How to Achieve That Old World Look in Your Home
One of the specialties of a trim carpenter is, not surprising, installing trim work. This will include the likes of baseboards, door trims, molding, and other finishing accents in a home. The process of installing this can, however, be tedious, and a trim carpenter will need a keen eye for detail, and the ability to take precise measurements, and use various tools to create clean cuts and attractive trim carpentry. In these cases, a trim carpenter will often work onsite with tools that include nail guns, chop saws, miter saws, hammers, and sanding machines like palm sanders.
In many cases, a trim carpenter is often asked to install cabinets and window casings. The cabinets may or may not be built by the carpenter, however, they are responsible for the proper installation and, when necessary, adaptation in a space. Window casings are structures that make sure windows fit snugly and properly into a space; this job is extremely important not just for aesthetic reasons, but for efficiency. Heat will often be lost through the window casings when they are not built properly, which results in increased heating costs in the winter months. Conversely, cool air can also be lost through casings, which means cooling costs in the summer are higher.
Sometimes a trim carpenter works in a woodworking shop and will create attractive accents for a home. The likes of railings, mantelpieces, or even furniture can be fabricated for a space without a carpenter needing to visit the property. As they will work using blueprints or plans, meaning this type of carpenter needs to possess strong math skills and an ability to read complex plans or schematics. Trim carpenters will also use complex machinery that includes computer numeric control (CNC) machines, which use computer software.
