Trim Replacement in Wheaton, IL

There are many types of trim found in Wheaton homes. From interior baseboards and window trim to exterior door trim, this important feature is both a design and functional element. With that said, not every type of trim can be considered functional. Crown molding and wainscoting are strictly decorative. However, other types of wall trim such as chair rail trim serve an important purpose. Whichever types you currently have in your home, when they become too damaged to repair, you'll need a full trim replacement in Wheaton, IL.

Our Dedicated Approach to Trim Replacement in Wheaton, IL

When choosing Mr. Handyman for your Wheaton Trim Replacement, you can rest assured that it will be completed correctly. Our experienced team has extensive knowledge in all types of trim repair throughout the interior and exterior of your home. This knowledge extends to the repair of many trim materials, including wood, composite, aluminum, and more.

Inside Wheaton homes, wood is the most popular type of trim, but still, there is no shortage of styles to choose from when sorting through product catalogs. From classic and modern to Victorian and rosette, if this is the first time you will be replacing your home's trim, you should pick out your preferred replacement design and order it. Once your trim is at your home and ready for our skilled installation, schedule an appointment with our qualified team. On your service day, we'll arrive at your home and get to work removing the old trim.

If you are not replacing all of your entire baseboards, window casings, or other types of trim, we will only need to remove the affected section. Keep in mind, if it has been close to 10 years since you had your trim replaced, there's a good chance the entirety of the feature will need to be replaced.

Looking for custom trim? Our carpenters can help. Let us know what you're looking for, and we can provide you with a project cost and make it. Regardless of the type of trim you choose and whether it's inside or outside of your home when the replacement is complete, we can also assist with staining or painting wood your preferred color scheme.

The first step in the process is to call our qualified team. Each home is unique, and that's why we make sure to offer a comprehensive selection of trim replacement services to meet your needs. Here's a look at a few of our most common.

Interior Trim Replacement

Interior trim faces some of the same issues that exterior trim does but requires less upkeep. Some of the most common issues it faces are the natural shifting of your home, wear and tear, and old age. Of course, if you want to replace your trim as part of a home improvement project, the simple desire to change its look is good enough.

  • Baseboard trim. Baseboards are the wood panels that run around the bottom perimeter of your rooms. They're usually made from solid wood but may also be made from composite or covered vinyl board. Baseboard trim serves the important purpose of covering the gap between your floors and the wall. It's also a design feature and comes in a wide variety of styles. The most common is rounded or stepped edge trim.
  • Window trim. The trim on the interior of your home surrounding the windows may become cracked due to the natural expansion and contraction of your home, but seeing it may also be a sign of foundation damage. If you see cracks surrounding your entire window, it's always a good idea to call a professional for an inspection so you can deal with additional damage quickly.
  • Door Trim. Similar to the function of baseboards, door trim serves as a transition between the jamb and the wall. It also gives you the chance to add style or personality to your entryways. Some of the most common issues that call for replacement include cracks, excessive wear and tear, and old age.
  • Chair rail. This type of trim will run along the lower third of your wall, measuring close to an inch in height. This raised feature will prevent damage to your walls caused by chairs being pushed back from the table or movement of couches and entertainment centers. In short, it protects your drywall from holes and is one of the most functional types of trim. However, because sections of it are constantly damaged, it can crack and need replacement.
  • Crown molding. A feature that's strictly about design, crown molding runs along the top of your walls. It doesn't get damaged by much and may very well last a lifetime. The most common reason homeowners decide to replace it is because they want to change up the style.

Exterior Trim Replacement

Any type of trim on the exterior of your home will be exposed to the natural elements. This included UV damage, water, and wind. Staying on top of regular trim repair and maintenance can help elongate the life of these exterior features, but eventually, a total trim replacement is inevitable. Some of the most common exterior elements we replace include:

  • Exterior window trim
  • Exterior door trim
  • Corner post trim

Fascia and soffit can be considered a type of trim as well, and need to be properly maintained throughout the year to ensure they protect your home. While we don't consider exterior trim any more important than interior trim, we will say that it serves an important purpose of protecting your glass windows and home in general in addition to being a design element.

Wheaton Trim Repair FAQs

  • Replacing trim isn't just about creating a gorgeous appearance. It's about keeping your home in great condition too. Exterior trim protects the underlayment of your house, which, if it comes into contact with moisture and doesn't dry, could lead to mold. This is just one of the many issues that can occur if the trim isn't in perfect condition. Plus, having beautiful trim in excellent condition can increase curb appeal, raise your property value, and attract potential buyers.
