Victorian Kitchen & Bath Remodel Project
Custom Trim, Windows, and Pocket Door VideoNew custom Pella windows give a view onto the yard from the dining room. The windows are trimmed out in custom millwork that was created from a profile of the original trim in the house. The crown molding in the room complements the period architecture. General Contractor Tim Berky explains how the profile from the original woodwork was revealed, copied, and reproduced for around $2,000. He then shows Bob how he installs the trim pieces, first by filling the gaps at the door edges with expanding foam, then gluing and nailing the trim boards around the sides. Reproduction rosettes trim out the corners of each window and door. Bob looks at the four-panel cherry pocket door that has been installed between the mudroom and kitchen space. Berky nails the trim around the pocket door, being careful not to drive any nails into the door enclosure. On the deck, Bob looks at the deck bench with radial back that is an architectural solution for a tricky corner railing situation.
