Hi , thanks for the add.

I think it looks better to continue the modling al along the room, to leave off one wall just because its a different material is not a good enough excuse.

They will drill inserts and screw the molding to them into the brick. I think it will give a nice termination to the brick, better than just running it up to the sheetrock and having a paint line across it.

Anyway its just my opinion, I would rather have a modling to hide the gaps where a brick wall touches a gyp board wall.
