Frequently asked questions
What is foam crown moulding?
Foam crown moulding has a lightweight foam core instead of solid wood or plaster. NuCrown crown mouldings have an EPS (expanded polystyrene) core with a plaster-based coating, so they are easy to carry, cut and paint.
What is LED cove lighting?
LED cove lighting is indirect lighting: an LED strip is hidden behind a light cove moulding so the light washes across the ceiling and upper wall. NuCrown light cove mouldings LC-01 to LC-08 give the strip a neat, shaped place to sit.
What does NuCrown Mouldings sell?
NuCrown makes and sells crown mouldings in 8 profiles (Cove, Deco, Georgian, Milan, One Step Cove, Symmetrical, Tuscany and Two Step Cove) and LED light-cove mouldings LC-01 to LC-08. For coffered and waffle ceiling beams, see cofferedceiling.ca (https://cofferedceiling.ca/).
What are the mouldings made of?
They have an EPS (expanded polystyrene) core with a plaster-based coating. They are lightweight, sandable and ready to paint, and can be installed by one person with basic tools.
What sizes and pack sizes are available?
Crown mouldings come in 4", 5", 6", 7" and 8" sizes (4" in Georgian, Symmetrical, One Step Cove and Two Step Cove; 5" to 8" in all eight profiles). Pieces are 4 feet long and sold in packs. Crown moulding packs range from $199 to $844 CAD depending on size and quantity. Light-cove packs start at $144.
Can I order a sample before buying?
Yes. Crown moulding sample boxes are $2.99 each, one per size and profile. Light-cove samples are $2.99. The full cost of your sample and its shipping is credited back on an order over $349 within 30 days; samples are non-refundable.
Can I install the mouldings myself?
Yes. The installation guide covers measuring, cutting, bonding with drywall compound or Alex Flex Moulding and Trim Sealant, sealing the joints, sanding and painting: https://www.nucrownmouldings.com/guides/installation/. For supply and installation in the Greater Toronto Area, contact Everest Mouldings (https://everestmouldings.com/).
Do the light-cove mouldings include LED lights?
No. LC-01 to LC-08 are mouldings designed to conceal an LED strip; the strip and power supply are chosen separately. LC-01 and LC-07 are designed for bulkhead corners. LightCoves.ca (https://lightcoves.ca/) has profile guides and GTA installation offers.
