As any seasoned carpenter will tell you, installing crown molding is anything but a routine task. Unlike most moldings, which are attached flat to the wall, crown molding rests at an angle between the ceiling and wall. Because it “leans” at an angle, working with crown molding requires cutting compound angles, which can be a tricky operation. To complicate matters even more, walls and ceilings are seldom flat, square, and plumb.

In spite of these obstacles, it is possible to get great results when installing crown molding. Like most carpentry jobs, it just takes a little know-how.
