Trim updates in Roosevelt.
Roosevelt is an established north-side neighborhood with a mix of older bungalows and mid-century ranches. A lot of these homes still wear their original flat 1960s casing and plain trim, which reads dated next to everything else owners have updated. The finish carpentry here is mostly about bringing the trim up to match a refreshed interior.
The common work in Roosevelt is swapping flat builder casing for profiled trim, adding crown molding to update a dated room, thickening up base, and building out closets and pantries that the original floor plan came up short on. It is satisfying bread-and-butter finish work: clean profiles, tight miters, and storage that makes a mid-century house live like a newer one.

Climate & material considerations
Roosevelt homes take the same marine humidity swing as the rest of town. We acclimate trim and gap for movement so new casing stays tight.
