Interior & Exterior Carpentry in Bristol, CT
Flores Painting Service LLC handles interior and exterior carpentry in Bristol, CT. Bristol has a lot of early twentieth century housing with original woodwork, and it takes harder winters than the shoreline towns do.
Carpentry for Bristol's Older Housing
Bristol housing leans older, with a lot of homes built in the first half of the twentieth century. That means real wood trim, solid doors, and profiles nobody manufactures now.
Carpentry in Bristol, CT is mostly about keeping that material. The original woodwork in these houses is better than what would replace it, and it is usually still sound.
Flores Painting Service LLC repairs and matches first. Full replacement gets quoted when the wood is actually gone, and in Bristol that is less common than people assume.
Interior Carpentry and Finish Work in Bristol
Interior carpentry in Bristol covers finish carpentry, interior trim work, interior woodwork, and restoration of trim, casing, and baseboard that has been painted over many times.
Layers of paint hide the profile in a lot of Bristol homes. Under the buildup there is usually a detail worth bringing back rather than covering with something flat and new.
Walls in older Bristol houses settled long ago. Trim gets cut to the real angle of the wall, because a perfect forty five leaves a gap you cannot fill cleanly.
Exterior Carpentry and Wood Repair in Bristol
Exterior carpentry in Bristol covers exterior trim, exterior woodwork, and wood repair and replacement on houses that take full inland Connecticut winters.
Bristol is well north of the shoreline, so snow load and freeze cycles do the damage instead of salt. Water gets into a joint, freezes, and opens it a little wider each year.
