Why is carpentry different in Central San Diego?

Craftsman bungalows in North Park and Normal Heights have distinctive original millwork, thick baseboards with cap and shoe molding, door casings with backbands, that's thicker and more detailed than anything available off the shelf. When owners want to restore rather than replace, we profile-match on a router table and splice in new sections invisibly.
