3D Stucco provides professional exterior moulding and architectural detail installation for residential and commercial properties in Barrie, Orillia, Midland and surrounding areas in Ontario.

Exterior moulding can add depth, character and architectural detail to a building facade. Window surrounds, decorative bands, cornices and other exterior features can be designed to complement stucco, EIFS, stone and painted exterior finishes.

Whether you are renovating an existing property or adding decorative details to new construction, our team can help create a coordinated exterior appearance.

What Is Exterior Moulding?

Exterior moulding refers to decorative architectural elements installed around windows, doors, rooflines, corners and other areas of a building facade.

These elements are primarily used to enhance the appearance of the exterior and create more definition around architectural features. Depending on the project and wall system, exterior moulding may be incorporated into stucco or EIFS finishes.

Exterior moulding can be used to create both traditional and contemporary designs, depending on the profile, size and finish selected.

Exterior Moulding for Stucco Homes

Exterior moulding works especially well with stucco finishes because the decorative elements can be integrated into the overall facade design.

Window and door surrounds can make openings appear more defined, while bands and cornices can break up large wall surfaces and create architectural character.

Colour and texture can also be coordinated with the main stucco finish to create either a subtle appearance or a contrasting design.

Exterior Moulding and EIFS

Architectural moulding can also be incorporated into EIFS exterior systems. Lightweight decorative elements can be used around windows, entrances and other areas to create detailed exterior designs.

Proper preparation, attachment and finishing are important so that the moulding integrates cleanly with the surrounding wall system.

Popular Exterior Moulding Features

Window Surrounds

Window moulding can create a more finished appearance and visually define windows on both traditional and modern properties. Different profiles can be selected depending on the architectural style of the building.

Door and Entrance Details

Decorative moulding around entrances can help emphasize the main doorway and coordinate it with other architectural features on the facade.

Exterior Bands

Horizontal or vertical bands can be used to divide large wall surfaces, highlight different sections of the building and create additional visual interest.

Cornices and Architectural Trim

Cornices and trim elements can provide definition near rooflines and other transitions. The scale and style of these features should be selected to suit the proportions of the building.

Choosing an Exterior Moulding Design

Exterior moulding should complement the overall architecture rather than appear separate from the rest of the building. Important factors to consider include:

• Architectural style of the property
• Size and proportions of windows and doors
• Existing stucco or EIFS texture
• Exterior colour scheme
• Stone, brick and other facade materials
• Roofline and architectural proportions

A coordinated design can help create a cleaner and more balanced exterior appearance.

Exterior Moulding Repair and Restoration

Existing exterior moulding can become cracked, chipped or damaged because of impact, weather exposure or deterioration of the surrounding finish.

Depending on the condition of the moulding, damaged areas may be repaired or individual elements may need to be replaced. The surrounding stucco or EIFS should also be inspected to determine whether additional repairs are required.

If the surrounding exterior has cracks or damaged finishes, visit our Stucco Repair Barrie page.

Finishing and Painting Exterior Moulding

Exterior moulding can be finished to coordinate with the rest of the building. Some property owners prefer moulding in the same colour as the main facade, while others use a contrasting colour to emphasize architectural details.

The appropriate coating should be compatible with the moulding material and surrounding exterior system. Proper surface preparation is also important before painting.
