Panelling a Wall using Matchboard | Hall, Stairs and Landing

[@porkchop0711]

You are a good teacher, it looks great.

[@caroljean161]

Excellent! Thank you, I’ve been looking for something fairly durable and inexpensive that doesn’t require expert skill to do some panelling in my hallway. This is just what I am looking to achieve. You did a great job! 😎

[@ELSA-468]

Just discovered your channel and I love your videos so far.... my husband and I also bought an old house that needs some renovations so watching these videos have been great inspiration:)

[@MrMesospheric]

Excellent! But if you have any chance of moisture, use a lattice of timber for ventilation and either MDF or, preferably, real timber matchboard. Remember to leave a small ventilation gap at floor level and somewhere for the moisture to go at top.

[@TheRestorationCouple]

We did another episode when doing that on solid walls of the house. Battened with hidden vent, worked well. 👍

[@f1remandg]

Yeah I impressed! I’ve been doing it for to many years including 8 properties and that includes a 300 year old one. Electrics, plumbing,, etc. I like the way you work, it’s good, well done. Get yourself a sliding bevel and a Fein Tool you Lifted my spirits! I don’t give praise easily. Remember the family though, I think you’ve got that covered. 👌 💪 🤙 David

[@jaycspeedier5507]

Lovely stuff. Resign Sturgeon.

[@chriswilliams-ou4zd]

Looks great. Was going to get a joiner in to do mine but after watching this looks really easy. Thanks again

[@ForViewingOnly]

Excellent video, thanks. This is exactly what I had in mind, although it took me a little while to find the correct search words. 'Dado' is a new one on me!

[@sanaariaz6]

Hi, can u please share what glue you used to stick panels on and what saw u used to cut. Also would be helpful if you could show how to do paneling behind switches or plugs and radiators

[@peggyt1243]

The hallway is looking good. I am sure your wife is thrilled to have the space cleaned up.

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Yes, ready for plenty of clutter and buggies now! :)

[@LeeRobertsMe]

Looking good as always, I'd be inclined to keep it open personally, I'd also run skirting along that last bit of brickwork at the bottom of the stairs, it should cover most of it up and add that finishing touch to that area.

[@douglasgrimsey9249]

Really nice job! Looking to do the same in my hallway after I've finished my bathroom.

[@jamiehough3611]

Real nice job, looks amazing

[@TheRestorationCouple]

+jamie hough Thanks Jamie :)

[@TheMono25]

I can do the straight cuts. But what happens when you get to a corner and have to wrap around? To the next wall

[@d.vsinghbali7550]

Very informative. Well done

[@SaraDavies-n8d]

Hi I have been looking at purchasing this panelling for my utility room but the person who is doing it out said it would work out much cheaper to make our selfs I watch your one video of you showing how to do this with a router but I’m just wondering what router bit would I need to make it look like the matchboard lines as I like these more than the v groove lines the person has shown me a router part to get but I’m unsure if it would make the same lines as the matchboard any help would be great thanks

[@josephturiccki7736]

Looks great! What would you do if you were going to do more than one wall, so essentially panelling around a corner?

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Just but join the corner and scribe the top and bottom trims. Or you could put a small scotia up there corner if needed.

[@themittal]

Hi I am using the same gun, which nail size are you using for these panels?

[@SuperSmithy1985]

Looking at doing this exact thing to our hallway. How would you work this around sockets/radiator?

[@christinedarby8616]

hey. great video👍👌 just a quick question, could it be possible to that on a wall near a stairs?😊

[@AlisterSalter]

Rebate the dado rail over the panelling would safe caulking and look neater

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Yes, would have been better however the victorian style moulding we used would not have had the depth to allow for it. Most panel systems do use a pre rebated capping though as you have suggested.

[@jaycspeedier5507]

Nice job.

[@addieinengland]

What is the gun you're using? Is it just a general nail gun or something else?

[@Servanity]

what was the gun you used? Nail gun?

[@dennisglynn9568]

Hi - many thanks for this video - also found out that Howdens also stock this pannelling 👍 where did you your dado rail? Thanks in advance.

[@madscientist2900]

Love your vids guys, keep em coming!

[@Abacus_Zephyr]

Good to know where the safe is 😆

[@titanclass3895]

Especially the back (weakest point) of it!!!! 😀

[@CHLA94]

Excellent channel my friend! Another cool vid

[@thegoodofhumanity966]

Nice channel and workmanship

[@tammyfinch5469]

I really like that wainscoting board. It looks great.

[@marcnathanael9866]

Good job bro..

[@andrewhunt4532]

Just ask you a personal question how do you have time to fix your house and work at the same time I look after your children when you finish work don't you feel tired because I'm fixing my house and only Saturday I can fix it Sunday I go out how many hours do you put in a day to fix your house

[@TheRestorationCouple]

It’s a good question. I am fortunate that I work for myself as a photographer so much of my office work I can do in the evenings. At the moment I am spending 3 daytimes a week on the house and then 2 days and all my evenings working. Most weekends then become family time. If I had a regular job it would be much harder.

[@mmack3286]

Where did you purchase these panelling boards? Great videos!

[@ImMarkyB]

Love your videos, thanks so much.

[@Gurmahiekam]

Very nice good on you

[@henrysworkshop7477]

looking great!

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Thanks Henry! Loved your last video, looked great.

[@henrysworkshop7477]

Cheers!

[@joeg7537]

amazing work

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Thank you. :)

[@Brown969]

Great work Tim. Looks like that saw bit ya back...hate when that happens. Will you considering doing a big reveal video of the various rooms? Something like this is what it used to look like (bit of old footage) and here's what it looks like now...??

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Good spot. Always seem to have a saw bite on my hand somewhere! :) yes before and after videos definitely in the pipeline, just need to find a room that we can call 'finished' as we are very good at moving on to other projects without doing the last few bits! Watch this space though.

[@vikingofengland]

What gauge brads did you use?

[@TheRestorationCouple]

18, although replace that old nail gun now but still woudl use 18s probably.

[@ramfrancisuk]

Excellent job. very tidy :)

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Yes it's certainly getting there at last!

[@Rain-uh4us]

Do you use primer, or is this the undercoat before painting also do you need to coat boards front backs sides for a hallway kind regards ☺

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Yes undercoat. I didn’t do back as walls internal and dry so not much risk. I have done when using them in cupboard doors or as backs to shelves.

[@Rain-uh4us]

@@TheRestorationCouple thankyou so much for your reply, all the hard work you put in you make it look so easy amazing lovely family xx ☺

[@wendysides7081]

How about stairs please.

[@davidlittlewood8850]

Those panels are expensive £17/£20 per sheet must have cost you hundreds to do that job.

[@crissieroserose]

how much each were those boards ?

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Not sure, they were by Easipanel in the UK. Not too much maybe £6.

[@jamietreharne2540]

£11 each 😷

[@paddymph]

£20 now!

[@indyarksey8590]

I know the guy who invented Matchboard

[@Field-Meerkat]

Disappointing that this doesn't actually show how to do the stairs 😕

[@paddymph]

Not really as he never did the stairs 😂🤷‍♂️

[@Field-Meerkat]

​@paddymph title of the video says hall, stairs and landing! 🤷

[@frenchycanada]

Too much talking....get to the point. Ever ask a simple question and get an hour worth of answers? Sorry bud....

[@titanclass3895]

Blah blah blah!!!!
