My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Crown Molding

10 years ago
Could you tell me the size of the molding used to create the crown molding? Also, how tall were the ceilings?

    Thanks so much for your inquiry! That information was part of the General Contractor's scope and I do not have it.

    Should Crown Molding be even from room to room? I have the skinny Crown that was installed years ago. My house is old and I'm having some renovations done. When the contractors reinstalled the molding in my living room dining room combination it's about 5-10 inches lower in the dining room. I want it even. Am I being to picky by asking this? Please advise!!

    On each level of the home it should be the same so if you took it to another floor, you could do a variation but other wise I would try to keep it all the same. There are some exceptions to this but overall the rule of thumb is to be the same.

    Thanks for your reply 30A, I thought so but I just didn't want to seem unreasonable or too picky. Even though I'm spending a heck of a lot of money and want the project done right.
