Panelling an old boiler room

[DavidRa]

Had to have a new exterior boiler installed this year leaving a 1.5mtr square room to be converted into a cloakroom/ storage room. The walls are a mess so need to panel but was unsure which way to go t&g solid wood or mdf. The room is unheated and windowless. Quite like the look of this panelling but unsure how it was achieved . Any insights would be appreciated.

The plastic wall panels are very popular nowadays and quite easy to fit . Obviously the costs can vary but so can the quality. If you want a real wood effect try a company called I believe the wood vaneer company

The accu panels are expensive but nice - 20% off atm

I had to make some Bead and Butt panelling out of MDF a while ago and asked a similar question, link here with a few different solutions mentioned

And this is the job it was for which sounds similar to what you are doing, in fact some of the details like shelf brackets were borrowed from the Bradshaw Joinery video your photo is from!
