I live North of there.......in CA.
We back wash the exterior siding but have never sealed the interior
kickboard.
Is that because "mopping a floor"?
I guess if he pays...........I would do it.......just takes more time.....

In a fully-insulated home in N. California SF Bay Area (very temperate
climes) is it common to seal the back side as well as the front of
kickboard
molding? The owner is insisting that the back side be sealed also with
organic varnish or polyurethane.

Recommendations?

Thanks.
