A complete interior finish carpentry project in Milton — beginning with the removal of the old jambs and installation of the vinyl flooring, then continuing through to the new doors, custom jambs, window extensions, casing and beam covers.
The project included 13 interior doors, eight window jamb extensions and nine individually fitted bathroom beam covers. Most of the visible materials were pre-finished, which meant the cuts, mitres, reveals and fastening points had to be right during installation. There was no painter coming afterward to hide rough joints or repair damaged surfaces.
After removing the existing jambs, I installed the vinyl flooring before building and fitting the new door system around the finished floor height. The doors received custom-sized jambs, non-mortise hinges and concealed magnetic catches, with much of the casing assembled before installation for tighter, cleaner mitres.
Eight window openings also needed custom jamb extensions to bring them out properly to the finished wall surface. In the bathroom, nine exposed beam sections were measured separately and covered one by one, since their dimensions and surrounding conditions were not identical.
This Milton project shows how the individual parts of an interior need to work together. Flooring affects jamb height. Jambs affect door clearances and reveals. Wall depth determines the window extensions. Pre-finished trim requires every cut and joint to be handled carefully from the beginning.
From the first removal to the final piece of trim, the work remained under one responsibility.
