Not really a mistake, but remove the base trim before installing the flooring,
unlike all the TV experts I've seen. A piece of 1/4 round chunked onto the last
board looks tacky to me.

Build in the time to remove and re-install the trim, or maybe upsell them to a
nice oak trim that matches the flooring. Either way, yank the old stuff.
