Installing Pvc Molding Inside A Building?

PVC trim is a low-maintenance option that can transform any exterior from drab to dramatic. To install it properly, follow these steps:

1. Cut the pieces to the correct size.
2. Locate and mark your studs. Nail molding into a stud (the internal wooden support structure in your walls).
3. Glue the edges.
4. Place the piece.
5. Nail it in place.
6. Do finishing touches.

Installing interior PVC trim requires careful measurements and testing before applying adhesive. Snip off the end of the caulk tube to get your desired size bead and apply a continuous bead to one of the surfaces about.

Store PVC siding, trim, molding, or other PVC products out of the sun and store in a garage or under a lumber tarp. Cool PVC installs truer.

To fasten the trim to the wall, use 2 1/4-inch-long 15-gauge nails. For the interior of a home, nail holes in PVC can be filled with almost anything used with PVC.

Begin the installation at a corner or edge of the area, depending on your specific project requirements. Apply a bead of adhesive or PVC.

Before installing American Pro Décor’s PVC Baseboard mouldings, ensure they are placed at room temperature 24 hours before installation. If installing trim in temperatures higher than 80 degrees F, fit joints tightly. If it’s between 60 and 80 degrees F, make ½-inch to ¾-inch shiplap joints and glue the overlaps.

In summary, PVC trim is a great low-maintenance option that can be installed correctly. Follow these steps to get the most out of this material.
