Featured Reviews for Crown Molding Installers in Illinois

Top Drawer Carpentry LLC
Crown Molding Installers in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 15, 2014
“Beautiful work! Top Drawer added crown molding to our family room addition. He matched the existing molding in the living room and dining room perfectly. His price was very fair and his attention to detail was exactly what I was looking for. Very professional.”
Garman Painting Custom Decorating
Crown Molding Installers in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 8, 2015
“Mike painted most of the interior of my house. He was very professional in all respects from the signing of the contract through completion. He repaired several coats of peeling and cracked plaster resulting from a leak (prior to new roof) from the attic into the living room ceiling. The job is so perfect that there is no longer any evidence of the leak. He helped me pick out colors and suggested a couple of color changes resulting in a more attractive appearance than if I had insisted on my original choice. He even replaced two ceiling light fixtures as well. I highly recommend Mike Garman for your painting needs!”

“I hired PJ Carpentry to replace trim around a three car garage. He was responsive, did not go over estimate, was clean, and did an excellent job. I requested use of Azek and he used the material that I requested. I recommend PJ carpentry.”

“I have used this Company many times over the past couple of years. I have been completely satisfied for every project they completed which range from floor refinishing, deck rebuilding, painting, electrical etc.. There is nothing they can't do and they are meticulous and always leave my house in perfect condition. I highly recommend them.”
Nest Construction
Crown Molding Installers in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 6, 2013
“Nest Construction Took my plain, boring deck area and transformed it into a fantastic outdoor living space. The owner, Bryan, and his team constructed bush and tree planters, privacy screens, and couches. Bryan stayed within the agreed-upon budget and the work is very high quality. I would recommend Nest Construction for all types of patio/deck work as well as interior carpentry projects.”
Midwest Trimworks

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 21, 2015
“Midwest Trimworks provided an exceptional experience from estimate to project completion. They were able to exceed expectations on a very challenging project and did so in a timely manner. We especially appreciate being consulted while the project was being executed to ensure that the work met our expectations. Midwest Trimworks is punctual, professional, highly-skilled and creative. We would not hesitate recommending them, or employing them again. World-class!”

“I've known Mike for going on 8 years now, and over that time he's done a lot of work for me. He is absolutely meticulous and can tackle the most difficult of situations. His work is spot on perfect. His attention to detail is unmatched and he often makes design recommendations that I haven't considered, but turned out to be far better than the designs or ideas I originally proposed. Perhaps the most important traits to consider (besides skill of course) when hiring someone to work on your home is honesty and integrity--he's one of the best people I've ever worked with and I have complete trust in him. You will not be disappointed if you hire Mike to do some work for you and your friends and neighbors will be so jealous when they see what he's done!!”

“Chris created some built-in shelves and a desk for us in our third bedroom/office and fixed some door issues we were having. Overall I was very happy with the work completed and I'd recommend Chris for other jobs. He was communicative, courteous, on time, and completed the work when he said it was going to be done. His prices are competitive and he's willing to work with you to figure out a solution to your needs with the constraints you have.”
Artisan Element
Crown Molding Installers in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 24, 2019
“A friend recommended that we contact Eddie and his Artisan Element (AE) crew to complete our kitchen remodeling project. Our prior contractor had poorly performed and abandoned the project. AE recommended several modifications which substantially improved the appearance of the finished product and completed the project in a timely, professional manner at a reasonable cost.”

“Rich Freeman completely rehabbed two condos for me, including hardwood floors, new kitchens, bricking a fireplace, completely redoing 3 bathrooms, all new windows and tons of trim work as well as new doors and an outdoor surround for the condo complex. His workmanship is superb and his pricing is more than fair. Rich is completely trustworthy and ethical. I guarantee you will be extremely satisfied with his work!”

Carpenter FAQs
The duration depends on the size and complexity of the project. A single, straightforward room might be completed in a day, while more extensive or intricate installations can take several days. Factors that can affect the timeline include the type of material being installed, the need for custom cuts or designs, and the roomʼs layout. Your installer should provide a project timeline after assessing the scope of work.
Selecting the right material—such as wood, plaster, or polyurethane—depends on your budget, the style of your home, and whether the molding will be painted or stained. Wood is classic and can be stained but might be more susceptible to environmental changes. Polyurethane is more affordable and resistant to moisture. Plaster, though more expensive, offers a high-end, custom look. To stay abreast of design trends, consult with your installer, browse home design magazines, or explore platforms like Pinterest and Houzz for inspiration.
Clear the room of furniture or cover items to protect against dust and damage. Remove old molding and ensure walls are smooth and clean. Discuss with your installer if any electrical work, like installing new lighting or moving outlets, should be completed before the molding installation. Finally, confirm all details regarding the material, design, and timeline with your installer.
Professional installers are skilled at tackling issues like uneven walls or irregular ceiling angles. They may use techniques such as scribing to ensure tight joints and a seamless look or employ flexible molding materials in areas with curves. For complex challenges, installers can fabricate custom pieces to ensure the molding perfectly fits the space. Effective communication between the homeowner and the installer is key to resolving any challenges swiftly.
Yes, but material selection is crucial. Polyurethane or PVC molding is recommended for high humidity areas because these materials are water-resistant and wonʼt warp, swell, or deteriorate in moist conditions, unlike traditional wood molding.
Absolutely. While bulky molding can overwhelm a room with low ceilings, choosing a slimmer profile can add character without making the space feel cramped. Itʼs also helpful to paint the molding the same color as the ceiling to create the illusion of height. A skilled installer can recommend the best designs and techniques for making the most of your space.
