    Gutting a room
    When gutting a room, do I need to remove the trim and sill around the window ? I have replacement windows that have caulk around the inside trim

    What do you mean by gutting a room? If you're not removing drywall around the window then you should be able to leave it alone.

    Buffet, you really would need to be a bit more specifi about what you are doing. The trim is on top of the drywall but the sill is part of the frame.
