"I contacted him on the Next door App to replace an exterior storm door. He came on October 29 or so and put in the door. The door wasnt long enough so, I he had to order a piece and I had to give him an extra $53. He said hed come back on Monday or whenever the piece came to caulk the door everything else its now January 2. He never came back with the piece. He never came back to caulk the door. Hes not responding to m. as of December 6., he said the part was coming in a couple days and he would contact me to finish the job and never did and now hes not answering any phone calls or text messages. Never got a receipt any type of paperwork anything cause he was supposed to come back and caulk the door and finish with the PC ordered. I have text message from him the whole time saying he ordered the piece showing me. It was taking some time to get here that he is gonna come back and finish in nothing. "

"Ray came out and did a thorough look over of our porch and only fixed what was needed. I really appreciated this since other people wanted to replace the whole porch and be instead focused on what was needed. He also did the work himself along with a partner so good to know the person you hire does the work. We had some back and forth challenges in getting a hold of one another that took a longer to start the work than we wanted but once we connected Ray did a great job. We were unhappy with one board so he replaced it when we asked with no complaints. Ray is a nice guy who is honest and does quality work."

"Received call that he was going to be in the area early and wanted to know if I could have work starting earlier. I agreed. He came by the house, measured the door, went to store to purchase replacement, and installed new door all in about three hours. The old door was a nonstandard size so he got a size that he made fit. He did a great job. We are pleased with the work."

FAQs for interior trim and decorative moldings installation projects in Chicago, IL

Installing crown molding can be challenging, depending on the material and your skill level. Lightweight materials like polystyrene and softwoods are easier for homeowners to install themselves, offering a cost-saving option. However, heavier materials like hardwoods and plaster are difficult to work with and require professional installation to achieve a high-quality result. Precision is crucial in measuring, cutting, and fitting crown molding, so hiring a professional ensures the best outcome.

Crown molding is available at various price points, ranging from $1 to $30 per linear foot, depending on the material. This wide range offers options for every budget. Affordable materials like MDF, PVC, and polystyrene provide cost-effective solutions, while premium materials like exotic hardwoods or metal offer a luxurious appearance at a higher cost. Regardless of your budget, you can find crown molding that enhances your home's aesthetic.

Crown molding is installed by professional finish carpenters or painters who specialize in detailed trim work. These experts possess the necessary skills and tools to ensure precise measurements, accurate cuts, and seamless installation. By hiring a professional, you can achieve a flawless finish that enhances your home's aesthetic appeal without the risk of common DIY mistakes.

Crown molding can be installed in various areas of your house to add elegance and architectural interest. It is commonly used where walls meet the ceiling, but you can also place crown molding around doors, windows, mirrors, and atop cabinets. Installing crown molding in these locations enhances visual appeal, creates a cohesive design, and adds a touch of sophistication to your home's interior.

To determine how much crown molding to purchase, start by measuring the length of each wall where you plan to install crown molding and add the measurements together to determine the total linear feet required. Purchase an extra 10% of material to account for waste from cutting angles and to ensure seamless joints by using full-length pieces when possible. Including additional material helps avoid shortages and ensures a smooth installation process.

For a professional crown molding installer, this task takes about 1 to 3 hours per room, depending on size and complexity. Factors like the material, design intricacy, and number of corners can affect the time. If you're doing it yourself, expect it to take longer as you get the hang of measuring and cutting precise angles. Advanced measuring and planning or hiring a pro can help the project go smoothly.
