Baseboard Installation in Sutton

Baseboards are more than just a piece of trim; they're the finishing touch that connects your walls to your floor. A sloppy job with bad cuts and gaps makes the whole room look cheap. We focus on getting it right the first time. Our installations provide a clean, solid line around your rooms, protecting your drywall from damage and completing the look of your flooring.

Why Professional Installation Matters

You can tell when a baseboard was installed properly. The corners are tight, the seams are invisible, and it sits flat against the wall and floor. Doing this right requires more than a simple miter saw. We use proper techniques like coping inside corners to handle walls that aren't perfectly square, which most aren't. This creates a tight, lasting joint that won't separate over time as the house settles. We secure the trim to the wall studs, not just the drywall, so it stays put.

Our Process is Simple and Clean

We keep things straightforward. First, we take precise measurements of your rooms. Then, we cut all the trim, typically outside or in a designated area to minimize indoor dust. We fasten the baseboards securely with a nailer, then fill every nail hole so they disappear. The final step is running a clean bead of caulk along the top edge where the trim meets the wall. This hides any small imperfections in the drywall and creates a seamless, paint-ready finish. We clean up our work area, leaving you with nothing but finished trim.

Choosing the Right Baseboard

There are a few main options, and the choice comes down to durability and location. MDF is a common, cost-effective choice for most dry areas. For bathrooms or basements where moisture can be an issue, we recommend using solid pine or a PVC composite trim that won't swell or rot. We can help you select a profile and material that makes sense for your home and budget, focusing on what will last the longest and perform the best for your situation.
