Hello

I live in a house where the walls are not completely straight, which means that when I try to install crown molding in the ceiling, there are gaps between the wall and the molding. (I don't mean in the corners, but on the straight stretches of the room)

Does anyone have any tips on how to solve this :)
 
  • Uneven wall and ceiling joint with gaps; plywood and plaster visible.
  • A wall with gaps between coving and the ceiling, showing uneven alignment issues in a home renovation project.
If it’s wood behind, then you can attach it at one end and then staple/nail it to fasten it. If there is significant curvature on the wall, you can notch a little on the back side, so it bends more easily. If it’s concrete/stone, then glue it with pressure somehow, but unfortunately, I don't have a good tip on how to do that.
 
I will test it otherwise I'll switch to another solution.
Thanks for the help.
 
Then you can fill the gaps with painter's caulk and paint over. Or live with the house not being straight :)
