"The workers were friendly and actually helped notice some other issues with my roof which I could not see from tree damage (I had trimmed in Nov 2020). Also gave me reasonable quotes on other jobs which I will have done later in the summer."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot.
