Reply To: Large gap from new flooring to base moulding

Thank you Joe for the prompt reply. However, I am not using 3/4″ quarter round. I am using a PVC type base shoe made by Trimfinity that is 7/16 x 3/4. Seems if I tried nailing this without anything behind it that it would tend to roll out some and not be tight at the top.

Also, do you ever caulk under/behind the shoe to make the installation more waterproof?

Thanks for your help,

Steve
