Interior & Exterior Carpentry in Shelton, CT
Flores Painting Service LLC handles interior and exterior carpentry in Shelton, CT. Shelton mixes older Valley housing with newer development, and the two need very different carpentry work on the same street sometimes.
Carpentry for Two Kinds of Shelton Housing
Shelton has older Valley homes and a lot of newer construction from the last few decades. The carpentry problems in each are almost opposite.
Older Shelton houses have solid wood that needs matching. Newer ones have thinner material, engineered trim, and joints that opened up because of how they were installed.
A carpentry contractor in Shelton, CT has to handle both. Flores Painting Service LLC prices each house on what it actually is, not on an average square foot number.
Interior Carpentry and Finish Work in Shelton
Interior carpentry in Shelton covers finish carpentry, interior trim work, interior woodwork, and repair or replacement of trim that split, separated, or was installed poorly.
In newer Shelton homes, the most common call is trim that was rushed. Gaps at the miters, nail holes that were never filled properly, and baseboard that never met the floor.
In older Shelton homes it is the opposite. Solid original woodwork that needs matching, patching, and refinishing rather than tearing out and starting over.
Exterior Carpentry and Wood Repair in Shelton
Exterior carpentry in Shelton covers exterior trim, exterior woodwork, and wood repair and replacement on houses that take real inland winters.
Shelton sits above the shoreline, so it gets more snow and harder freeze cycles than the coastal towns. Water in a joint freezes, expands, and widens the gap every year.
The repair has to shed water, not just cover the damage. Exterior carpentry in Shelton, CT that traps moisture behind new material fails on the same schedule as the old one.
Homeowners looking for carpentry services in Shelton, CT are often comparing a repair against a full replacement, and most of the time the honest answer is somewhere in the middle.
