The details that make a room feel finished
Trim is where a house shows how carefully it was built. Tight miters on window casing, baseboard that sits flat against the floor, and crown that runs straight along a ceiling all make a room feel solid and complete. When trim is missing, gapped or hacked in, even a freshly painted room looks unfinished. Good finish carpentry is often the least expensive way to make a home feel more polished.
We install baseboard, shoe molding, door and window casing, window stools and aprons, crown molding and chair rail, in painted or stain-grade materials. Bay windows like the one in the photo take extra time because every angle is different, and those are exactly the spots where patient measuring and test-fitting pay off. We cut and fit each piece rather than relying on caulk to fill the gaps.
Working with real walls and older homes
Very few walls in Central Texas are perfectly flat or plumb. Houses settle on our clay soils, older homes in Cameron and Caldwell have plaster and shiplap behind the drywall, and floors in manufactured homes and additions are rarely level from one end of the room to the other. We scribe, shim and adjust trim so it looks straight to the eye even when the framing behind it is not.
If you are finishing a new build, a barndominium or a remodel, we can trim out the whole interior once the drywall and flooring are in. If you only need a few rooms updated or damaged pieces replaced, that is welcome work too. We protect your floors, keep the dust down, and clean up each day so you can live in the house while the work gets done.
