Exterior Trim Services in Cranford, NJ
Exterior trim replacement on a Cranford home done correctly starts with finding the moisture source that caused the failure. If the gutters are overflowing onto the fascia, if the window casing has no flashing, if the corner boards have no back-priming — those problems have to be fixed before the new trim goes on or the failure cycle repeats.

- We treat every casing return as a waterproofing detail. Ear returns on window and door casing trap water against the jamb — we design the return to shed, not hold, water.
- We address all substrate irregularities before installing trim over them. Humps, voids, and rot pockets behind trim read through over time — we prep the surface first.
- Every Cranford trim installation comes with a final walk-through checklist signed by the crew lead. Documented quality control before we leave the site.
- NJ HIC licensed, fully insured throughout Union County.

Trim replacement timeline on Cranford homes depends on how many components are involved. A full trim replacement (fascia, soffit, corner boards, window and door casing) on a typical Cranford home takes 2–5 days depending on the size of the home and extent of rot.

PVC trim on Cranford homes requires almost no maintenance — here’s the short list. PVC trim requires almost no maintenance. It won’t rot and doesn’t need painting for many years. Caulk joints at penetrations and corners should be inspected annually and resealed when they crack or separate. A rinse with a garden hose once a year to remove debris is sufficient. Compared to wood trim, the maintenance reduction is significant.
Window and door casing is one of the most common water entry points on older Cranford 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.
