Trim and molding

The room size, the trim profile, and what corners or gaps you’re fighting.

• Attach your Sheet so people see your sizes and the math.
• Your town is enough. Never your address; check photos for house numbers and plates.
• Is it safe? A safety question here goes to pros verified in general contracting or carpentry, unless you pick another trade. Only they can call it safe or unsafe.

14′ × 12′ room: 49 ft of baseboard (2 × 16′ + 2 × 12′), in lengths that fit your walls, and 2 tubes of caulk.

What people get wrong:

• Mitering inside corners. Miters on inside corners open up as the house moves.
• Nailing shoe into the floor. A floating floor has to move under it: nail shoe to the baseboard only.
• No reveal on casing. Casing flush with the jamb edge shows every wiggle.
