Finish Carpentry & Trim

Finish carpentry and trim work

Finish carpentry is where I started, and it's still the work I enjoy most. Tight miters, scribed baseboard on uneven floors, casing that sits flat on an out-of-square opening: the details people notice once they're wrong.

I do trim repairs and small runs: a room of baseboard, new casing on a few doors, a closet shelf system, replacing damaged trim after a leak or a move.

Common jobs

  • Baseboard and shoe moulding, a room or two
  • Door and window casing
  • Repairing or replacing damaged trim
  • Scribing trim to log and uneven walls
  • Closet shelving and rod systems
  • Small built-in shelves and benches
  • Stair trim and nosing repairs
  • Caulk, fill and paint-ready prep

Scope

Trim and small carpentry projects under $1,000 in labor and materials. Larger finish packages or remodel work are done with a licensed partner or referred out.

Finish Carpentry & Trim: questions

Can you match my existing trim?

Usually. Many common profiles are still stocked locally. For older or custom profiles I'll send photos of the closest options before buying anything.

Do you paint the trim?

I fill nail holes, caulk and leave trim paint-ready. I can do touch-up paint on small runs. For whole-room painting I can refer a painter.

Can you work with knotty pine and log homes?

Yes. A lot of North Tahoe trim is knotty pine or fir with a clear finish, and scribing to log walls is normal work up here.
