Painted and ready

We leave every package caulked and prepped for paint. One trade, one invoice. Your painter walks in to a clean surface.

Questions

What profiles do you carry?
We source from Guy C. Lee Millwork in Clayton, NC. Their stock covers most traditional and transitional profiles in paint-grade MDF and select pine. If you have a specific profile in mind, bring photos and we will match it.
Can I mix packages?
Yes. Crown in the main areas and wainscoting in the dining room is a common combination. We price each package separately and schedule them together so the crew makes one trip.
Do packages include paint?
No. Every package is caulked and primed at the joints, ready for your painter. If you need a painter referral we are happy to connect you.
What if my ceiling is not 8 feet?
The room crown package is priced for 8-foot ceilings. Taller or coffered ceilings are quoted individually after the measure visit.
How long does installation take?
Most single-room packages finish in 1 day. Whole-floor or whole-house scopes are 2 to 4 days. Wainscoting rooms vary with wall length.
