Eileen Kuzak Knapp on Jun 08, 2014It depends on whether or not it's adhered to cement walls. If they are, you might have to find a fixative glue that will hold it up. I not, use finishing nails and caulk to fill in the nail holes.Helpful Reply

SLS Construction & Building Solutions LLC on Jun 08, 2014Can you please tell us what type of bead-board? is it panelized, loose, or? Shoot does it slide into a groves on the rails & molding? What is the shape of the existing paneling - is it wavy, straight, or... In short the answer is probably not unless there is something behind it to really act as a backer - don't also forget that any product will expand & contract so make sure you allow for that, whether using nails, adhesive or a combination.Helpful Reply
