Crown Mould/Chair Rail - Trim Installations

We have recently fielded a number of questions
regarding crown mould toppers/wall crown
and chair rails. In the simplest of terms, we
prefer to install solid (not finger jointed) sections
of crown mould in either pine, oak or poplar.

Finger joint pine has a tendency to show
jointed sections when lacquered or painted
and also can have a tendency to vary in
profile once milled. What was 4 -5/8" one
week might be 4 -3/8 the next week at your
local lumber supply which can be real aggravating
to deal with when keeping a consistent look from
room to room or corner to corner.

Linear installation prices start at 5.00 per ft and
top out at around 7.50 per lineal foot.
It has been very difficult to source the popular
6 3/4 and 7" wide crown of late and we apologize
to clients on behalf of the lumber suppliers.

Exterior Season Winding Down...

We only have 1 month left for reasonable outdoor

painting conditions - make sure if considering

outdoor work that you get on top of those

projects before the really bad weather

settles in...

Cabinet Finishing vs Refacing

We often get asked the question...should I reface
or repaint my cabinetry ?

Repainting makes sense when you have cabinetry
that is still structurally sound, no moisture
damage and hardware is in good shape. Refacing
is worth considering when there is moisture
damage, poorly aligned and worn out hardware
and you are tired of the look of the existing
profiles and architectural detail.

Prices will vary but in general terms expect to
pay anywhere from $40-60.00 per cabinet door
for refinishing and anywhere from $180-800.00
per cabinet door for refacing depending on
options like raised panels, crown moulds, finishes
etc. We like to apply a general rule of thumb
for making this decision - if the cabinets are under
20 yrs old and still in decent condition - KEEP them -
if older and damaged - REFACE makes more sense.

Another tip....don't throw 50 or 60K at

a kitchen thinking when you flip your house

that you will get all that you spent back....there

is a such thing as "over-renovating".

Another Cabinet Transformation !

Colour Selected: River Rock Maple
HVLP Finishing of 30+ Cabinets

Total Cost: $2200.00

We still think the transformation from woodgrain veneer to
high-end waterborne lacquer is one of the best kitchen improvements
a homeowner can make ! Easy to clean, easy to touch up
and super fast dry time plus ecologically friendly.... !

All cabinet doors completed off site - not a speck of sanding dust left behind !

Going from medium to dark woodgrain to this colour
makes the kitchen brighter, larger and much more modern.

Great thanks to Rita C. for the project !
