Easy to follow step-by-step instructions, accompanied by more than 165 two-color illustrations, guide the homeowner through each project, from start to finish. This practical volume begins with a thorough examination of the types of trim and molding, the many profile options available, and unique customizing designs.

In Quick Guide: Trim & Molding, the homeowner is shown how to measure, cut, and easily install window and door casing, baseboards, crown and chair rail molding, wainscoting, decorative molding and more. The step-by-step instructions and illustrations also show the do-it-yourselfer how to put the finishing touches on a quality job by applying paint or stain.
