Plaster Moldings Direct Responds To This Old House Article

Share this news:

Plaster Moldings Direct offers a wide range of architectural design and ornamentation products for DIY fans. The plaster moldings are affordable, attractive and easy to install.

A Plaster Moldings Direct spokesperson responded recently to an article from “This Old House” magazine. The topic was comparing various types of architectural upgrades, including plaster and wood. The Plaster Moldings Direct comments pointed out that the folks at “This Old House” felt wood upgrades for crown molding are preferable to plaster. The DIY magazine article stated that plaster is more expensive and is more difficult to install than wood.

Some of the reasons for “This Old House’s” caution against plaster crown moldings are due to the weight of traditional plaster moldings which makes it nearly impossible to install by a non-professional. Custom plaster is expensive and is made to order. The product can be easily cracked.

The homeowners who want to have the look of plaster moldings without the negative aspects should review the options at the Atlanta firm Plaster Moldings Direct to add the architectural elements to bare walls. Using plaster, rather than flexible polymers offers the option of elaborate profiles, more complicated than many of those which are milled from wood. The material won't shrink or warp.

According to a spokesperson for Plaster Moldings Direct, their product is off the shelf, affordable and can be purchased with a click-to-buy. The moldings are relatively simple to install for a competent do-it-yourself type of person. They also give a better finish less likely to gap and warp with temperature and humidity swings.

The plaster products include plaster crown moldings, cornice, chair rails, coves, casing, friezes, medallions, rosettes, corbels, dentil blocks and brackets. The ornamentation in plaster pieces is inspired and manufactured in Europe. The wide variety of designs makes it simple for homeowners to find a design which will add aesthetically appealing moldings and other ornamentation to plaster walls. The pieces are suitable for adding interest and visual appeal to otherwise plain walls and ceilings.
