Installing Exterior Window Trim. The Idaho Painter Way.

What happens here

Carefully position the prepared trim pieces around the window. Start with the top piece, ensuring it is level, and then install the side pieces, followed by the bottom. Use a nail gun to securely fasten each trim piece to the house siding. Ensure the nails are countersunk slightly below the surface of the wood.

Goal: Securely install the prepped trim pieces around the window
