Crown molding on 8' ceilings?
Comments (16)Thank you all! OK, another crown molding question, please. What would you guys do? This is the situation: We are in process of a huge kitchen remodel. We removed the wall between our kitchen and dining room, now it's nice and open but still seems like "two rooms", I guess because the floors will be different (the dining room has an oak hardwood floor) and also because there is a supporting beam and bulkhead (soffit) at the ceiling between the two "rooms". Soooo, if I put crown molding up in the kitchen, should I carry it through to the dining room, too? I'm OK with that, and I think it would look lovely, just wondering your thoughts? But MOST of all... if I do it in both of those rooms, what about the living room? Our living room is off of the dining room, through a large archway. However, unlike the kitchen and dining room, the livingroom is BIG... and I was thinking of putting 6" crown molding up in there. BUT, I think 6" would be too wide in the kitchen/dining room area. SOOOO, how important is it that the crown molding be the same size, between rooms that are visible to each other? PLEASE ADVISE! Thank you very much!

Comments (37)I thought I would provide an update - Cabinet installer, after refusing to accept responsibility for his actions has been "relieved of his duties" and the problem has been resolved by the contractor. See picture below - still needs some clean up but is much much better. Thanks to all for reassuring me that I am not completely bonkers....See MoreInstallation costs for doors?
Comments (3)Hmmm...the same person is also installing new storm doors for my Dad and is charging just $70. each. Last year when he had his windows replaced that person wanted $200. each for the same thing. Guess if you have no clue how to do it yourself you'll have to find somebody that will do it for a decent price,huh? Thanks for your replies....See Morenaive question -- how tall uppers for 101'' ceiling?
Comments (5)Breezy: It does help; I think I understand but let me check. Are your cabs face-frame? If so, then I think your cabinet maker is saying he plans to attach trim (crown molding?) to the face frame, attaching it about 1" above the doors? And that the top of the door would be about 4" below the ceiling? Thanks! A_D...See More- 4 years agolast modified: 4 years ago
