Problems solved by technology
Typical drywall installations generate significant amounts of dust and debris when sealing the joints between adjoining sections of drywall.
However, the process of finishing drywall seams represents a substantial portion of the labor and materials associated with typical drywall installation and repairs.
Moreover, the released gypsum particulates from the sanding present a health hazard to the workers.
Once installed, none provide accessibility to the area beneath the molding without the subsequent removal of the joint compounds and sealers.
Moreover, the limited systems available do not eliminate the need to tape and finish at least a portion of the drywall.

Embodiment Construction
[0033]The following detailed description is of the best currently contemplated modes of carrying out exemplary embodiments of the invention. The description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention, since the scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims.
[0034]Broadly, an embodiment of the present invention provides a system for finishing the walls of a room without the need for drywall joint compound. The components of the system generally include a bracket and a molding cover. The bracket is applied along a seam between one or more adjacent wall, ceiling, and floor members. The molding cover is configured for a snap fit connection to the bracket member to provide a desired architectural finish to the seams within the room. The moldings and brackets are preferably formed by an extrusion of any suitable material.
[0035]As best seen in reference to FIG. 1, a system and method fini...

A fully integrated system of accessible architectural molding which eliminates the need to tape and finish drywall. The system of components relies on a mechanical friction fit assembly that allow for easy installation and removal for future renovations or access to the chase areas of a wall. A molding assembly includes a V-shaped bracket dimensioned to be received in the tapered edge surfaces of adjacent wall boards and a molding secured to the bracket in a snap-fit engagement to conceal the tapered edge surfaces.
Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15 / 059,935 filed Mar. 3, 2016 the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference. This application also claims the benefit of priority of U.S. provisional application No. 62 / 127,615, filed Mar. 3, 2015 the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to architectural molding, and more particularly, to architectural moldings placed between adjoining sections of drywall.[0003]Typical drywall installations generate significant amounts of dust and debris when sealing the joints between adjoining sections of drywall. A gypsum joint compound, or “mud”, is typically applied to the gaps between adjoining drywall sections. Many times, a tape is applied to help span the gap and provide a surface for the mud compound.[0004]Once the joint compound has dried, is then sanded to provide a seamless wall su...
