Vermont Plat House - more progress images

categories: , , ,

More progress, more images. What more could we ask for? Hey? What happened to all the snow? Not sure, but it was 86 in Philadelphia today (crazy!) The fire place is coming together. More siding outside - this time marching around the guest bedrooms. The owner is using this recessed extruded aluminum baseboard. Thar she blows!

    Is there more information on the extruded aluminum recessed baseboard.

    I am not sure who's product they used, but I would recommend Pittcon. They make a wide assortment of extruded aluminum drywall trims, including recessed baseboards as you see here. Google them - they should be easy to find.

    Is the recessed baseboard already intalled? Or is it only prepped for the baseboard. If it is installed it looks like outside corners might be the difficult finish detail to perfect. Thank you for the Pittcon information.

    Yes, I believe the aluminum base is in place as the drywall is typically finished right up to a spackle bead that is an integral part of the extrusion. But you are right - the corner is open there and needs some adjustment. I've worked with similar aluminum drywall trim before and it is unforgiving - you have to get your miter cuts dead on.
