What millwork means
Millwork is the shaped wood made in a mill for finish work: door and window casing, baseboard, crown, stair parts, paneling and built ins.
Also called finish carpentry, trim.

Trim jobs are priced by the linear foot or by the opening, and paint grade versus stain grade changes both material and labor. Ask which before you quote.
