Don't put the nail into the laminate.

I see you didn't take my original suggestion about removing the
baseboards and putting the laminate underneath.



I had already begun laying the flooring when you recommended removing
the baseboards, I just hadn't worked my way up to the door jambs. Next
job the baseboards will be removed. I would be curious to know what
most installers do with regard to existing baseboards.


We had baseboards undercut when we had tile installed. Not a DIY job
here, but it was done just
after a new paint job without dinging the paint. No quarter round.


Could you explain to me what tool they used to undercut existing baseboard?
I can't imagine undercutting 60 plus linear feet of baseboard. Cutting that
far up, usually there's not much meat left on the baseboard.

Just curious
