How We Approach Trim

How Trim & Millwork Works

Trim work rewards patience — here's our process:

1

Estimate & Scope

We look at the linear footage and condition of the trim and provide a free written estimate.

2

Install or Clean & Sand

New trim is measured and installed, or existing trim is wiped down and lightly sanded so paint adheres evenly.

3

Caulk the Joints

Gaps between trim and wall or trim and trim are caulked for a clean, continuous line.

4

Mask Adjacent Surfaces

Walls and floors next to the trim are taped off to keep lines crisp.

5

Paint in Coats

Trim is painted in thin, even coats — usually semi-gloss or satin — for a durable, wipeable finish.

6

Final Line Check

We inspect every run of trim in good light and touch up any spot that needs it.

Finishes & Prep Approach

Trim gets more contact and wear than wall surfaces, so we typically recommend semi-gloss or satin — finishes that clean easily and hold a sharp edge against wall paint.

Caulking before painting matters more on trim than almost anywhere else in a house — it's what actually creates that crisp line between trim and wall, not just careful cutting-in.

On exterior trim (fascia, soffit, porch details) we prep the same way as exterior siding — scraping, spot-priming bare wood, and caulking — since trim is often the first place paint fails outdoors.

What Affects Cost & Timeline

Every project is different, so we quote after a walkthrough rather than guessing over the phone. Here's what generally moves the price and schedule:

Total linear footage of trim being installed or painted

Number of doors and windows to cut in around

Condition of existing trim (peeling, gaps, or damaged sections add prep time)

Interior vs. exterior trim (exterior needs weather-appropriate prep)

Whether trim work is bundled with a full room or exterior repaint

Alberto and crew are very detail oriented, professional, and went beyond my expectations! Have recommended AMV group to my close colleagues and I hear nothing but great feedback!

My husband and I have been looking for someone to replace our sidelights at the front door for over a year now. Had several estimates last year but for some reason the ones that came and gave us bids were not the right ones, not until we spoke to the owner Alberto at this company. They were doing work next door so my husband spoke to the homeowner about their work and they were thrilled with them. They came and looked at what we wanted done and gave us a bid and it was a price that we could live with so they got the job. They were fantastic and then we got them to paint the dining room too when they finished the front door work. Nelson was the painter and I can not say enough about him as well. Very good work, excellent. They arrived on time, they were very neat and cleaned up the area quite well, I guess most of all they were very professional and kind, great to have them working on my house. I would recommend them in a heartbeat.

We had a great experience working with AMV Construction Group on our bathroom renovation. They helped transform the space and the quality of the work really shows, especially the tile and finishing details. The team was reliable, easy to work with, and kept us updated throughout the process. We would absolutely work with them again.

AMV Construction Group handled several renovations throughout our home, and we couldn't be happier with the results. They were able to take our ideas and turn them into a space that feels completely updated and much more functional. Communication was great, the workmanship was solid, and the finished project came out exactly how we hoped.

We hired AMV Construction Group for an addition to our home and had an excellent experience from start to finish. They were knowledgeable, professional, and responsive whenever we had questions. The new space blends in beautifully with the rest of the house and gives us the extra room we needed. Highly recommend their team.
