wood panel wall renovation

[Ginger]

we just sheeted over the top of them.

We did 2 things. Firstly tried to fill the gaps with spakfilla and then paint over the top. Didn't look too bad. Another section we didn't worry and just painted over the top, which I think looks better because it's 'cleaner' I.e
doesn't look like we've tried to hide the panelling. If you go with the spakfilla option, do small area at a time and finish off well. And sand back.

Depends on your house, I think when prepared well and painted can look nice - very beachy actually which suits houses here where we are but depends where you are! IN our old house we took them off and had to replace plaster on one wall. Is it just one room or lots of it??
