Measuring Layout

Good layout prevents “surprises” at corners and helps you minimize visible seams.

Measure your runs

1. Measure each wall/run where moulding will be installed.
2. Add the lengths to get total linear feet.
3. Add extra for waste:
   • ~10% for typical installs
   • 15%+ for many corners, returns, complex layouts, or pattern matching

If you’re ordering for a large project, request a quote and include estimated linear feet:

Plan corners and seams

Before cutting, decide where seams will land:

• Try to place seams in less noticeable locations.
• When possible, avoid stacking multiple seams near the same visual focal point.
• For long straight runs, consider using angled/scarf joints (instead of straight butt joints) to help seams disappear after finishing.

Mark reference lines

Use a level/laser and chalk line to mark:

• Run height / top and bottom edges
• Reveals and offsets
• Corner points
• Joint locations

Dry-fit everything

Before applying adhesive:

• Place pieces in position and confirm fit.
• Check corners for tightness and alignment.
• Verify straightness across long runs.
• Label pieces (A, B, C…) so you can install in the same order you dry-fit.

Dry-fitting saves time and prevents rushed fixes while adhesive is curing.
