Trim Type Determines the Detail
Baseboards meet flooring, casing frames openings and crown molding follows ceiling lines. Each type has different cuts and joint visibility. The scope should identify which trim families are being changed rather than describe the job simply as “molding.”
For baseboard-only work, see Baseboard Installation & Repair.
Existing Trim Can Be Repaired or Replaced Selectively
Loose corners, split sections or removed pieces can often be addressed without replacing every trim run. Matching profile and paint buildup are the main visual challenges in a partial repair.
Wall and Floor Changes Can Affect Fit
New flooring can leave baseboard gaps, while drywall repair can change how casing meets the wall. Carpentry should follow the updated surfaces and transitions.
Finish Preparation Comes Last
Fastener holes, suitable joints and minor gaps are prepared after installation. Painting then creates the final visual continuity across old and new trim.
