Wall Paneling designed, built and installed for Laval — suburban houses where the mudroom is as serious a brief as the kitchen. Our Montreal showroom is around twenty-five minutes south.
Quebec's older houses often still have their original panelling, and the standard is set by what is already on the wall. New work is matched to the existing profile, the existing rail height and the existing reveal, which is a measuring job before it is a making one. In newer housing the freedom is greater but the humidity constraint is the same: the substrate and the fixing method have to allow for a very wide annual movement.
The same wide humidity swing as Montreal applies, and it is the deciding factor in how solid timber is specified.
Laval's housing is mostly suburban and detached, which removes the access constraints of the island and replaces them with a different brief: bigger kitchens, real pantries, mudrooms that work in winter, and basements finished properly.
A winter mudroom in this climate is a serious piece of cabinetry — wet boots, salt, coats and sports gear, with ventilation and a floor that survives it. It is worth designing rather than buying.
This is the constant. Wherever the job is, a wall paneling from us is put together this way.
Panelling is the quietest thing we make and the one that changes a room most. It gives a wall proportion, hides the joins where a house is not square, and carries doors, storage and lighting inside a single continuous surface — but only if it is set out properly, because a panel grid that misses its openings is worse than a plain wall.
Three different registers for three different rooms — the choice is made against the architecture, not against a trend.
Panel joints are planned to land on door openings, corners and switch positions rather than wherever the module falls.
Jib doors, cupboards and services can disappear into the panelling so the wall reads as one surface.
More on how we approach this → Wall Paneling
We work throughout Laval, including Sainte-Dorothee, Chomedey, Vimont, Duvernay and Fabreville. The housing here is post-war and 1970s to 1990s detached family houses, plus a steady flow of newer construction, and the cabinetry is specified for it rather than to a national standard.
Our Montreal showroom is around twenty-five minutes south. The showroom is at 4865 Jean-Talon O.. Come and see the materials in person, or send the drawings and we will price the job room by room.
Every project is photographed room by room with the materials and the detailing listed, so you can see how a job like this is actually put together before you commit to one.

You can also search every finish we specify and every appliance we design around.
One shop draws, finishes and installs all of it, which is why the closet matches the kitchen and there is one number to call when something needs adjusting.
