Story from Mans Lumber Millwork: From shiplap to chair rail, explore custom molding options for your home

Custom molding, historically fluctuating in popularity, is now more accessible and affordable than ever for homeowners and builders. Once a mark of a skilled carpenter's personal touch, molding declined during the World Wars as homes became simpler and more functional. However, a resurgence began in the 1990s with crown molding and chair rails, evolving into more intricate designs. The material landscape has also expanded beyond solid wood to include medium-density fiberboard (MDF), which is lighter, more affordable, and a sustainable option, removing previous limitations on size and shape. Custom molding offers diverse applications for enhancing home aesthetics and increasing property value. It can be utilized to add detail and depth to kitchen cabinets, closet doors, and light switches, or to revitalize staircases and mantels with elements like corbels and columns. Walls and ceilings can be transformed with shiplap, paneling, and wainscoting, and accent walls can personalize any room. Beyond interior enhancements, molding allows for distinguishing a home's exterior and recreating historical architectural styles at a reduced cost. Mans Lumber and Millwork plays a crucial role in providing these custom solutions. The company assists with projects ranging from simple DIY installations, such as a shiplap wall, to extensive historic renovations.
