Finish Carpentry Work We Do
Finish carpentry is the detail layer that makes a house feel complete and intentional. We handle every element that gets a painted or stained surface treatment.
Crown Molding and Casing
Crown molding at ceiling lines, door and window casings, and picture rail. Cuts are mitered precisely at corners with no visible gaps.
Baseboards and Chair Rail
New baseboards to replace builder-grade profiles, or matching existing profiles to extend into remodeled rooms.
Built-In Shelving and Cabinetry
Mudroom cubbies, living room built-ins, closet systems, and bookcase walls. Designed and built to the specific space.
Interior Doors and Frames
Pre-hung door installation, door frame replacements, and custom door surround trim packages.
Our Process
Consultation and Measurements
We visit the space, take precise measurements, and review your design goals and material preferences before quoting.
Material Selection
We help you choose between paint-grade and stain-grade materials, wood species, profile styles, and finish options based on your budget and existing interior.
Custom Fabrication or Sourcing
When stock trim does not match your existing profile, we source or have pieces custom-milled to fit.
Installation and Fitting
Trim is cut, fitted, and secured with tight joints and correct nailing patterns. Built-ins are assembled and anchored to wall structure.
Caulking, Sanding, and Priming
Seams are caulked, surfaces sanded smooth, and all paintable trim primed so the painter gets a perfect base.
Final Inspection
We review joints, gaps, and alignment with you before the job closes. Finish carpentry is detail work and we do not leave until the details are right.
Why Homeowners Choose True Pro
Tight Joints, No Gaps
Finish carpentry is only as good as its joints and cuts. We take the time to fit properly rather than caulking over bad fits.
Profile Matching
Older Staten Island homes have trim profiles that no big-box store carries. We source or custom-mill matching profiles to keep your home consistent through renovations.
Ready for the Painter
All carpentry is caulked, nailed, sanded, and primed before we leave. Your painter gets a surface that is ready for a clean finish coat.
What Affects the Cost of Finish Carpentry
Finish carpentry cost depends on the complexity of the project, the material grade chosen, and how much custom work is required.
Linear Footage and Scale
Crown molding and baseboards are priced by linear foot. Built-ins and custom cabinetry are priced by scope and design complexity.
Material Grade
Paint-grade lumber (MDF or finger-joint) costs less than stain-grade solid wood. We recommend the right material for your intended finish.
Custom vs. Stock
Matching an existing profile or building a custom built-in takes more time than installing standard off-the-shelf trim.
Finishing Scope
Caulking, priming, and first coat of paint are included. Full paint to final sheen is quoted as part of the combined project.
Every estimate is free, written, and specific to your project.
Serving Staten Island and the surrounding region
Many Staten Island homes built from the 1940s through the 1980s have original trim and millwork worth preserving or matching. Colonial, Cape Cod, and ranch-style homes in neighborhoods like Dongan Hills, Todt Hill, and Westerleigh often have specific trim profiles that define the home's character. We regularly source custom-milled profiles to match original trim in remodeled rooms so the new work blends cleanly with what was already there.

Shira G.
Castleton Corners
“Had them repaint the living room and master bedroom. Two coats, clean edges, no drips. The white on the trim is sharper than anything I could have done myself.”
Colleen V.
Bay Terrace
“I've hired painters twice before and always had issues with thin coverage or missed spots. This team did two coats everywhere without being asked, and it shows.”
Modesto Q.
Tottenville
“I was nervous about the color choices but they brought samples, painted test patches, and let me see them in different lighting before committing. The end result is exactly what I pictured.”
