Trim & finish carpentry in Abbotsford

From older homes in Clearbrook to newer builds on Auguston and Eagle Mountain, Abbotsford trim jobs range from replacing damaged base and casing to full trim packages on new renovations.

Abbotsford winters bring the Fraser Valley outflow: cold, dry east winds that find every gap around an exterior door. If your entry or patio door whistles, lets light through or has a sweep that does not seal, that wind is why. We set and seal exterior doors so the weatherstrip and threshold make a continuous seal.

Why trim makes or breaks a room

Trim is the last thing that goes in and the first thing people see. A clean baseboard and casing package makes an average room look finished. Open mitres, gaps along the wall and nail holes everywhere make a new renovation look cheap.

Most of the difference is in the prep and the joinery. We cope inside corners on baseboard and crown instead of mitring them, so the joint stays tight as the house moves through the seasons. We glue and pin outside mitres, scribe to floors and walls that are not flat, and set nails where filler and paint will hide them.

Matching trim to the house

A modern build usually wants simple square or eased profiles. A character home in Fort Langley or a craftsman style house wants deeper casing, a head detail and a taller base. We help you pick a profile that suits the house and stays consistent from room to room, so the trim reads as one package rather than a mix of whatever was on sale.
