They aren’t for a novice it for true professional’s. Why cause it the proper tool for it n definitely not expensive. Fyi but great video like ur method.
What if you have multiple outside corners in one single run do you lay out the entire length of the wall Mark and cut the first outside corner then go and mark the next outside corner or do you suggest doing a butt joint in between?
We never heat up the base.... I'm thinking its worth the effort. Especially on that cement wall by the door frame. Because that cold wall is definitely going to want to shrink the base (I'm in Canada....shrinking base is an issue. Ha! shrinkage)
Yo I’m a base master and I would run circles around this guy doing 4 inch cove base I can easily do 16 boxes of roll on a regular work hour shift and how I do it is wat faster and better and I don’t use no torch 😂
@@Doityourselfwithjoe wait you could sue for what and it's ok in my apt my land lord will just replace it. I don't need permission my living situation is with total freedom I'm just asking a question. I'll just go to home Depot and get the help I need...
Are you asking about the important piece like rolling the base, making sure it seated so it doesn’t look like straight base and all wavy, making sure the outside corner floor section is still cove and not straight, properly spreading adhesive like the manufacturer recommends, how to make an inside corner so a pencil doesn’t fit in the corner. At the speed and way some videos show, you’d have to charge $3 a Iinear foot just to buy lunch
@@slolojr1 haven't finished the video, but at least it started on a high note since this is the only YT cove base video that doesn't show the guy cutting base holding it in his hand with a spare thumb directly in the path of razor blade under tension...
Good luck on your video. I wasn’t trying to be critical of this guy. I appreciate all the people who actually put info out there that is helpful. Flooring just happens to be what I do and was most critical of my own work. There’s no one perfect way in my book, but only a few ways give really good or correct results. All the little details result in the larger best install. Sadly our trades are in the battle to quicker, dumber, cheaper, and good enough.
I gave up wood baseboard after watching this video. Thank you very much for your wonderful video.
Putting this in laundry room and behind appliances (frig, stove, dryer, washer) after new flooring!!
Great workmanship and photography. Thanks.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Great video, I have done base but never this perfect. Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks for your video. Very helpful!
Thanks a lot for this video, it was very helpful!
You're welcome!
People who glue the whole piece, have never had to remove base that’s been fully glued 😮

Ive done it both ways. I did a practice cut when I didn't have a butt joint.

I would assume once glued to the wall there’s no going back, right? What I mean is one cannot remove it without damaging the drywall.
Depends on how long after the install. If it is with in a day after the install you can usually remove the base but yes, it does pull the paper off.
How do you do the base for curved wall? Do you have a video on that?
Rubber base on a curved wall or regular wood base on a curved wall?
@@Doityourselfwithjoe I figured it out I nailed it with my compressor worked perfect thanks

That’s good to know, but I’m a novice and appreciate someone taking the time to instruct me.
considering he was making a video how do you know you can do it faster when he's not videoing?
What kind of glue do you use?
It's vinyl base glue from Menards.
@@Doityourselfwithjoe thank you we don’t have a Menards in Arizona. I’ll check Home Depot.
Question can I paint this. I have it through out my apt. It's so hideous I would like to paint it white...
I've seen it done. I don't recommend it. Also if you are renting I would not do it without permission from the landlord. I could sue you for it!

Instead of a torch would a heat gun work?
Yes it would
What type of glue?
Its glue that is specifically designed for rubber or vinyl base. You can get it at Menards or home depot
What glue do you use?
Its glue for rubber base. It should be in the same location as the rubber base material.
That's vinyl base that's not rubber base.. rubber base is much easier to work with
Why is every video wrong, base is so easy, he forgot the most important peice of info, so much anxiety
What’s the most important piece of info?😊
