Staircases are often an overlooked area when it comes to interior design, but with our stair panelling solutions, you can elevate this space into a true showpiece. Crafted from high-quality MDF, our panelling packs and mouldings offer a versatile and cost-effective way to infuse your stairway with character and sophistication.
If you are thinking about panelling your staircase walls, we can provide you with packs of MDF strips in a variety of lengths, thicknesses and widths which are designed to be easily customisable to fit your unique staircase dimensions. For a more traditional look, you could also choose from our decorative beading and dado rails which we can supply cut to length for you. Our wood panelling products are designed for straightforward installation, allowing you to tackle the project yourself or enlist the help of a professional. With high-quality materials, you can be confident in achieving a flawless, polished look that will impress your guests and elevate the overall aesthetic of your home. Don't settle for a plain and uninspiring staircase. Embrace the opportunity to create a stunning focal point that adds depth, character, and value to your living space.
While our stair panelling provides the most essential components needed to elevate your stairway, proper installation is key to achieving a seamless, professional-looking finish. Follow these step-by-step guidelines to ensure a successful shaker panel installation on your stairway walls. Remember to take your time, measure accurately, and enjoy the process of creating a beautiful, personalised space in your home.
Accurate measurements are crucial for a perfect fit. Before ordering your panelling pack, carefully measure the dimensions of your stairway walls, taking note of any obstacles, corners, or irregularities that may require custom cutting and make sure to order enough MDF strips and or beading and dado railing to cover the whole staircase.
Visualise the desired layout of your panels, considering the placement of each strip. You can draw on your walls with a pencil if this helps.
Ensure that your stairway walls are clean, dry, and free from any debris or irregularities that may interfere with the panel installation. Apply a suitable primer or sealer if necessary.
Once you have worked out the measurements of each panel, you will need to trim the MDF strips or beading to the required lengths. We recommend using a mitre block and saw for this to get the right angles and lengths. Take your time and double-check your measurements for a precise fit.
Apply adhesive to one side of the MDF strips or to the back of the moulding. Carefully position the panels onto the stairway walls, ensuring a level and secure fit. Use a rubber mallet to gently tap the panels into place if needed.
After allowing the adhesive to cure fully, use a high-quality wood filler to address any gaps or imperfections between the panels, beading, and dado rails. Smooth the filler with a putty knife, and caulk any remaining seams for a seamless finish.
If you need to, lightly sand the entire surface to prepare for the final finish. Choose a paint, stain, or varnish that complements the existing decor of your home.

I bought a glass splashback for my kitchin and I'm very happy with the product. Unfortunately, initially the product was damaged in transit and it took a while for customer service to respond to my request for help, but when they did there was no quibble and a second one was manufactured and despatched and arrived safely.

Overall, a good company to deal with.
Overall, dealing with CutMy was a good experience. Very competitive prices and on the two occasions where it was necessary for me to speak to someone, the individuals were polite, knowlegable and quickly resolved my difficulties. Only an "observation", not a "complaint" - the website seems over complicated. Certainly, I would recommend them to others.

Marine ply custom cut tank lid - highly recommended
Second time ordering from here. They have a really wide range of materials to suit any use and it’s really easy and quick to enter your measurements and any special requests (cut outs, rounded edges, surface finishes). Like my last order the dispatch was much quicker than the original estimate and arrived very well packaged. Highly recommend this company if you want a custom cut material or even just don’t trust your own cutting of something easy.

Great website and service
Great website that allows you to order and cut acrylic sheets.
My shower panel had broken, which sits infront of the shower valves, and I couldnt find a replacement.
I ordered the same size acrylic sheet and included the cutouts for the valve knobs. It takes a while to arrive which is understandable as it is custom. However the measurements were perfect, it fit like a glove. The acrylic is high quality and durable, and cut very smoothly.

Excellent quality, excellent value
Only used Cut My twice but each time it jhas been a great success. I use them to make me protective tops for expensive furniture, cheaper and lighter than glass and you would never know the differnece. They're marvellous a t what they do. With a whole range of options for rdgibgs etc, but I'm tight fisted, and they're great value too. Strongly reccomend using them, give them a try, I di, and I'm over the moon.
