I use old vertical blind slats cut to 3-4 feet and push it under the baseboard, shielding the carpet, moving it along as I paint.

@tiffanyweldon2489 2 месяца назад

THANK YOU! That just saved me using up my masking tape for the carpet side and saved me on buying a 10"~ drywall knife! I have old ass blinds that will do the trick!

@Grahame59 10 месяцев назад

Masking works well if you are lucky to have a gap at the bottom of the skirting board though here in the UK our skirting boards don't usually have a gap. Also I'd suggest also putting a tarpaulin or cover over the main carpet to avoid any paint drips from the paint can, etc.

@gilpetperdon9831 9 месяцев назад

Yes, I live in the UK too and don't know if thats the same with me because my carpet is quite thick but now I realise I probably don't have a gap, such an American thing, everything they have just bloody works.

@georgemacdonald5282 9 месяцев назад

In our houses in uk dont have any gap between skirting and floor, if you can tuck your carpet under the skirting there must be something wrong

@georgemacdonald5282 9 месяцев назад

You dont need to put masking tape on the wall to paint the skirting boards etc and you dont need to be a professional to cut in your paint so to avoid masking tape.

@LobbyDaLobster 9 месяцев назад

Same with Australia

@AmericanSoldierSioux1969 6 месяцев назад

That wide brown packing paper (for me) is the best method to cover the carpeting and a great idea.....I'm a clumsy painter, lol. The blue tape is too skinny for me and I'd get it all over the carpet. Thanks for posting and sharing my friend. 👍👍

@dwurry1 11 месяцев назад

In stead of tape, paper or other stuff, take your painter's tarp and tuck it under the base board. That way, it'll be there when you do the wall too...or vice versa. Also, paint wall, then install base board.

@stephenwilliams944 6 месяцев назад

Preparation and patience are key. We all need to be reminded of these factors from time to time. I thoroughly enjoyed the video and learnt a good tip to use a putty knife for the carpet and the tape. Thank you.

@welshman2081 11 месяцев назад

Hi great ideas if you have a gap under your baseboard, we in the UK call this skirting board, which is placed on top of the floorboard, so tucking under would not work. Regards welshman2081

@nickhickson8738 10 месяцев назад

And having that gap often results in the edge of the carpet becoming dirty as dust can blow in draughty circumstances.

@tktyfour3 8 месяцев назад

Nothing beats a steady hand

@kfiscal01 11 месяцев назад

I just use a thin piece of cardboard, about 2ft long and push it underneath the baseboard. Dont paint to the ends of the cardboard, leave about 5 inches on each end clean and gently pull it in the direction you're painting,keeping it under the base. Usually a couple pieces will do an average room.

@gregflores8959 7 месяцев назад

Likewise, simple, effective cheap.

@manchesterexplorer8519 7 месяцев назад

I use modified Vinyl siding , just cut the edges off to turn it into a 2.5 inch flat strip . Slides under the baseboard with no issues and its reusable.

This tutorial is fantastic! Your method for protecting the carpet and achieving super clean lines on the baseboards is brilliant. The detailed step-by-step process and the practical tips, like using painter's tape and a putty knife, are incredibly helpful. Thanks for making a potentially tricky job so much easier and more manageable

@gregflores8959 7 месяцев назад

@@FixThisHouseThe fact that you need to use tape at all tells me you are not a qualified painter, learn how to ‘cut an edge’, it’s much faster and cheaper.

@paulhughes3961 11 месяцев назад

I'm a retired painting contractor of 36 years. The tapering method is by far the fastest and most efficient method. You don't need to use a drywall knife , just use your fingers to push it down and under the base.

On past jobs I’ve take a roll of plastic, and cut it to about 6” wide. Then unroll it and using a plastic drywall blade/scraper I just tuck it under the baseboard and then get to painting. After it’s dry, just pull the plastic and roll it back up
