You notice it the moment you walk into a room: the baseboards that gape at the corners, the crown molding that never quite meets, the wainscoting that looks like an afterthought. Trim is the frame around your whole home — when it's sloppy, nothing looks finished, and when it's done right, everything looks more valuable. We install trim and molding with the care it needs, so your rooms close the deal on their own.

Why Choose Coral Gables Carpenters
Trim work is detail work, and detail work is all we do for it. We cope interior corners (the right way — a straight miter across a corner will open up as your house settles), cut tight joints, and take the time to fit molding to walls that are rarely perfectly plumb. Your baseboards and moldings will meet at clean, crisp lines, and stay that way.
What Sets Great Trim Apart
Cheap trim work is a collection of shortcuts you can spot from across the room: mitered inside corners, gaps filled with caulk, casings that don't line up with the jamb, molding nailed tight to walls that bow. Great trim work starts with good material and accurate cuts, then takes patience on the install. We select straight stock, let it acclimate to your home's humidity, cut precise miters and coped joints, and set every nail so it's ready for a clean finish.
Wainscoting, Paneling, and Built-In Details
Wainscoting and paneling add warmth and architectural character — especially fitting in Coral Gables homes with their Mediterranean and traditional styles. We install beadboard, board-and-batten, raised panels, and picture-frame molding that transform plain walls into rooms with depth. We can also build custom niches, shelving displays, and corbels that turn the same wall space into an intentional design moment.
Matching the Age and Style of Your Home
Your home already has a story, and the trim should be written in the same hand. Whether you're restoring period-correct details in a historic property near the Plaza or adding clean, modern profiles to a newer build, we match the scale and style of the molding to your architecture. We carry a wide range of profiles and can source or run custom shapes so the new trim echoes the old.
Repairs and Replacement
Water damage, pets, settling, and half-done renovations leave trim looking rough. We repair or replace damaged baseboards, casing, and molding — matching existing profiles wherever possible, or refreshing an entire room to a consistent new style. If you're tired of the gaps and the caulk lines, we can make them disappear.
