Baseboard, Trim, & Molding

We’re proud to be known as your favorite local painting company in Denver, but our scope of know-how goes far beyond painting and ventures into related work, like baseboard, trim, and molding installation. Fresh paint can revitalize a room, but new trim or molding? Well, that can elevate your space and enhance your home’s architecture while adding to its character. It seems like a small change, in theory, but once you see new trim in place, scuff-free and perfectly aligned, you’ll agree that it’s the perfect finishing touch to any interior project.

Types of Ornamental Molding

Trim, molding, and baseboards are all forms of ornamental molding that have been used for centuries to bring visual appeal and to add more dynamic design to living spaces. These additional strips of material can seem basic, but when you’re in a room without them, you’ll notice. They lend an undeniable air of elegance and sophistication that few other things can.

Ornamental molding gives a room a polished, finished look. And different types of molding can convey different aesthetic approaches. Some examples of ornamental molding that the team at Colorado Painting Company can install for you include:

• Crown Molding: Used where walls meet ceilings, as a cabinet topper, or as a way to frame entryways. Crown molding can make a space feel taller and larger, with profiles that range from ornate to sleek and simple.

• Trim: From very simple and streamlined to more decorative, trim is a versatile ornamental molding that can be used to frame windows and doors and can also be used for design details like wall panels.

• Baseboards: Seen where walls meet floors, baseboards offer a tidy appearance and tie up loose ends between various materials in transition areas. Baseboards also protect walls and can be used to tie rooms together.

• Chair Rail: This use of molding acts as a protection for your painted walls against scuffing from chairs and other furniture. Chair rails can serve an ornamental purpose too, and lend a traditional warmth and charm to your home.

• Wainscoting: This semi-ornamental paneling did originally serve a practical purpose, but has since become more of an aesthetic choice. Wainscoting typically extends from about the lower third of the wall to the floor and can be as simple or complex as you prefer for your room’s design.

• Shiplap: Similar to wainscoting but offering a more rustic feel is shiplap, a popular form of interior wall covering that makes for a nice accent wall. Panels fit tightly together and can be applied either horizontally or vertically.

Adding trim, molding, baseboards or a form of decorative wall covering can breathe new life into your living spaces.

Our Process

Add the character you’ve been missing or update older decor with Colorado Painting Company’s expert trim, molding, and baseboard installation services. We’ll handle every step of the process too–from initial design and prepwork to installation, touch up and cleaning.

DIY vs. Professional Installation

It is certainly possible for a homeowner to install and paint their own molding, trim or baseboard, but it is a time-consuming and very detailed process. One slight mistake measuring, cutting, or painting can cause hours of wasted time and ruined materials, resulting in lost resources and frustration. If ceilings are especially high, attempting to install molding without proper safety techniques or equipment can be risky or dangerous. And what you may save on labor, you could end up spending on all the various materials you have to purchase, especially since you won’t likely be getting a contractor’s rate. Instead of starting a project and opting for installation halfway through, when non-level floors or odd angles make it difficult, just go for expert installation from your local professionals at Colorado Painting Company from the start. You’ll get beautiful results that will look great for years to come.

Calculating Cost

As with any interior remodeling project, the cost to install trim, baseboards, and ornamental molding will vary based on factors like chosen materials, size of trim, size of your room, needed repairs, accessibility, site prep, labor rates, debris removal, and final painting and finishing. You’re paying for an upgrade that will last for many years to come and will play a pivotal role in the beauty and practicality of your space, so it needs to be done right the first time. All in all, the average cost of molding installation can have a wide range, anywhere from several hundred to several thousand dollars.
