Crown Molding Addition in Auburndale, FL
Crown molding addition in Auburndale, FL. Finish refaced cabinets with a built-in look above the cabinet tops. Free estimates.
Serving Auburndale and nearby communities.
Crown Molding Addition finishes out cabinet tops with a profile that gives refaced or existing cabinetry a built-in look instead of a flat, open gap to the ceiling. It's a common last step on a refacing project, but we also install it standalone on cabinets that never had crown to begin with.
Auburndale Cabinet Refacing cuts and fits molding to each kitchen's specific cabinet layout and ceiling height rather than using pre-cut stock lengths. Corners and run lengths rarely match standard pieces exactly.

Customer prep: clear cabinet tops of any stored items so our crew has full access to the mounting surface.

Materials
Materials and methods for Crown Molding Addition

Crown Molding Profiles
A range of profiles add decorative detail above cabinetry, from simple coves to layered designs.

Wood Molding Strips
Solid wood strips hold paint and stain well and resist warping better than lightweight substitutes in Florida humidity.

Molding Adhesive
Construction adhesive secures molding firmly before nailing, reducing gaps over time.

Finish Nails
Finish nails provide the mechanical hold molding needs above cabinet tops.

Matching Stain or Paint
Finish is matched to existing cabinetry so the molding reads as original, not added on.

Corner Molding Blocks
Corner blocks simplify fitting at complex cabinet angles where mitered corners would be difficult.
