Frequently asked questions

What is foam crown moulding?

Foam crown moulding is crown moulding with a lightweight foam core instead of solid wood or plaster. NuCrown mouldings have an EPS (expanded polystyrene) core with a plaster-based coating, so they are light to handle, easy to cut and ready to paint.

What size crown moulding should I choose for my ceiling height?

As a starting point, 4"–5" suits ceilings under 8 ft, 5"–7" suits 8 ft ceilings, 8"–9" suits 9 ft ceilings, and 9" and up suits ceilings 10 ft and taller. Larger profiles (9" to 14") are available on request. Contact us for pricing and shipping. The right size also depends on the room and your existing trim, so compare the profile and order a sample box before you buy a full pack.

Can I use foam crown moulding above kitchen cabinets?

Yes, a smaller profile such as 4" is a common choice above kitchen cabinets. Measure the clearance between the cabinets and the ceiling first, and order a sample box to check the fit.

How do I install foam crown moulding?

Measure, cut the pieces with a miter saw or a miter box and handsaw, and bond them with drywall compound or Alex Flex Moulding and Trim Sealant, adding support nails if needed. Then fill the joints, sand lightly and paint. See the installation guide for the full steps.

Can crown moulding be painted?

Yes. NuCrown mouldings are ready to paint: apply two coats of good-quality flat paint. A primer is not required.

Are the mouldings available in 8 ft lengths?

Yes. All profiles are also available in 8 ft lengths. For 8 ft pricing and shipping, please contact us directly at 888-412-3268 or info [at] nucrownmouldings.com. 8 ft lengths cannot be ordered online.
