Installing new window and door trim can tremendously improve the appearance of a room. Many new styles and profiles of trim stock are available, so you should have no problem finding one to complement your room's decor. Installing new window and door trim is not a difficult job, even with only hand tools. It just requires painstaking care for the finished job to look right. Many homes have trim that fits poorly because some builders and carpenters do not invest the time necessary to fit all the joints properly. They rely on filling gaps with caulk, which eventually becomes apparent.
There are several types of composite trim materials available that look very nice. Since you are obviously new to fitting trim, it is probably best to stick with wood. You may have to do some final filing, sanding or carving for that perfect joint; wood is generally the easiest material.
After you select the trim profile that you want, carefully check each piece of trim that you buy, especially the profile at the ends. When lumberyards and home centers get deliveries of trim stock, it may have come from two or three different runs at the lumber mill. Measure the thickness and compare the end profiles for pieces with the most uniformity.

Georgia is the largest state E of the Mississippi River and has three main topographical areas. Extending inland from the coast is a low coastal plain that covers the southern half of the state. In mountainous N Georgia are the Appalachian Plateau, the valley and ridge province, and the Blue Ridge province. Bridging these two sections and embracing about one third of the state is the Piedmont foothill region in central Georgia. A number of islands, part of the Sea Islands chain, lie off Georgia's coastline.
