About Our Capping & Trim Service in Woodstock
Window and trim capping — wrapping exposed wood with durable aluminum — is one of the most effective ways to eliminate exterior maintenance and prevent rot. D&D Exterior Finishing installs precision colour-matched aluminum capping throughout Ontario, protecting windows, doors, and fascia boards from moisture infiltration and the need for annual painting.
Ontario Building Code & Climate Context: Ontario's climate — with freeze-thaw cycles that can occur dozens of times per winter — is particularly destructive to painted wood trim. Water infiltrates cracks, freezes, and expands, causing paint failure and wood decay within just a few seasons. The Ontario Building Code requires all exterior assemblies to manage moisture effectively, and properly installed aluminum capping is an accepted and reliable solution. At D&D Exterior Finishing, every capping installation is completed to Ontario Building Code standards.

Frequently Asked Questions — Capping & Trim in Woodstock
What is window capping and why do I need it?
Window capping wraps exposed wood trim around windows and doors with pre-formed aluminum. It stops rot, eliminates painting, and improves the finished look of your home's exterior. Most homes over 10 years old can benefit from capping.
How much does capping cost?
Pricing depends on the number of windows and doors and the size of each unit. D&D Exterior Finishing provides free, detailed written estimates — contact us to schedule a no-obligation assessment.
Can you match my existing trim colour?
Yes. We carry a wide selection of aluminum coil colours and can match or complement virtually any exterior colour scheme. We bring samples to your estimate appointment.
How long does a capping installation take?
Most homes are completed in a single day. Larger properties or those with extensive trim work may require two days. We confirm the timeline before work begins.
Will capping work on my older home?
Absolutely. Capping works on homes of any age. We assess the condition of underlying wood during our estimate — if any trim requires repair before capping, we'll include that in our recommendation.
