Baseboard & Trim Installation: Neartown-Montrose, Harris County
Scribed to real walls — that is the short version of how JM Painting approaches baseboard and trim installation, and it does not change between the Neartown-Montrose area of Houston and anywhere else we work. What does change is the house: humidity swings here move trim, so glued miters stay tight when nailed-only joints open, so the scope gets set on site.

Weather sets the rhythm of this work along the Gulf Coast, and Neartown-Montrose is no exception: humidity stretches dry times, summer storms interrupt exterior schedules, and a crew that plans around both finishes on time.
