ACCENT WALL INSTALLATION

An accent wall is any wall in a room designed differently from the others, including the ceiling. The purpose of an accent wall is to stand out from the others, draw the eye to an area, or give the “wow factor” - literally making your guests walk in and say “Wow, that’s beautiful.”

Accent walls can be created with paint, stencil, or color, but if you really want to stand apart, consider some of the following finish carpentry designs:

• Shiplap
• Board and batten
• Wainscoting
• Raised or flat paneling

But what you do with each of these is nearly endless. 

You can install shiplap vertically, horizontally, at an angle, or in a herringbone style; take the board and batten half way up the wall, 3/4’s, or all the way to the ceiling; opt for simple or ornate picture frames; you can add any type of design you’d like  - from simple to geometric - to your accent wall design.

(The best place for examples and to find what you love is Pinterest.

First, you will complete the initial contact form. We'll review your project with you by phone to get a rough idea of what you want to create in your home or business. We'll ask you some questions to ensure we're the right people for your job and answer any questions you may have.

Next, we'll use any measurements you can give me (even rough ones) and any photos you might have to provide you with a ballpark of what your project would likely cost, barring anything we can't see over the phone.

If that ballpark sounds good to you, our next step will be to schedule a time to come out to you to get exact measurements and discuss materials with you. We will look for any potential design elements we need to address, can answer any further questions you have, walk you through your options, and use these details to get you an exact cost for your accent wall project.

Your final bid is guaranteed for 30 days and is exactly what you pay, not a penny more (unless there are significant changes or additions to the project).

This means you'll know exactly what to budget for your project and won't get hustled for more.

From there, you can make your deposit, which will allow us to get your accent wall material ordered and get your installation on the schedule.

If we encounter any decisions or concerns, we'll let you know immediately and help you through the decision-making process with expert perspectives.

How long your accent wall installation will take will vary based on the size of your project. The biggest chunk of our time is in setting up. After that the project goes pretty swiftly. To give you an idea of what to expect:

• A single wall usually takes about 1-2 day/s
• A dining room ceiling takes about 1-2 day/2

When we submit your final bid, we will give you a time estimate for your accent wall installation. (We like to overestimate this so that you're never left waiting on us, but we're done ahead of schedule 95% of the time.)

Once the job is complete, we'll do a final walkthrough with you to get your approval and ensure you love everything. The remainder of your invoice is due upon completion of the job.

We try to leave the color selection up to you. We will not make any final decisions on paint color, however, here are some tips you can use when choosing your paint color. 

Selecting the perfect paint color for an accent wall in your home is crucial to achieving the desired visual impact. The key is to choose a color that will complement the existing color scheme while creating a focal point in the room.

One option is to choose a vibrant color that contrasts with lighter colors on the surrounding walls. This bold approach will draw attention to the accent wall and make it the room's focal point. For instance, a deep navy blue against light neutral walls creates a stunning contrast and adds depth to space. Be sure to consider the existing decor and furniture when selecting a vibrant accent color, as these elements should harmonize with the chosen hue.

If a bold color feels too overwhelming, you could opt for a more subdued approach by selecting a neutral color. Neutrals can still make a statement without overpowering the room. For example, using a soft gray or dark beige on the accent wall can create a subtle contrast that adds elegance and sophistication to the room.

When selecting the perfect color, also pay attention to the following factors:

• Room size: Darker colors tend to make a space feel smaller and cozier, while lighter colors can make a room feel larger and more open.
• Lighting: Natural light can greatly affect how a color appears on the walls. Be sure to test paint samples in varying lighting conditions to see how the color changes throughout the day.
• Personal style: The color choice should ultimately reflect your personal taste and the desired atmosphere for the room.

Remember to consider the overall color palette of your home when choosing the perfect paint color for your accent wall. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different shades and hues to find the one paint color that elevates your space and makes a lasting impression.
