New Baseboards for Auburndale, MA Homes
Homeowners in Auburndale, MA often need new baseboards after a project changes the room around them. Common reasons include:
- New flooring that leaves old trim too short or uneven
- A finished basement or remodeled room with bare walls
- Split or dented boards in busy hallways and entries
- Gaps between the trim and the floor or wall
- Dated profiles that no longer match the rest of the home
If your walls were just repaired or hung, drywall installation and repair and new baseboards go hand in hand.
Contact TGS Home Improvement to plan your new trim.
Choosing a Baseboard Style
The right profile depends on your ceiling height, the style of your home, and the trim already in place. Common options include the following.
Flat or Square-Edge Baseboards
A simple, modern look that suits newer homes and minimalist rooms.
Colonial and Ogee Profiles
Curved, detailed edges that fit traditional New England homes.
Taller Baseboards
Wider boards add presence to rooms with high ceilings.
Base Cap and Shoe Molding
Smaller pieces along the top or bottom of the baseboard that cover gaps and add detail.
We can help you choose a profile that blends with the door and window casings already in your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should baseboards go in before or after new flooring?
With hardwood, tile, or vinyl, baseboards are usually installed after the flooring so the trim sits directly on the finished floor. With carpet, baseboards typically go in first, raised slightly so the carpet can tuck beneath them.
What is shoe molding, and do I need it?
Shoe molding is a small rounded strip installed along the bottom of the baseboard. It covers gaps caused by uneven floors and is common with hardwood and tile.
How tall should my baseboards be?
Many homes use baseboards between 3 and 5 inches tall. Rooms with ceilings of 9 feet or higher often look better with taller boards in the 5 to 7 inch range.
Can new baseboards be painted to match my existing trim?
Yes. Interior painting is one of our services, so new baseboards can be painted to match your casings and doors.
