Will there be any trim work needed (base board, casing, etc.). If so, can details be provided. Arrow Right Answer: Since this is a temporary (6-8 month) exhibit, we don't think that including base boards on the built walls will be necessary. The permanent walls of the gallery space itself have base boards, but they are all painted already other than one wall that will need a different color paint (it is approximately 17' 6" x 10'). We will provide that color in a detailed paint plan that will be provided. If there is casing around the door that is to be installed (on page 15 of the Basket_Exhibit_Wall_Builds_RFQ_04032026.pdf) that will need to be painted. | Finishes - Trim Work The bid documents mention all finishes, but I do not see any details for any trim work required.
