Exterior Trim Tips And Tricks


Do you want to make your home stand out from the crowd in Herndon, VA? Well, one of the best ways to do that is to simply update your home’s exterior trim.

While updating the exterior trim of your home’s windows and doors, you can easily add an extra layer of style to your home.

You can choose fun and exciting colors, interesting architectural designs, and custom details that match your exact aesthetic.

Every homeowner is unique, and your home should be, too.

Here are a few ideas for how you can elevate your home’s style with exterior trim.


1. Define Your Windows With Gorgeous
Window Exterior Trim

Your windows are one of the most noticeable parts of your home in Fairfax County. Regardless of what type of windows your home has, the trim you decide to place around them can either enhance them or make them blend into your home’s exterior.

Whether you are looking for a more classic aesthetic for your home or something that truly stands out, exterior window trim can make a massive difference.

Adding decorative trim above or below your windows can make them stand out and create a beautiful visual effect.

You can also go for something a little bit more traditional and add different colored faux shutters to give your home a more vintage vibe while making your windows appear larger on your home.

Your window exterior trim can either blend into your siding for a smooth or clean finish or provide a sharp contrast to make it truly pop.

No matter what you decide, adding window exterior trim is a surefire way to give your home the style upgrade you are looking for.


2. Frame Your Entryway With Exterior Door Trim

Here at Milcon Design & Build, we offer beautiful entry doors that are high-performing and energy-efficient. One of the best ways to upgrade your home’s curb appeal is to make those doors stand out!

Exterior door trim can be installed in your home in a variety of ways to make sure that your style is at the forefront.

Consider installing decorative exterior trim that perfectly frames your door. If you are looking for something more modern, opt for a sleek and simple trim.

But, if you are looking for a more traditional feel, you can turn to ornate designs that make your entryway truly stand out.

One of the best ways to make your home pop is to install a gorgeous archway. This feature brings a new sense of elegance and style to your home and is sure to draw attention.


3. Mix And Match Your Exterior Trim

Whether you decide to add some trim to your window or doors, or you already have some window and door trim, a wonderful option in updating your home is to mix and match the colors you use.

The only limits for your exterior trim are truly your imagination.

A great way to update your home’s curb appeal is to introduce some contrast to your home’s exterior.

If your home has light siding, consider adding some dark colors to your exterior trim. You can either do this by introducing a dark wood trim or picking another trim option in a darker color.

If you have dark siding, consider adding some light trim for some contrast. This can add some beautiful highlights to the architectural designs of your home.

There’s no rule that says your exterior window trim or exterior door trim has to match either.

You can mix and match your trim colors to provide some intrigue to your home’s exterior design.


4. Customize Your Exterior Trim For A Unique Home

Every homeowner in Fairfax County is unique, and your home should be, too.

The great thing about exterior trim is that it is highly customizable. You can choose custom shapes and sizes that stand out from the crowd and bring an added one-of-a-kind look to your home’s aesthetic.

Introduce decorative and intricate designs for a truly special feature and to highlight the architecture.

Are you already happy with your home’s trim but still want an update?

That’s wonderful. Maybe you can add some gorgeous flower boxes to your windows to enhance your trim and create a versatile design element that can change with the seasons.

The options are truly limitless.

We’re so pleased to be able to provide this review of our recent window replacements project with Milton Design and Build- all in all, truly a 5 star event. Owner, Matt Kavanah, followed up on a Thumbtack request for proposals with a home visit to see what we needed and how Milcon Design and Build could help. Matt explained the process, how long it would take to order and get ready for the installation, and most importantly, what we could expect as performance from the ProVia window and door products recommended for our home. Matt indicated that he would have Project Manager, Josh, come out and take precise measurements to make up the order, but for the proposal pricing he was able to give us a very competitive bid based on our conversation that day. We kept coming back to Matt’s straightforward conversation and the value of the windows we would be ordering. The price and quick time-to-install just sealed the deal. Matt made some key suggestions that, after our installation today, proved to be great advice. One of the reasons we chose to do a window replacement now (January) was the cold spots in both our primary bedroom and dining room - opposite ends of our house. Even upgraded HVAC hadn’t been able to overcome the heat loss. Tonight, with a new package of high-efficiency thermally broken windows and sliders installed, we’re actually turning the thermostat down because we’re warm! Thank you to Matt, Josh, Luis, Martin, and the rest of the crew for a great job, for explaining all the tips and techniques to get the most out of the new windows and front door, as well as to keep them looking beautiful for years to come! Thank you, Milcon Design and Build for working with us on this purchase… you guys are awesome!

Outstanding! After weeks of countless window contractor interviews, we found the perfect company. Matt at Milcon, with his many years of experience, provided us with detailed product descriptions to meet our environment requirements, that included muffling the Ashburn Data Center and air traffic noise. They installed over 40 windows in two days! Most important, my wife is so happy with our choice.

I went to Milcon for a quote and they came in under the competition. The staff was super professional and did everything I asked for. The team was quick and was done within hours. I would go back for any future projects.

Matt was very professional, gave us very good advice for the 2 massive doors we had to replace. We were very happy with the process, the execution of the project and the products. We had a very pleasant experience with Matt and his installation crew. Thank you so much.

Right on time. Matt and his team did what they said they were going to do when they said they were going to do it. Painless process from start to finish. I had a new roof in about 48 hours. Highly recommended.

We were in need of a roof replacement so we threw out a few requests on Thumbtack and I’m glad we did since it brought us to Milcon Roofing. Matt reached out very quick and if I recall correctly came out the following day to discuss options. He wasn’t pushy or trying to just sell me something. It was clear he has been in the business for years and more or less just informed me of my options. He also noted his crew gets certified on the roofing systems which we really liked. So we needed up asking for a quote and it was very fair and competitive. I will say, Matt was very professional, quick to reply to texts, his quote was very fair, and his crew was on time and knocked out the job out in less than one day. Oh, also their clean up was outstanding. While I hope to never see Matt again (since the roof will last many more years than we should be here) I would 100% call him back for any future work here or at our next home. If you need a new roof, give them a call, you won’t regret it!

We hired Milcon Roofing, Design & Build for replacing the original aluminum siding on our house. Matt took the time to explain different options and we opted for the insulated siding. Matt was very easy to work with and communicated with us through the entire process. The work crew did an great job despite some days with rough weather. We are very happy with the results, less cold drafts, a reduction in noise and a more modern looking exterior. Everything looks great! Can't recommend enough.
