Is it as easy as it looks? Our hallway is massive high ceilings, and to redecorate means painting the full lot, i was thinking about getting some dado rail so we can replace the bottom paper and paint it when it needs it instead of having to pay someone to re paper the full lot.

Its just the angles of the cuts for up the right hand side of the stairs x2 that im concerned about, the rest of it is straight lines so i reckon theyll be quite easy to do.

Wickes seems the cheapest place? And would MDF be better than wood as it wont have knots in it etc?

Any advice appreciated as need to get cracking on it, Finleys just ripped a big chunk of paper off the bottom today.
