    As you meander throughCountry Club Homes Custom Home Builder Remodeler Fairfield County New Canaan Connecticut the home, you will eventually encounter wainscoting covering walls in both formal and informal spaces. Employed for hundreds of years to cover the lower portion of plaster walls, it is used today both for decorative purposes and functionally to protect walls. Many a high traffic mudroom, kitchen, hallway and stairway wall is covered in wainscoting.

    An excellent This Old House.com article provides interesting detail about contemporary wainscot materials, coatings, and dimensions; and includes the following comment, “A combination of decorative boards or panels and moldings that extend partway up a wall’s face, wainscoting is a centuries-old marriage of form and style. Dating to the 1300s, the Dutch used it to shield the bottom half of plaster walls from such hazards as jostled chairs, spurs on riding boots, perhaps even carelessly swung scabbards.”
