A person needs to know the ceiling height when making moulding recommendations because different types of moulding are used depending on the application. For shorter walls, thinner moulding is typically used to limit its impact.

What is the standard ceiling height of a residential home bedroom?

In the US, the standard length for studs (the vertical boards that sustain a wall) is 92 5/8". In making a wall, the studs are fastened to 2 x 4 sill plates at the bottom, and a doubled top plate at the top. The top and bottom plates, all 2 x 4's (in most cases), are nominally 1.5" in thickness. That makes the total thickness of the plates 4 1/2 inches. The sill plate is attached to the floor, and the ceiling joists rest on the uppermost top plate. So, from floor to ceiling, in a framed structure, the distance is 92 5/8" plus 4 1/2 inches, giving a total of 97 1/8 inches. 96 inches is 8 feet, which is considered the standard distance from floor to ceiling. But, in framing, consideration is given to additional ceiling and flooring materials which will be used. Most bedrooms will have carpet, and gypsum board covers the ceiling. The gypsum board (sheetrock) is 1/2 inch thick, and carpet is usually 3/4 thick. Adding these together, you have 1-1/4 inches that will be subtracted from the original framing height, to give the finished height of a typical modern ceiling. Since the framing height is 8 feet and 1-1/8 inches, the typical height of a conventional residential home's ceiling will be 1/8" shy of eight feet, or seven feet, eleven and seven-eighths inches.


How much do you charge per LF for framing?

If you mean linear foot, the price is usually included in the moulding cost. If you are making a frame from someone else's moulding and you have to cut it and join it, I would charge just as much as a scratch order, since if anything goes wrong, you will have to reorder the moulding. This works out to 10 dollars per linear foot at cheapest to upwards of 50 dollars or more, depending on the moulding. If the frame is very small, you might consider a minimum charge. This of course does not include other materials, glass, mounting, hangers, and mats.
