CONTRACTOR Q & A
Q: What is the best way to make the corners fit tight when I am putting up crown moulding? Dennis from Sandusky
A: If you want the corners to fit perfect so that there is no gaps, you need to use a technique called couping. It is were the trim is cut back at an angle following the curve and design of the trim itself.
Q: I am getting ready to tile my bathroom floor and wanted to know if I need to use concrete board or if I can just tile over the plywood? Tom from Huron
A: Yes, you will want to use concrete board on top of the plywood. This will ensure a good bond with the tile and a level floor.
