TIP
Wall coverings can be as simple as drywall or as decorative as beaded paneling. Drywall and related wall covering sheets evolved about 100 years ago as an alternative to interior plastering. Two experienced workers can drywall an entire house in a day or two, as opposed to the week or more it would take to apply plaster to interior walls. Basically, drywall is made from gypsum plaster pressed between two thick sheets of paper, then kiln-dried. Some panels use fiberglass instead of paper or alter materials to increase moisture resistance, fire retardation, and sound blockage. Ring’s End carries many different kinds of these wall sheet covering products, as well as a full array of drywalling tools. Besides drywall, the next most common wall and ceiling covering is wood paneling. Ring’s End carries many different types of paneling for wainscoting or for covering entire walls and ceilings.

Five Often-Overlooked Considerations
1. Accessibility
Cabinet configurations should be designed for your family's specific needs, as for physical restrictions, ease of access, or making room for multiple cooks.
2. Use Patterns
Cabinet design should reflect the layout and design of the room and space. The cabinetry interiors and accessories can be arranged so the items used most frequently are located for maximum convenience.
3. Maintenance
Some cabinetry materials, styles and finishes are easier to clean than others. Countertops, like-wise can vary as to their maintenance needs. Let the Ring’s End Kitchen & Bath specialists advise you about what’s right for your family.
4. Lighting
Even rooms suffused with natural light can have dark corners – and of course natural light disappears when the sun goes down. Many new options in cabinet lighting increase kitchen and bath functionality and beauty at any time of the day.
5. The Rest of Your House
If you are remodeling a kitchen or bath, you’ll want to think about how its style fits with the aesthetics of your entire home. Do you prefer consistency from room to room, or are you happy with an eclectic mix of styles? What about cabinet storage in the Laundry? Or cabinetry for a new home office? We can help you with all of your needs.
