Finish Carpentry in Naugatuck, CT
Finish carpentry is the trim your eye lands on when you walk into a room: the baseboard along the floor, the crown where the wall meets the ceiling, the casing around every door and window. When it is done well nobody notices it. When it is done badly, open miters and gaps along the wall are all you can see.
What's included
Finish Carpentry in Naugatuck, done the way we would want it in our own house.
It is the work we started with and the work we are pickiest about. Walls in Connecticut houses are rarely straight and floors are rarely level, so every piece gets coped, scribed or shimmed to fit the room it is going into, not the room it should have been.
-
Baseboards and shoe molding
New or replacement, coped at inside corners so the joints stay closed as the house moves.
-
Crown molding
Measured and cut for ceilings that are not level, with the joints glued and pinned.
-
Door and window casing
Reveals kept even all the way around, including on old frames that are out of square.
-
Wainscoting and accent walls
Board and batten, raised panel look, picture frame molding and shiplap.
-
Interior doors
Prehung doors set plumb, gaps matched, hardware installed.
-
Ready for paint
Nail holes filled, seams caulked and the room left clean at the end of every day.
Good to know. Painting is not part of the carpentry price. On jobs that need it, we can bring in a painter we work with and schedule it right after the trim.
Why us
Why homeowners call us for finish carpentry.
If a door we hung ends up crooked, we come back and fix it.
- 01
Cut to your room, not to a drawing
We measure every wall on site and scribe to what is actually there. That is where tight joints come from.
- 02
The small jobs count too
One room of baseboard or a single door casing is a real job for us, not something we squeeze in.
- 03
We come back if it moves
If a joint opens or a door we hung starts to stick, call us and we fix it.

Questions
Finish Carpentry questions we hear in the Naugatuck Valley.
Can you match the trim I already have?
Usually, yes. Most common baseboard and casing profiles are still made. If yours is an older profile nobody carries, we show you the closest options at the estimate before anything is cut.
Do you paint the trim after installing it?
We leave it filled, caulked and ready for paint. If you want it painted, we can schedule a painter we work with, or you can do it yourself.
Is it worth replacing baseboard when I put in a new floor?
Almost always. Old baseboard rarely comes off clean, and new flooring often sits at a different height. New baseboard is what makes the floor look finished.
How long does a room of trim take?
A normal bedroom of baseboard and door casing is usually a day. Crown and wainscoting take longer. You get the time in writing with the estimate.
Do you do finish carpentry outside Naugatuck?
Yes. We work within about 40 miles of Naugatuck, including Waterbury, Cheshire, Southbury, Middlebury, Seymour and Southington.
