Character for rooms that feel plain

New-construction homes around Charlotte often come with flat, plain walls. An accent wall adds character: a headboard wall in the bedroom, wainscoting in the dining room or slats behind the TV.

Good layout is everything. We plan spacing around windows, outlets and corners, scribe to walls that are not straight and fill, caulk and paint until the seams disappear.

For TV walls we hide power and cables inside the wall, add LED lighting if you want it and mount into framing.

Every accent wall includes

  • Design help and layout drawing before we start
  • Symmetrical spacing around windows, outlets and corners
  • Materials cut, scribed and installed on site
  • Nail holes filled, joints caulked, finish painted or stained
  • Clean-up the same day
