More progress. Flooring arrives so I could finally start working on the baseboard trim.

Ed M said...: Looks like a tremendous amount of work went into the baseboard trim (fitting, puttying, sanding, painting...). Glad to see it's all coming together!; April 16, 2021 at 8:38 AM
AJ (Allan) Wright said...: You are correct Ed, thanks for the kind words. My back, knees and legs are going to be feeling it for a while after all that. Good thing I get to bend over and lay flooring next...wait what!??; April 16, 2021 at 8:49 AM
Dave Gamer said...: This is just me, but I would have put in the flooring first and then the baseboards over it. Now you're going to have to put in shoe molding (moulding?) after you put in the flooring. Or am I missing something?; April 16, 2021 at 10:55 AM
AJ (Allan) Wright said...: I've spaced the baseboards so the flooring will slide under. Since they're rubber tiles this should be relatively easy to do. If I put the baseboards in after, yes the fit would be easier, but then I risk getting paint on the floor everywhere I touch up the nail holes. 6 to 1, half dozen to the other.

Doing it this way in a previous install worked well enough.; April 16, 2021 at 10:58 AM
