        "text": "Homeowners should measure the cabinet runs, know their ceiling height, and decide whether they want stained wood to match cabinet fronts or painted trim to match ceiling surfaces. Before meeting your contractor, inspect whether your upper cabinets have pre-existing trim mounting cleats or face-frame lips. Gathering photos of preferred trim styles—such as simple shaker profiles versus ornate traditional cove profiles—helps clarify the scope. It is also beneficial to verify if under-cabinet lighting is planned, as this determines whether light rail molding needs to be factored into the trim package.",
