PVC molding has produced a radical change in construction. It is a consistent, workable material that is simply impervious to weather. It cuts, routs, mills, and fastens with conventional woodworking tools. Because PVC moldings are cost-effective and indistinguishable from wood, they are often used for water table boards, drip edges, and kick-boards. PVC molding and millwork paint beautifully and last longer than when painted on wood.
In interior applications, PVC moldings are used throughout the home or building:
- Baseboard PVC molding—at the junction of an interior wall and floor to protect the wall from impacts
- Quarter-round—at the bottom of the baseboard between the flooring and the baseboard
- PVC Bed molding (both beveled and plain)—where wall and ceiling come together
- Casing— around the top and both sides of a door or window opening
PVC molding are also used in exterior applications:
- Drip cap,—over a door or window to keep water from flowing under the cladding
- Shingle mould—at the top of the last row of siding and the soffit
- Board and batten—across a joint where two parallel panels or boards meet
- Brickmould—at the transition between brick and siding
- Corner—covers the edge of the wall at an outside corner or covers a joint on an inside corner
