Finish carpentry is not only trim work but there’s much more. Finish carpentry encompasses all work done inside a house after framing, sheathing, wiring, plumbing, insulation, and drywall have been installed. This includes door and window trim, fitting interior doors, and crown molding. This line of work requires oriented value and skill.
We offer services in Finish carpentry: crown, baseboard, window/door trim, Closet, and shelving.
Trim Work: It isn’t just decorative wood surrounding doors and windows, but also crown molding and wall paneling. Skillfully choosing and installing trim is only the beginning of finished carpentry success. In finishing carpentry it is important to use a chop saw router, and table saw skillfully. Doing good trim work also means cutting and fitting perfectly every time, and achieving this takes experience and skill. Wood trim work also involves sanding and finishing to ensure a fully flush and polished project.
Door Fitting: Even if your home will have factory-built doors, fitting them correctly so they hang and swing reliably and latch easily takes skill. Finish carpenters use extremely sharp chisels and gouges to carve shallow pockets for hinges on both doors and door jambs, so doors close properly. Lining up the latch with the strike plate is also crucial, and harder than it looks. Many times even a tiny error here can lead to a door that sticks or doesn’t latch at all.
Perfect miters are only part of finish carpentry. Finish carpenters must develop an eye for proportion and detail. They must learn to visualize the steps that lead to the finished product. The finish work needs to wrap the existing body of the home, in perfection and precision.
Working with Dans Precision Woodworking will ensure your project is done accurately and with oriented results.
