Trim & Casing Repair in San Francisco and the Peninsula
The trim in an older Peninsula home is often better material than money can buy today. Damaged casing, worn stair parts, and tired built-ins get repaired and matched — not ripped out and replaced with something close enough.
- If it’s not right, we make it right — 30-day callback.
- Fully insured and bonded.
- One published member rate — $125/hr.
How we work on trim
Profile matching is the craft. A damaged section of casing or base gets cut back to clean joints and spliced with stock milled or built up to match the original profile — the eye reads continuous molding, not a patch. Where a whole run has to come off, it comes off carefully; old-growth material that survives removal goes back on the wall.
Interior carpentry rides on the same skills: shelving that sags, built-ins whose doors have dropped, banisters loose at the newel, stair treads that creak and cup. These are joinery problems with joinery answers — re-gluing, re-blocking, refastening into solid framing — not caulk-and-hope.
The finish is part of the repair. Nail holes filled, joints caulked where the original was caulked, primed and painted to the existing line — or stained and blended where the woodwork is clear-finished. Done right, you stop being able to find the repair within a week of living with it.
Scope, plainly
- Trim & casing — repair/replace, matched profiles
- Interior carpentry — shelving, built-in adjustments, banisters, stairs
Bigger than a repair? We'll say so at the walk-through and point you to people we trust.
What this doesn't cover
Major remodels, permit-requiring work, and full rebuilds are project territory — we'll tell you plainly at the walk-through, and when a job needs a licensed specialty trade we coordinate vetted subs on one invoice.
What it costs
One published member rate — $125/hr — booked in half- or full-day visits. No per-job quotes, no padding. 2 free hours apply first, to your first project each membership year. See membership pricing →

Common questions
All questions →What happens at the walk-through?
About an hour, free. We document rooms, mechanicals, appliances, measurements and paint codes to start your home's record, then plan your first visit around a real first project.
I just bought my home. Can you use my inspection report?
Yes. Bring it to the walk-through and we'll turn its findings into your to-do list.
What does the membership include?
Annual Membership is $500/yr: a documented walk-through, your list managed by us, priority scheduling, the crew at $125/hr whenever you book, 2 free hours every membership year applied to your first project, an annual Home Health Check, a direct line to your home advisor, and access to our referral network of vetted tradespeople.
What's the hourly rate, and how does crew size affect it?
$125/hr, and that covers a crew of up to 2. When safety or scope needs more hands — heavy carries, working at height — each additional tech is $55/hr, and we flag it before we book the visit, never after.
