the way a Chippie would have done it around the window it would have prevented the end grain scenario (although I know uve used mdf here) it’s just good carpentry practice to finish it this way ( like u with the cleaning of ur plastered junctions wall to wall and wall to ceiling good practice ) that said u made a decent job of it it looked good

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you for the heads up mate! Really appreciate that and it’ll hopefully help the viewers watching. Cheers pal. All the best 👍

[@billmackinnon6505]

Nice, I'd be inclined to measure whole wall width, do central upright then half it and half it again n so on. Really depends how things look and line up I suppose. Still this is very useful. Got my hall to do......... cheers for the tips :)

[@danielmcewan6322]

Good effort. I’m joiner by trade but do the plastering too for a while. Bought a house at 21 thinking yeah I can do it up. Wood chip everywhere apart from the windows. Soon discovered the paper held up the plaster. It soon went from stripping paper to hack off back to brick. Back then I was like what the hell am I going to do. Me dad used to be builders labourer/semi skilled. Long story short he did most of the plastering and had me mixing up and cleaning up after him I had a few tries with him holding my hand and made a right twat of it. Skip forward a few years working away on the joinery that dries up so decided to just be local. Doing this job n that job wood work new doors etc a plasterer cancelled on the customer small job dwarf walls in a porch and artex ceiling. The customer was really pissed off so I said I can do that to help you out if you’re not happy don’t pay. Did it and got paid. Since then built up massive confidence and do just plastering jobs. Sometimes different joiners follow me on with the second fix if that’s already been agreed. Cannot fault anyone who wants to learn and try at something new. I’m loving the Venetian videos too. A Jack of all is better than a master of one

[@psychosean77]

good job changing the quote at the end

[@eggsoups]

Clean finish 👌

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thanks mate!!

[@fionalaw1625]

Great video, thank you. Can I ask what colour paint you used on the panels.

[@noizymoney7067]

Looks very nice! What colour is this on the wood panels?

[@mikerussell1765]

Would it be easier to make a gauge rod for the gap between uprights plum frist then you gauge rod or rule to keep distance the same just a thought?

[@duncanemery6264]

I knew yad do a good job as you practice the hardest trade jobs like this will be a doddle

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Cheers mate!!

Great job.

[@LindaSmith-xo8qb]

[@gavinfitton6111]

Great Job! Will be trying your approach soon

[@anthonybrowne4636]

Can you repost the link to the page describing how to work out the positioning of the battens as the one listed seems to have expired Thanks

[@paulyoull5472]

Hi Blaine, as a beginner/ DIY plasterer, does applying a pva/ water mix to fresh plasterboard allow you more time to work the plaster. A non plasterer said it does but I was skeptical and thought it’s best to ask an expert. As a joiner doing panelling, take your time with those corners and scribe them in whilst maintaining the level and treat yourself to a finish nailer pal😂

[@PasPerTwo]

Great job. How did you attach the laser lever to the pole?

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

They usually come with a magnetic frame mate. Just stick it to the metal pole pal 👍

[@lucanwright4131]

Hi, have you seen the new magnetic plaster from gypsum? Would like to see your thoughts on it

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

I haven’t mate...no one ever requested it to be fair 👍

[@brianbraddock2012]

What pins do you use to Hammer in please?

[@mylescheetham2614]

Hi what colour paint did you use please?

[@mikerussell1765]

Did you mitre the straight cuts

[@PaulTaylor-hj7pl]

What blue paint did you use ?

[@liamrichardson1032]

What colour is that on panelling it’s nice

[@sargeatgym]

How long did it take to put the panelling up? And what’s the rough cost to do? Thanks 👍🏼

[@Hcam]

How do you work out the spacing?

[@ascorpio1]

Just itching as I don’t like to see the right corner without a border. Should it have had one to match the rest?

[@m4inline]

We just got a real old country cottage. Maybe 500 yr old wall. Thick. Stone probably. Breathable render in and out. Can we still use panelling and if so how? Thanks!

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

I couldn’t imagine it being a problem - the Victorians did the same and they had lime based plaster (which I’m guessing is what you have). So I don’t see it being an issue. I’d just use MDF because it won’t move as much. Hope this helps my friend 👍

[@m4inline]

@@PlasteringForBeginners thanks! Is there not a risk that moisture will build up between the panel and the wall, as the wall would not 'breathe', causing mould damp and rot?

[@javiermendoza8532]

Hi! Great job! What color is that? please.

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

I think its called Blue Hague pal

[@martymcguire2084]

Great video Thanks

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thanks for watching 👍👍

[@mjaakram]

Question for plasterers, I had my ceiling reboarded and plastered I watched the plasterer couldn't fault his work but now my ceiling is dry it has ripples and bumps??!!!!!!

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

I’m afraid that it’s not the best job. The best way around it is to get it re-plastered unfortunately my friend

[@anthonymellor174]

Great job notice some of the adhesive line showing through one of the panels Shiny curl lines ... other than that great to see .

[@nicholaskelley2357]

Was that a plasterboard wall you put them on , looks good

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

It was 👍👍

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

But it has been plastered previously

[@barnes19064]

im looking to do the panelling at either side of my chimney breast. can you pin the boards direct on to a plastered wall

[@mac10chef]

Brushed copper. Plug Sockets. Would look fantastic on the wall

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

That’s a great shout my friend!

[@dougieranger]

Tidy. 👏🏼

[@stew5308]

what type of nails r u using

[@Cfc88_]

What color is that?

[@NoreastWhips]

You still need to prime pre-primed wood.

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

👍👍

[@jameshawe7499]

Have you stopped plastering??? Brilliant work next week electrics for beginners 😂😂

[@colinwirral1738]

Great job, don’t like the unsafe way you use the jig saw though

[@jimh4072]

That looks great. I don’t see the point of boarding the whole wall with MDF unless it’s in bad shape to begin with. 👍

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Cheers pal! Yeah I must agree now I’ve done it this way. It’s really not needed 👍

[@simongrice5788]

I think it can be worth battening the wall out if it's an older property and you want to put insulation behind then you would need sheets of mdf, otherwise as you say not needed.

[@dollydaydream5839]

Yes its fashionable but I first did it in a bedroom 9 years ago. 😂

[@mrmeg01]

Surely you didnt have to nail them really

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

It stops the lengths from moving until the adhesive kicks in. You need a solid fixing to keep them plumb Whilst you fix the horizontal’s.

[@charmaynedobbs2002]

This is not paneling. It’s a faux look.
