"This is the most amazing company I have ever dealt with. I had so much stuff done by Radek. I had doors replaced, drywall, painting, staining even installing ceiling fans. There nothing he can’t do. If I could give 100 stars I would. He was so fast I don’t even think he took breaks he was professional and everytime I would find something else to fix he would just add it to the list and take care of it. He did such a good job on my house that the first people who came through to see it offered me full asking price. I would highly recommend using this company if you want your house to look professional and clean. The other thing that was so great is he never left a mess behind everytime he worked on something he cleaned it up and he was here at 7 on the dot every day. "

"Andrew came out quickly within the week I asked for a hand. He even came out on a Sunday to get my fascia fixed up. He also noticed another issue with the current fascia and used the extra material to fix that as well. Thank you Andrew"

"I found Ralph of KLK Carpentry on Angi and couldn’t be happier. He completed three major projects in my condo: custom built-in dining nook shelves and extensive wall trim/paneling in the living room and hallway. The craftsmanship is extremely detail-oriented and looked beautiful even before paint. I shared inspo photos (1.5” colonial trim spaced 2” in the living room and 2.5” hotel-style chair rail spaced 4” in the hallway), and he sourced trim even better than I envisioned. Of three quotes, his pricing was fair and competitive, and it included materials, which was so helpful. He’s insured, efficient, and highly professional. What truly sets him apart is his communication and temperament. He was responsive, calm, and reassuring throughout. Even when my vision shifted mid-project, he’d simply say, “Ok, no problem.” The entire process felt smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend him and will absolutely hire him again."

"Christopher Baugh was wonderful to work with and worthy of our trust, both practically and creatively. He was ALWAYS responsive to our inquiries, ideas, concerns, etc. Equally important, the crews who spent so much time in our home during the kitchen renovation were pleasant, kind, and generally arrived on time. They took any questions that we might arise to Christopher, receiving answers in a timely manner. During a reno that is important, since they are present for hours every day. Our expected timeline for the renovation was well met and we were always comfortable - as much as possible during a kitchen remodel! - feeling heard and respected. No question was too dumb or redundant and we really appreciated that. As a result we have a beautiful custom kitchen, with cabinets handcrafted by Christopher and I think everyone associated should be proud of their hard work. We can't wait to show it off!"

"CAB Remodeling responded promptly and came out within 24 hours to install our new entry door and storm door. Jose was courteous and very helpful after we had foolishly attempted this job on our own and after struggling with it for two days decided we needed a professional. CAB completed everything beautifully and pricing was extremely fair. I look forward to reaching out in the future and having them back to complete other projects in our house."

"I felt confident that they would do a good job. I was not on-site and left them alone in my condo to install the crown molding. They did keep in contact with me via text with questions and pictures. They were true professionals! They did an excellent job!!"

"Roman is very detailed and knowledgeable. I've never had a contractor who tried that hard to understand the job even before coming for a quote. Very easy to get a hold of as well which is rare for contractors from this site. Would highly recommend."

"I would highly recommend Chicago Reno. Our basement unfortunately had cracked cast iron pipes, and our basement was in shambles because of the plumbing work that was needed. We were looking for a contractor to put our once finished basement back together again. It was a complete tear down and renovation. The team at Chicago Reno are wonderful people. Ben in the office was very professional, very easy to talk with and always got back to me as soon as possible. The quote for the job and it’s timeline was fair, realistic, reasonable and no hidden costs. The crew that worked on my basement, Ivan and Renee were highly qualified, paid close attention to every detail and extremely respectful to me, my family and my home. They listened to me when I talked about ideas and concerns and always answered my questions clearly for me to understand. I fully trusted them to guide and help me through the process of our renovation. The crew was reliable, came out every day and stayed on schedule. I was completely ecstatic with the final product of our basement renovation project. The quality and craftsmanship put into the project went beyond my expectations. With being highly satisfied with the outcome of our basement, since then, we have called upon Chicago Reno for other smaller projects in our house. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with our home."

FAQs for interior trim and decorative moldings installation projects in South Elgin, 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.
