Crown molding
Install crown molding to define the ceiling line with a profile suited to room scale. Account for ceiling irregularities and corner geometry when deciding between a simple run and a built-up detail.
START WITH THE DETAILS
What goes into
the work.
Measure lengths, heights and counts separately. Mark corners, openings and attachment locations. Structural work and concealed framing need review.
Typical scope to confirm
- Measure ceiling perimeter and corners
- Select profile and projection
- Fit joints and returns with agreed finish preparation

PERMIT PLANNING
Usually cosmetic work
Usually a finish-only scope when the structure, room use and utilities stay unchanged. This is a starting classification, not an address-specific exemption; confirm any related regulated work before starting.
- Opening walls or changing structural support
- Moving or adding wiring, plumbing or ventilation
- Historic exterior restrictions or regulated-material removal
ENGINEERING & DESIGN
Engineering is not usually needed
Engineering is not usually part of this finish-only scope. Stop for review if hidden damage, structural changes or unusual support loads are found.
- New structural work or damaged framing
- Unverified heavy-load support
Confirm requirements with the city or county responsible for the property before work begins. The address, exact scope and adopted code determine the final requirements.
