Scott’s Faux Slate Wainscot

Scott’s Faux Slate Wainscot

Scott Adamson upgraded the exterior of Ace Athletics Tennis Academy with a clean, professional faux slate wainscot using GenStone’s Desert Sunrise panels. Installed along the lower portion of the façade, the stone finish adds visual weight and durability while giving the building a more polished, upscale appearance. The warm, natural tones of Desert Sunrise pair well with the neutral siding above, creating a balanced look that enhances curb appeal and reinforces a strong first impression for customers and visitors.

A faux slate wainscot is an ideal solution for commercial properties looking to elevate exterior design without the cost or complexity of traditional masonry. GenStone panels deliver the authentic texture and color variation of natural slate while remaining lightweight, low maintenance, and easy to install. This makes them especially well suited for storefronts, offices, and other business exteriors where durability and appearance both matter.

The installation process was efficient and DIY-friendly thanks to GenStone’s panelized system. The lightweight panels allowed for fast, consistent installation with minimal disruption to the business. Expert tip:When ending a wainscot run on an open wall, installing trim vertically creates a clean stop point and ensures the finished edge looks intentional and professional.
