A lot of people give me a blank look when I casually throw this term into conversation!

That said, some people use it horizontally too. It has become very popular as a way to add character to bare walls and ceilings! It can be used full height or half height or anywhere in between!

In rooms where there is moisture however, like a bathroom, a timber lining board is more appropriate and practical. TV walls are notoriously hard to get right due to the mess of cables. Adding VJ behind your wall mounted TV and entertainment unit is a great way to pull the whole look together. So easy! My carpenter simply glued this onto the wall with a few nails for extra strength. Hallways and entries by their very nature get a lot of action and lining their walls with VJ can be a great way to make them a bit tougher against all the knocks and scuffs!

Mounting wall hooks on top of VJ, like in this image below, is a great way to create a mudroom look without having an entire room dedicated to your coats and hats! Lining your entry with VJ is a low cost way to really improve the first impression of your home and to get an idea if you like it before using it in larger areas.

Building and Pest Inspection. Arrange a Building Inspection. View Sample Reports Detailed, easy to understand reports. VJ stands for vertical join, and is also known as tongue and groove panelling.

It is a common element on interior walls in many Queensland homes but used to be less commonly seen in the southern states. Available at most hardware stores or timber yards, it can be installed by an experienced handyman or a builder at a reasonable cost.

It's not just for walls either. VJ panelling can be applied to any surface in the home, including ceilings, fireplaces, wall niches and kitchen islands.

VJ panelling lines the entrance halls in this light and bright renovated Queenslander and continues into the living spaces. VJ panelling decorating ideas are endless. Painted white, it is a relatively simple way to give a house architectural depth without knocking down walls or adding expensive or complex structures.

Painted a bold colour, VJ panelling makes a strong statement on a kitchen island and the contours of the tongue and groove design adds acoustic buffering where otherwise smooth surfaces might not.

Even in the bathroom, VJ panelling can soften walls and add interest, as seen in this coastal calm bathroom. Contrasting colour features on the panelled vanity unit. Especially where there are high ceilings, vertical panelling draws the eye upwards to take full advantage of the height and make a space appear larger.
