EJ Carpentry & Maintenance designs and installs custom timber ceilings and wall battens across Perth Metro — from alfresco ceiling linings to feature acoustic slat walls. We integrate cleanly with lighting, air-conditioning and existing architecture for a warm, modern finish.
From battened feature walls to patio and alfresco ceiling linings, timber adds warmth and texture that flat plaster can't match. We custom-fit every job to the space — cutting cleanly around lighting, air vents and existing architecture rather than working around them awkwardly.
Finishes range from natural oils that showcase the grain through to durable clear coats built to handle outdoor exposure, so the finish suits both the look you want and where it's installed.
There's more than one way to bring timber into a ceiling or wall — here's how the main options compare:
| Timber Battens | Slat Cladding Panels | Solid Board Lining | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Look | Individual strips with visible gaps — strong linear feature | Consistent pre-set slat pattern | Continuous timber surface, minimal gaps |
| Best for | Feature walls, room dividers, acoustic treatment | Larger walls needing a uniform look | Alfresco & patio ceilings, full coverage |
| Install time | Moderate — depends on spacing/detailing | Faster once layout is set | Longer — full coverage, more fixing points |
We plan batten spacing or slat layout to suit the space and your brief.
Lighting and air-conditioning positions are mapped before we start fixing.
Timber is cut, fitted and fixed with consistent spacing and clean lines.
A finish suited to the location — natural oil indoors, durable coats outdoors.

Battens are individual timber strips fixed with gaps between them, often used to create a feature wall or acoustic effect. Slat cladding is usually a pre-assembled panel system. We can advise which suits your space and budget.
Yes — alfresco and patio ceiling linings are one of our most common timber ceiling jobs. We select timber and finishes suited to outdoor exposure so it holds up to Perth's sun and weather.
Yes — we coordinate with electricians and air-conditioning placement so battens, slats and cladding line up cleanly around fixtures rather than being cut around awkwardly.
A single feature wall typically takes one to two days; a full ceiling lining depends on the area and detailing involved. We'll give you a clear timeframe as part of your quote.
