"The carpenter that did the job (Adam) was amazing. He had to expand the space for one window, narrow the space for another, and repair much cedar siding that had rotted away due to water damage. He also reshaped my patio door so it would close and lock more easily. He is a very talented carpenter and I have no qualms about highly recommending him."

They did it in a timely and very neat manner. I would highly recommend them. In fact I am a realtor and I pass his name on to all of my clients - both when they buy a new home or if they are getting ready to sell a home. Cesar is very responsive and I recommend him without qualms!"

Trim is the catch-all term for the boards that finish off transitions around doors, windows, floors, and ceilings. Molding is a subset of trim—often more ornate—that adds visual flair where two surfaces meet. In other words, every molding is trim, but plenty of trim (like simple baseboards or door casings) isn’t considered molding because it focuses on function over decoration.
Painting trim before installation keeps drips off your walls and floors, but you’ll still need to fill nail holes and touch up later. Painting after installation eliminates most of that touch-up work, yet it requires careful taping to protect surrounding surfaces. Both options work; choose the one that best fits your schedule and comfort level with prep tasks.
Glue speeds up installation and skips the hassle of filling nail holes, but removal later can tear up drywall, and warped boards are harder to fix. Nails take a bit longer, yet they hold trim securely and make future repairs simpler. Most pros stick with nails for a durable, professional-looking finish.
