As 2025 draws to a close, we’re keeping an eye on what’s coming in millwork and outdoor living for 2026. Here are trends we see taking shape for next year:
• Clean, minimalist trim profiles with big overhangs and subtle reveals
• Sustainable and recycled synthetic materials (like PVC and ACRE)
• Indoor outdoor seamless transitions: patios, pergolas, and porches
• Multi functional outdoor spaces with lighting, heating, privacy enhancements
• Custom-moulding profiles that blend traditional craftsmanship with modern design

What trend are you most excited to see or incorporate in your home or project? Let’s plan together.

Bathrooms, coastal interiors, or any room with high moisture demand trim that won’t warp, rot or degrade. Here's why synthetic materials like PVC and ACRE shine:
• Resist water damage, swelling, and warping
• Less prone to mold and mildew with proper installation
• Require less sealing/maintenance than wood in humid areas
• Can mimic the look of traditional wood if that’s your aesthetic

Remodeling a bathroom or coastal home interior? We can help you choose moulding profiles and trim materials that perform reliably and look great.

Deck your pergolas and patios with holiday magic—safely, stylishly, and in harmony with your outdoor architecture. Here are tips:
• Use outdoor rated lighting and décor to avoid moisture or fire hazards.
• Accent trim or structural elements with soft lighting (uplights, string lights) rather than heavy items.
• Choose decorations that won’t trap moisture or damage finishes when snow melts.
• Use colors, greenery, or fabrics that complement your home’s style and your trim/millwork material.

We love seeing holiday transformations—share yours with us below!

Winter weather in New England can be brutal, especially on outdoor wood or even PVC and ACRE. Here are a few tips to ensure your pergola stays beautiful through snow, ice, salt and freeze thaw cycles:
• Clean surfaces: remove leaves, dirt, salt residue
• Inspect joints and fasteners: tighten or replace loose ones
• For wood: reseal or touch up finishes where paint or sealant has worn
• Ensure drainage: avoid water pooling near bases or trim

Choosing trim for your project? Here’s a quick look at your options:
• ACRE: durable, lighter weight than wood, great for coastal conditions, sustainable
• PVC: Extremely moisture and rot resistant, low maintenance, stable color
• Wood: Traditional look, natural grain, familiar aesthetic

Each option comes with its own benefits and cautions. Your environment, design style, budget and maintenance tolerance all matter. If you need help selecting the right material for your project, we’d be happy to walk you through options.
