Often times, it's easier to match the trim detail that already exists in a home or public building than to replace every piece with a different style of wood work.  For others, keeping a home or building historically correct is important for preserving its historical integrity.  No matter what the reason, Building Appeal excels in exact duplication of existing Victorian woodwork.  For more information on how we can help you acquire custom millwork, see Matching Your Existing Woodwork.

A Short History of Victorian Architecture

Victorian architecture spanned from the 1830s through the turn of the century and is still extremely popular today. Victorian woodwork is often stately and known for its detail and high degree of craftsmanship. (For a more thorough discussion on the Victorian era, see The History of Victorian Architecture or the History of Architectural Woodwork.)
