Trim & Fascia in Maplewood, NJ

Partial trim replacement is something we do on Maplewood homes when the scope and moisture source warrant it. Yes. If the rot is isolated to one area — a single corner board, one fascia run, or a section of window casing — a targeted repair is appropriate. We can splice in PVC sections or replace individual boards. Color matching on painted trim is straightforward. If the rot extends further than expected once we open it up, we’ll show you what we find before proceeding.

Frieze board is a trim component that many Maplewood homeowners don’t know by name until it rots. Frieze board is the horizontal trim band that runs along the top of the wall just below the soffit. It’s common on colonial-style homes throughout NJ. When it rots, water enters the wall cavity at the top of the wall. We replace frieze boards with PVC or fiber cement as part of full exterior trim packages. We’ll identify all deteriorated components during the estimate.

Window and door casing is one of the most common water entry points on older Maplewood homes. We remove all existing casing around windows and doors, inspect the flashing and housewrap behind it, correct any issues, and install new PVC or fiber cement casing with proper caulking at all edges. Window and door casing is one of the most common water entry points on older NJ homes — doing it right the first time prevents the cycle of rot coming back.
