If you aren’t planning on running shoe moulding or quarter round on the base in the future. you should run a bead of caulk along the blue tape before painting to fill in the gaps between the tile and baseboard. When you removed the tape when done painting you have a clean gap free look.

Pickup color-matched (to the grout or baseboard) silicon. Creates a nice finished look under the baseboard and keeps water, cleaning supplies, etc. from seeping under and discoloring. Especially important in bathrooms and kitchens that get regular "wet" floor cleanings.

I did PVC base in my laundry room. I knew I didn't want wood and was surprised to find a matching white PVC base at Menards. Caulked it well and basically made a bathtub.

Quick tip when doing baseboard. Find the wall studs beforehand and mark their location with pieces of blue painters tape. Then when nailing the baseboard you’ll always hit a stud.

@@garycasper2929- It's better than having to straighten an old floor or wall enough for finish nails alone to hold. I don't think they are advocating gluing commonly or for situations where brads or finish nails alone will hold it. I have spots on almost every trim job where a bit of adhesive makes it possible to get the trim to stay where I need it, but never use glue where nails suffice, for exactly the reason you mention. Hopefully our combined comments will keep some "ovrkill bill" from gluing all of their trim in place!😂

glad to see creative solutions to our current supply chain issues. There's always a way! I lived in South FL with humidity so I used PVC/vinyl moulding for the base and crown so I wouldn't have issues.

First, the polystyrene is "perfect" for my ongoing recovering from the 2021 14 below zero damage project. I would never have even considered it. The tip on cutting fast so you don't melt it? Thank you. No telling how many cuts I would have made before I finally came to that realization. Also, your paint brush suspension system?!?!?!? PRICELESS!!!!!

As someone who works is water and mold restoration. If you want to make that really water proof, chalk it to the ground. Otherwise the water will still get under it, even from normal use. It'll use the grout lines as highways. The base is water proof but the sheet rock is a food source for mold. An option if you don't like the chalked base look. You can run a small bead at the wall floor meeting. So when you snap your base in it'll be hidden. Disclaimer this is for plastic base only!!!! Also great content love you guys!

Outstanding video as always! I like the walk through the Home Depot trim isle. I have a basement bathroom with MDF trim that has gotten wet and swelled and will be replacing it - that isle is a little intimidating for a hobbyist like me but you broke it down great!

Finished a bathroom renovation a couple of months ago - used the 12x4 subway tiles for the baseboard with Schluter trim - it does look nice, but man, the stone option is sweet and would have been SO much easier! It would have taken me 30 minutes instead of hours of cuts and grouting... and would have looked awesome. The poly option actually looks pretty good too! Love love love the out takes and comments (outfeed table 🤣🤣🤣).

Hey Stud Pack, try using a clear caulk against the floor just before you paint. Prevents any bleed under the tape and will fill the dips in grout lines. Either tool the caulk or pull the tape asap after painting so the tape can cut the caulk. Makes the base look scribed to fit.

🤣🤣🤣🤣Love those out takes guys, your videos continue to get better and better all the time. And I am always learning new things from them.

I especially like that plastic type of molding for the bathroom. When I install it I run a continuous line of caulk along the bottom and ends. This is so if you have a leak or get wild with the mopping it will not go under the molding and into the walls. It becomes a little bathtub and prevents water damage. It also keeps those pesky bugs from crawling out of the walls.

Pvc base molding works pretty good too.

I'm glad you like the product. I used it in my bath and the shoe in kitchen. When I mop, no problem!

Azek makes pvc mouldings made for exterior applications. Lowes carries a few different profiles . Not cheap but what is .

I am grateful to you guys for showing the fix for things that have gone wrong. That's what is missing from TOH and some other shows. They show one of the perfect ways to do something but not the way to fix a blunder.

Wow, you are an excellent teacher. Thank you for running through the options as you did.

That "plastic wood" is great stuff. Good for outdoor jobs as well. I put some on a shed I resheathed a couple years ago.

The nail in the brush trick is genius! Love the channel!

Excellent video and topic. My wife and I have been discussing these material options recently as we retrim our entire home. Due to price and supply considerations, we are using MDF everywhere except the bathrooms and kitchen. PVC is the way. I've also used some PVC boards as an exterior finish under a sliding glass door and plan to use it under the front door where I have already removed rotten wood. Thanks guys. Love the channel and all the little tips sprinkled throughout each video.

Learning so much from you guys. A few of your tips being used here in Ireland

The attention to detail is impressive. Looing at grout lines and baseboard lines to make them appear as paralell is first class professional. I am going to copy your idea of the nail hook on the brush. GENIUS. I've had various techniques over the years, nothing that simple and effective.

I did the same thing for my first house flip. I bought some marble 12x12" tiles for the floor and shower, then cut some 3" strips from the tiles for a baseboard. I did have small grout lines, but the finish looked outstanding. It also saved me a bit of money too. In fact, I bought a wet grinder and polishing tools and bullnosed the edges to a 3000 polish.

Durhams water putty is all we use! But we like the premixed stuff. Love that stuff!

It's been a while since I was in the home store but they used to offer a pvc molding that was a little more heavy and didn't mar up as easily. Also was a solid color all the way though so you didn't have to worry to much about that issue either.

Love the video! Thanks for the idea and insight! I'm definitely going to use polystyrene, or even solid stone baseboards in my project!

I’ve done base the same way here in VA. The cordless dewalt orbital will save you a few minutes when hooked to the vac. Nice video as always guys!

Dunham’s Water Putty definitely something I will try. Looks pretty much all purpose and low waste long storage. Might replace plaster of Paris for nail fills in my walls.

Holy production quality Batman! You guys have leveled up. I like how you focus on the decision process as well as the install. Thanks

Another great video! 👍🏻👍🏻 (SO glad y'all made this channel.) Tip I used for taping quickly when I was doing a lot of interior work: ditch the roll of tape and putty knife... use the tape/paper maskers from the paint department, but with no paper on them (only tape). You do have to be careful that you don't cut yourself on the blade, but as long as you go around the room from Left to Right, it'll become much faster than the old way. (Another side benefit discovered when I started using maskers for all my tape jobs: when I finally used a masker with tape and paper for painting, I had so much experience with the masker that I could move at a fast walk... which soon became a slow jog... even on stilts.)

THANK YOU.I'LL BE USING EXACTLY THE SAME BASE ON MY NEW BATHROOM. YOU ARE THE BEST,
