I'll be replacing my carpet and would like to replace the baseboards.
Should
I install the baseboards after the new carpet is installed (on top of the
new carpet), or should I pull back the old carpet and lay the baseboard
directly on the floor before the new carpet is installed?

I've heard arguments for both ways, but it makes more sense to me to
install
the base boards before new carpet is laid.

thanks for your responses

One thing to keep in mind is if this is an old house with lathe and horse
hair plaster, you will be replacing much more than baseboards if you try to
remove them.
