What Is Crown Molding?

Crown molding is another word for a cornice—that is, the piece of material that sits on top of a vertical wall and joins it with the ceiling. Not all homes have crown molding, and it’s not a mandatory part of a home build, so if you don’t see any in your residence, that’s why! The good news is that molding can be added at any time.

Mr. Handyman has found that in general, for crown molding installation in East Greenville and the surrounding areas, wood wall molding in a step style remains one of the most common choices. There’s good reason for that; this style is popular nationwide for its classic charm, and the stairstep visuals add some architectural elegance that can make the room seem bigger. Other options include:

  • Polyurethane
  • Metal
  • Composite
  • MDF
  • Vinyl
  • Polystyrene

Crown molding serves multiple purposes. Many people like it because it adds some extra square footage to the room by expanding the area where the wall meets the ceiling. This might not seem like a big deal, but it goes a long way toward making a room appear more open and spacious. Some crown molding is hollow, which allows homeowners to use it to conceal cords, wires, or other unsightly features to create a refined, seamless look.

When You Need a Handyman for Crown Molding

Crown molding is a project you could DIY, but it’s better to trust the task to the professionals. If you wanted to handle this installation yourself, you’d need to keep a few important things in mind:

  • The molding needs to be cut, which requires not just precision and experience but also the right tools
  • Failure to cut molding properly could lead to a poor fit or gaps that look unappealing, reducing home value
  • Molding must be anchored correctly to prevent it from falling down and injuring someone or breaking things
  • You’ll need to actually acquire the molding and transport it; for most walls, that’s 8-foot pieces or larger. Can you fit that in your vehicle?

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Crown molding must be cut to size for each room. This can be even more complex when rooms contain unique shapes or alcoves. No matter whether the room’s edges are simple or more complicated, the molding will need to be cut at angles to make sure it joins with both the walls and the other molding pieces correctly. At this stage, it’s important to find the studs in the wall as well. After the molding is cut, it is affixed directly to the wall so that it makes a seamless connection with the ceiling. It can be attached using either glue or screws; glue is less resilient, but screws require additional putty to cover them so they don’t stand out.
