Custom Trim Accents
Nothing defines the finished appearance of your home more than the application of high quality finish trim products. New vinyl siding certainly enhances your home's appearance, but detailed trim work applied by
a skilled craftsman brings out the best in even the highest quality siding job.
What is trim? Simply put, trim is all of the exterior
wood on your home that is not shingle or clapboard
siding. Window sills and casings, door casings,
fascia boards, rake boards, soffit boards and corner
boards are all considered trim. On some homes,
additional trim boards such as water table and
frieze boards, as well as architectural mouldings,
are all considered trim.
Custom trim work can be applied in many ways with many different products. At North Star-Bailey
Company, we use only the highest quality products
that will stand up to the test of time and the
extreme conditions of New England weather.
Custom Fabricated Aluminum Trim
is maintenance-free
Aluminum trim is the most common and cost
effective way to trim out your home. Aluminum
is most commonly used in fascia, rake, frieze,
corner, water table, window and door trim
applications. Our product of choice,
Alcoa Aluminum Trim Sheet is available in a wide array of colors, and Alcoa's Alumalure 2000® paint finish has withstood the test of time
against the most extreme elements, including UV
radiation, acid rain and corrosive salt air. Extremely
chalk, fade and corrosion resistant, your custom
fabricated Alcoa aluminum trim will hold its shape
and look like new for years to come.
At North Star-Bailey, we take great pride in our
ability to custom fabricate aluminum trim into shapes that will match your home's original
architecture.
When done right, aluminum trim
will provide you with a long lasting, maintenance- free 'brand new look'.
Vinyl Trim Accessories that look
like real wood
There are many vinyl products available on the
market today that can be installed to keep within
a homes original architectural style or to add detail
and character to an otherwise plain style looking
home. Some are designed to be installed in
conjunction with vinyl siding, and others can be installed in a stand-alone, 'trim only' type of job.

For products designed to be installed with vinyl siding,
click on the CertainTeed Vinyl CarpentryTM
brochure. These vinyl products include Cornice Moulding, Crown Moulding, 3-1/2" and 5" Window Lineal, Traditional and Beaded SuperCornerTM.
They have built-in siding receiving channels and
are the perfect compliment to any siding job.
Vinyl trim products that can be installed with
siding or in trim only type installations include:
vinyl soffit panels, Azek pvc trim boards, Azek
pvc mouldings and CertainTeed Restoration Millwork®.
Vinyl soffit panels are used when soffit trim boards are 6"- 8" wide or larger. We love
the CertainTeed Triple 3-1/3" InvisiVent
vinyl soffit panel. It has a deep defined look,
offers 50% more ventilation than most other vinyl
soffit panels, and the ventilation holes are invisible.
You get the unique look of a solid panel combined
with increased ventilation area of InvisiVent. This
is an exceptionally attractive product.
PVC Boards and Mouldings eliminate
rot and painting
PVC exterior trim boards and mouldings are rapidly
becoming the trim of choice for many South Shore
homeowners. These solid vinyl boards are available
in the same nominal thickness as lumber and can
be cut, milled, shaped and routed just like wood.
PVC boards will never split, rot or decay from
moisture or insects, providing you with many years
of beautiful, worry free performance. PVC boards
are produced in white but can also be painted to
match any color you prefer.
CertainTeed Restoration Millwork® cellular PVC boards are ideally suited when combined with vinyl siding, as the built-in 'J' channels eliminate seams for a fantastic finish to your home. CertainTeed has added a 16" wide board to the product line, as well as a 1-1/2" thick board for deeper pockets to accommodate siding with 1" projections.
Azek® trim are industry leaders and readily available in smooth and woodgrain finishes.
At North Star-Bailey, we have a long list of satisfied customers where we have installed PVC trim on the entire home, or just to replace any problem areas, often in conjunction with window and door installations.
Polyurethane Millwork for exceptional long lasting beauty
The name may be confusing, but the finished product is exquisite. High-density polyurethane can be moulded into any shape and each piece has a consistent quality and beautiful, durable finish. The closed cell structure prevents water penetration and absorption, making it an exceptional choice for high quality, maintenance-free moulded trim work.
