What baseboard material is best?

MDF is a good standard for most rooms. It's stable and affordable. If you expect moisture or want something that can take more of a beating, solid wood is a better choice. We can advise on what's practical for your home.

Do you paint the baseboards?

We install them so they are ready for paint. Our job is the precise cutting, fitting, and securing of the trim. This ensures painters have a smooth, solid surface to work with.

How long does installation take for a whole house?

It depends on the size and complexity, but most average-sized homes can be completed in one to two days. We focus on doing it correctly, not just quickly. Call us at (647) 898-7839 for a clear estimate.

Baseboards are more than just a piece of trim; they're the final step that makes a flooring job look complete. They protect the base of your drywall from damage and cover the gap left for your floor to expand. A bad installation with sloppy corners and gaps looks cheap and won't last. We focus on getting the cuts right and the installation secure. For homeowners in Orono, we provide a straightforward service that gets the job done right. Baseboard Installation

The Right Way to Install Baseboards

The main job of a baseboard is practical: it protects your walls. Vacuums, furniture, kids' toys – they all hit the bottom of the wall. Good baseboards take that impact. They also give any room a finished look, connecting the floor to the walls. We don't mess around with flimsy materials or take shortcuts on the corners. A tight miter joint is the difference between a professional job and a sloppy one.

Material and Style Choices

Most people use MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard) trim. It's cost-effective, comes pre-primed, and looks clean when painted. For areas that might see more moisture or for a more traditional look, solid wood like pine or oak is a tougher option. We'll help you pick the right material for the room. Style-wise, simple is usually better and more durable. We focus on classic profiles that look good with any type of flooring and are easy to keep clean.

Our Process is Simple and Solid

We measure twice and cut once. Every piece is cut for a tight fit, especially in the corners. We use a combination of construction adhesive and finishing nails to make sure the trim is locked to the wall and won't warp or pull away over time. Once installed, we fill the nail holes and caulk the top seam against the wall. This creates a seamless finish that's ready for paint and built to handle daily life.

"We are so pleased with our new floors and staircase! The team removed carpet from two rooms, staircase & landing and replaced it all with beautiful hardwood. During our initial consultation, we were provided with several options on what would work best in the space, and a very reasonable quote. Rudy & his team are professional in every way - punctual, detail oriented and are truly experts in what they do. We will definitely call Delight Flooring for our next job - thanks again Rudy!"

"Rudy is amazing and hasn't let me down yet. We all know how hard it can be dealing with contractors these days. They promise the moon but don't deliver. With Rudy, things are very different. If he promises, he will deliver. I have gotten 3 projects done with Rudy. There were nominal delays but Rudy is very professional and communicative. The first one was hardwood for about 800 sqft, the second one was hardwood for 1000 sqft and the third one was over 1500 sqft plus stairs. There were some problems with the stairs and Rudy was out of the country for a long time. However, as soon as he came back, he came to my house and fixed it, no charge."
