Check out these progress pics from a barn board feature wall we installed this past weekend. Follow a few simple steps and this easy to install project can be installed by anyone with a little patience and a few tools.
Tools Required: 16g air nailer, compressor, hand stapler, chop saw, table saw or skill saw, jig saw, hammer.
Materials Required: dressed barn board, tar paper (roofing), 16g brad nails, staples
Installation:
- cut and staple tar paper to the wall. The black background makes and holes/cracks in the barn board disappear on the wall.
- install barn board working your way from the top to the bottom.
- the jig saw will be required to cut out light switches and electrical outlets.
- the bottom board will have to be ripped to fit against the floor. You can use a table saw or skill saw with a guide.
BOOM! YOU ARE DONE!
The key to a seamless and quick install is having the material dressed and ready to be installed. Let us take care of the supply and shop work, you install and blow your wife's mind!
