Trim is the finished woodwork that frames a home, including baseboards, crown molding, door frames, and window casings. It’s what gives a room its finished look, and crisp lines and smooth coats on trim are where painting quality shows most.
Trim usually takes a harder, higher-sheen finish than walls because hands and furniture hit it daily. Tight corners and detailed profiles also reward slow brushwork, which is why trim often gets its own day on the painting schedule.
