Elevate your floors with high-quality mouldings

Mouldings are the finishing touch that takes your flooring from good to great. They don’t just add style—they cover gaps, protect edges, and create a seamless transition between different flooring types. Whether you want a sleek, modern look or a classic, timeless feel, the right floor mouldings make all the difference. At National Flooring Outlet, we have the best inventory in the San Gabriel Valley at affordable prices.

If you’re installing new floors or upgrading an existing space, don’t overlook the power of mouldings. They frame your flooring, add character, and even help extend the life of your floors.

Types of mouldings and their benefits

Not all floor mouldings are created equal. Each type serves a different purpose, and choosing the right one depends on your flooring, transitions, and overall design. Here’s a breakdown of the most common types:

• Baseboards: Baseboards are the most visible moulding in any room. They run along the bottom of the wall where it meets the floor, covering gaps and adding a polished look. Whether you prefer a simple, clean style or something more decorative, baseboards complete your space.
• Quarter round and shoe moulding: If you need extra coverage between the baseboard and floor, quarter round or shoe moulding does the trick. These slim, curved pieces provide a smooth transition while adding a subtle design element. They’re also great for hiding imperfections on older floors.
• T-moulding: T-moulding connects two floors of the same height, creating a seamless flow from one room to another. It’s ideal for open floor plans where different flooring materials meet without a noticeable gap.
• Reducers: When transitioning between two floors of different heights, reducers smooth the shift. They prevent tripping hazards and help create a natural flow between spaces like hardwood to tile or laminate to vinyl.
• Stair nosing: Stair nosing adds durability and safety to stair edges. It protects against wear and tear while giving your staircase a refined, finished look. Available in various styles, it can match your flooring for a cohesive design.
• Thresholds: Thresholds (or transition strips) bridge gaps between flooring and doorways. They provide a smooth, polished finish where floors meet, ensuring durability and an elegant appearance.
• End caps: End caps (or square nose mouldings) create a clean edge where the flooring ends, like against a fireplace, sliding door, or entryway. They prevent exposed edges from looking unfinished and offer added protection.
