East Houston Baseboard & Trim Installation

the East Houston area of Houston sits inside Harris County, and the housing stock changes street to street. We set the baseboard and trim installation scope after looking at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Older floors in this area are rarely flat, and scribing is what hides that.

What the work involves

Our Baseboard & Trim Installation scope in East Houston

Runs measured and stock scribed to uneven walls and floors
Miters glued and pinned, not just nailed
Returns and outside corners built rather than caulked
Nail holes filled, joints caulked, then painted

Homes in East Houston share the conditions of the surrounding Harris County communities: the same soils, the same weather load, the same building eras. Older floors in this area are rarely flat, and scribing is what hides that.

The process is deliberately boring. Estimate first, in person and free. Scope second, in writing. Then the baseboard and trim installation itself, and finally a walk of the finished work with you at your East Houston home before the job is called done.
