"Tracy installed both crown molding and baseboards throughout my home. The quality of work was excellent and I would definitely recommend him to others. He was able to match some existing crown molding and made a nice transition where the wall thicknesses changed. My older home feels so much more updated now!!"

"After 3 other estimates for above mentioned work for painting, mirror removal, and crown installation Steve came in with a very reasonable work estimate and work timeline. He worked  with me on my schedule and accommodated extra work I asked for.
Overall work done was great, no complaints. Would use his services again.

"Everyone was professional, prompt and couteous. However, the inspector didn't have a ladder when he arrived. Apparentlyl I was suposed to tell them they needed to bring a ladder. He offered to come back with a ladder, but upon further questioning, it turns out that unless your attic is finished or has walking boards installed, they can't go up there at all. They just shine the light around and look for signs."

"Mr. Birch couldn't have been nicer.  When there was a question about the grout color, he took the time to meet me at the home supply store so that I could  feel more comfortable about the color selection. This job is, by its very nature, a messy one, but  care was taken to seal off the area with plastic to help control the dust raised by the machine.  This definitely helped, but anyone considering having a similar job done should be aware that there is still dust  that must be handled by the homeowner.  He gave detailed instructions on what to do once the grout cured.
The garage repair was pretty straightforward, but was also done neatly and professionally.
All in all, a very positive experience and we've already asked for estimates on additional home repairs we'd like done in the future.

"Mr. Mike himself saved us. We paid and had an installation scheduled after purchasing a new Range Hood from Home Depot but was surprised that on the day of the install, no one showed up! We waited for a Home Depot Contractor to arrive all day.... finally after several hours of waiting contacted their service office to find that resolution wouldn't happen for several days and we had a planned graduation party the following day. Thought of Mike and contacted him... he came over right away and installed the hood range. His price was extremely reasonable. Home Depot's installation price was $150 and Mike's price was $60. So as I initially started out by saying, Mike saved the day! Our family would like to do business again! Thanks, Mike!"

"I purchased the Big Deal on 6/4/15 for $1499. I spoke to Stephanie that day and arranged for Dan Belletto to come to the house on 6/23/15 to measure my shower (75 SF by his measurements). He let me know that there would be additional charges associated with this Big Deal.  I told Dan that I wanted to have a niche and a frameless shower door at this meeting (and an exhaust fan moved but I later decided not to do this because it was too expensive).  I was hoping that he would bring the 5 samples of tile that I could choose from (as was mentioned in the deal), but he said that I was responsible for purchasing the tile with a $350 budget. He recommended "The Tile Shop," in Lynnhaven Mall, as a good source for purchasing the tile.  I soon discovered that the $350 allotted for the tile would not be nearly enough to cover my needs so I paid for the additional tile myself.  The job began on July 1st and Clarence, my tile man, said that he would be done by Saturday July 4th.  There were some setbacks because the Tile Shop forgot to give Clarence my entire order.  They (The Tile Shop) forgot the niche and later on I realized that they also had forgotten the backsplash that I wanted to use for the niche.  I only discovered this after Clarence had tiled the inside of the niche with the wall tile.  He offered to undo it but I decided not to and just cancelled the backsplash part of the order. I had to order additional tile twice during this job which was frustrating because it added almost $200 and an extra week.  Clarence had to make at least one trip/day to Home Depot to purchase items for the job which reduced the amount of time that he had to work.  It would have been better if he had been more prepared.   This process has been much longer and much more expensive than I ever imagined. The Angie's List Big Deal was supposed to include 5 different options for tile but instead, I was given a $350 budget that was insufficient to tile my shower (I have spent over $700 in tile alone and I chose one of the least expensive options.  $200 of this was due to underestimating the amount of tile necessary for the job. I was also charged $53 for insulation (much of which was not even used). The quote for the extra costs that were included by the contractor were the following:
Install new shower body valve (homeowner to provide) $200
Install new exhaust fan (contractor to provide) $200 (we didn't do this)
Install custom niche $150
Repair ceiling  $200 (not done due to cost)
Total=   $750.00 in additional charges
My extra costs were:
$350 for extra tile needed to finish the job
$192 for the Shower Valve
$200 to build the opening to fit the frameless shower door
$50 for insulation
$150 for custom niche
$200 to install the new shower body valve
$400 for the frameless shower door (PLUS $200 for them to install it)
Total Cost for the new shower:  $1499 (Big Deal Cost) + $1742 = $3241.00
I was disappointed because I had stated that I wanted to put in a frameless shower door and was later told (after my written quote) that it would be an additional $200 for this to be done.  I was also disappointed because I had to spend more than twice the budget figure for the tile (and the square footage was below the quoted allowance at 75 SF).  Additionally, the shower door was installed backwards the first time and had to be re-installed which added time and the grout does not match the rest of the shower.  On 9/14/15 I requested to have Clarence come back to put in the missing screw to hold up the door.  All screws were there when he installed the door the first time but he has never come.
 Installing the door was really a 2-person job.  Clarence, the tile guy, was overextended.  Belletto Construction should allow their installers to finish a job before having them move on to a new one.  This job would have been completed on time if they had not overbooked my tile guy. On the whole, he did a good job but was unable to finish in a timely manner due to possible scheduling conflicts that were beyond his control.  I would suggest to Mr. Belletto that he complete a current job before beginning another.

FAQs for baseboard installation projects in Portsmouth, VA

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.
