Round moulding is used to create a smooth transition between floors, walls, or countertops. It is similar in appearance to shoe moulding but has a more prominent curve. Although both round and shoe mouldings serve a similar purpose, round mouldings he a bolder appearance due to the curve and radius.
Benefits of Round MouldingThere are two types of round moulding: full-round moulding and half-round moulding. Full round moulding and trim make for phenomenal wood transitions that provide a clean design aesthetic.
It’s also more affordable and durable than other flooring transitions. Full-round moulding is very easy to install as well, making it a fantastic option for those seeking a DIY-friendly moulding option.
Half-round and quarter-round mouldings are better for finishing edges and trim. Many homeowners use half-round moulding to separate wallpaper or wall colors for a starker contrast between the two. It’s an excellent way to create a clean line between different design elements and break up a space. Quarter-round moulding is best for finishing baseboards.
Tips for Using and Installing Round MouldingOne of the best tips for incorporating this moulding is to buy slightly more than you think you need. This will ensure you don’t run out during your installation. For installation, you can use adhesive to apply round moulding as a wood transition.
You can use round moulding to hide the gaps between pieces of wood, especially in areas where your baseboard meets the floor. This added functionality, along with the aesthetic quality, makes round moulding a fantastic finishing element to your project.
