Looking at your rooms and thinking “something’s missing”? Wall panelling kits – especially when cut-to-size – offer the perfect finishing touches to any home.
There are numerous types to consider. Maybe you’re looking for the understated elegance of shaker style? Or the cosy charm of wainscot panelling? To help you decide, we’ve gone through a selection of our top picks below.
Popular panelling kits
1) The Kanso Wall Panelling Kit
The Kanso kit is a brilliant choice for any room of the house, using moisture-resistant MDF panelling with a tongue and groove edge. To complete the look, you can even add skirting, a dado rail and corner bead to the kit.
And, better yet, the panelling is bespoke. Simply input your required panelling height, as well as the total combined width of your walls, to get the ideal panels for your room.
2) Cut-to-size Bedroom Headboard Kit
Is your bedroom ready for a bit of a makeover? Headboard panelling is such an easy (but effective) way to bring a room to life.
Our bedroom headboard kit is available with cut-to-size panels, so you can order it to fit around your bed. Plus, a free picture shelf is included with the panelling, so you can place some lovely frames across it, like in the image above.
If you’d like the essential tools included in your kit, there’s the option to pay a bit extra for these.
Also, as it uses moisture-resistant MDF, the kit is suitable for humid bedrooms.
3) Edwardian Dado Panelling Kit
If you prefer more traditional panelling, we recommend Edwardian-style panelling with a dado rail. It’s a super elegant style that adds gorgeous, subtle detailing to a wall.
Our Edwardian Dado Panelling Kit includes dado and moulding to create a professional finish.
The result? Stunning (and very sophisticated) wall panelling.
4) Farmhouse Shiplap Panelling Kit
To add a lovely, rustic design to your home, try shiplap-style wall panelling.
The Farmhouse Shiplap Panelling Kit creates an incredibly sleek look, and the vertical panels can easily be installed using glue, nails or screws.
As it uses moisture-resistant MDF, it’s a great choice for any room, including humid spaces like kitchens and bathrooms.

How to install wall panelling kits
All of our wall panelling kits are intended to be as easy to install as possible.
We have a step-by-step guide to panelling a wall for more information.
But, as a brief overview, start by planning out the design and measuring the walls. You’ll then need to prepare the walls by sanding down any rough areas (remember to use PPE for this!). Then, you can use adhesive, nails or screws to attach the panels in place.
Caulk can be used to fill any gaps. Also, make sure your panels are primed before you paint them (we sell pre-primed MDF panelling to speed up this step for you).
Once painted, you’ll have the panelled walls of your dreams.
