"They came on time and repaired the chimney. The repair involved removing the cracked cap, and loose bricks. They then replaced the bricks, pointed cracks, put moisture barrier and an expansion joint around the stack and then replaced the cap. Took pictures & cleaned up."

"My husband and I had an outstanding experience working with Window Place Plus, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, Jackie was an absolute pleasure to work with—professional, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, honest. As one of the owners of the company, she truly cares about her customers and the quality of the work her team delivers. Unlike many sales representatives who use high-pressure tactics or deceptive marketing strategies, Jackie provided us with straightforward pricing and transparent information. There were no gimmicks, just an honest assessment of what we were getting for our money. Before choosing Window Place Plus, we received quotes from five different companies. However, none of them impressed us as much as this one. What set them apart was not only the exceptional quality of the Okna windows they offer but also the efficiency and integrity of their service. We replaced 35 windows in our home, and the entire process—from consultation to installation—was smooth, organized, and stress-free. As with any major home improvement project, there were a few minor issues along the way, but Jackie personally stepped in and ensured everything was taken care of right away. Her hands-on approach and commitment to customer satisfaction reassured us that we had made the right choice. Having owned multiple properties, we’ve encountered our fair share of businesses that overpromise and underdeliver. Many companies claim to offer premium products but fail to meet expectations in terms of quality or service. Window Place Plus was a refreshing change—they delivered exactly what they promised, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. If you are a homeowner looking for top-tier products and a company that truly stands by its work, Window Place Plus is the way to go. Their honesty, professionalism, and quality craftsmanship make them a standout choice. We will certainly be returning to them for future projects!"

Wainscoting is decorative paneling that covers the lower part of a wall, adding style and protection. Beadboard is a popular type of wainscoting characterized by long, vertical panels with raised beads—small indentations or ridges between the planks. It's commonly used on walls and ceilings to add depth and character. Both wainscoting and beadboard are versatile options that allow you to enhance your indoor and outdoor spaces. Beadboard panels lock together with a tongue-and-groove joint, while shiplap—a similar style—uses a square-shaped rabbet joint.
The top of the wainscoting should be set at one-third of the room’s height. So, for a standard room with nine-foot ceilings, the wainscoting should extend exactly three feet. This precise measurement creates a balanced, elegant look that enhances overall room proportions and delivers a classic design appearance.
Wainscoting can make a room look smaller if the room has low ceilings. The same rule applies with wainscoting as it does with painting any space: In order to make the room look larger and more open, paint it a light color like white or cream. Since beadboard incorporates vertical lines in the paneling, this style of wainscoting is ideal for those wanting to make a room appear larger than it is.
While wainscoting can technically be used in any room, you’ll typically want to reserve it for a more open space, like a foyer where you want to make a dynamic first impression or a bathroom with tall ceilings. Avoid using wainscoting in small spaces with low ceilings. Open concepts like a living room and kitchen combination also don’t work well with wainscoting because there isn’t a clean break point along the walls.
Wainscoting can increase home value because it offers a refined design element that boosts buyer interest. Its elegant finish and distinctive style enhance interior aesthetics and generate a positive market impression, therefore confidently increasing the property’s overall desirability and resale value.
