Default Chair Rails

We are remodeling our guest bedroom and would like to have Chair Rails installed before we have the room painted.

Do anyone have any recommendations for someone to install Chair Rails. Thanks for your responses.

You might want to install these after the room is painted. If the chair rail is prepainted, then once installed all you will need to do is touch up the nail holes, and possible splice locations, and you have real nice crisp lines between the wall paint and the chair rail paint.
As to the installation, I would offer to help, but fall bowling just started, and I am really booked up.

I agree with VillageTinker. Although I do not have a recommendation on who could help you, painting the walls first prevents a lot of taping the chair railing. Take advantage of the voices of experience. :-)

You’re probably right. I initially mis-read OP’s question and thought they were painting the walls themselves. I am not a self-respecting painter - just a homeowner who has painted many walls, probably unprofessionally - so I’ve had many the occasion to use tape.

Just spoke to Chris at Investment Contract Painters and look like they can do the whole job. Thanks for your replies.
