Installing baseboards is one of those projects that I'd rather not do, but it's not something I can skip. So, in this video, I share ten tips to help you install baseboards faster and better.

It's important to note that this process isn't about rushing; it's about working efficiently and effectively to measure, paint, cut, and install your baseboards.

One of the most important tips I have here is to batch your processes, meaning measure all of your baseboards at once, cut all of them at once, and install them all at once. This saves you from having to go in and out of the house repeatedly.

Many of my other tips are about HOW to batch the process without messing up. You'll learn how to get perfect corners without making multiple cuts.
