Wow. I'm glad you were to the point. Most people give a 30 minute intro and it drags on. Thank you
People talking about their dogs eating their baseboards while I'm here dealing with a munchin bunny and a house for sale D:
Bunnies are the worst. I'm here because of two of them. :(
Allison Walker i dont know how to get them to stop 😩😩
Me too!! Naughty buns!
Me too! Usually I put a grid over the baseboards, but forgot today. A lot of chewing has been done.
I just had this happen to me... trying to find the right color of white to match the base board.
Yaaas bro thank you, a picture fell and chipped our floorboard and my husband lost his mind...your video settled his soul
Dude I totally love you for this!! My dog literally chewed almost every baseboard in my apartment. Hellooooo security deposit!! :D
Came here for the exact same reason lol! Thinking I'm going to get buy a home next year and need to fix up some repairs in the apartment so I get my security deposit back too! Hope its worked out for you!
ashleyquu same here do u know how long u have to wait for u put another coat on it ?
ashleyquu my dog did too, oh my god
ashleyquu did it work !? My dog did this at the house and it’s the corner of two LONG ONES I don’t want to replace it lol
SAME!!! New puppy chewed about half the baseboards in my house!
This information was exactly what i needed! I was thinking i had to sand/file away the old paint and wood to get the filler material to stick. After 15 years in my new construction home, some of my baseboards have some pretty good dings and gouges in them. This tip should help me repair all of the damaged bits, without replacing or hiring a handiman. Thank you so much!
This is great. I was trying to do the repair in one coat. Very difficult and frustrating. This makes a lot more sense. And you got right to the point. I appreciate that too. Will definitely try, thank you!
WOW! Thank you! After years of staring at a gash on the baseboard at the bottom of my stair landing I can finally fix it and forget it. The situation that caused it was stressful and upsetting. Every time I see it am reminded of the situation. Now I can fix it and forget the situation ever happened!
Man, an accident happened 2 days ago in my new house and one baseboard was damaged and by watching your video I was able to fix it and it looks like new. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 happy thanksgiving!!!
I was so happy to find your video. I easily repaired my baseboard using your technique. Thank you so much!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I just moved into an older house with years of damage and a previous DOG so I've been very frustrated with how it looked. Now I can just make this a weekend project one room at a time and my OCD will not go into overdrive!!
You just saved me my security deposit!! God bless you :)
Mawiyah Johnson Me too I was freaking out..
Lmao mine too
same, i had a rabbit as a pet for my kids and needless to say he did some damage . glad you got your deposit back
THANK YOU! My puppy ate a little bit of the baseboard at my apartment! This is perfect!
Wonderful technique, thank you for sharing. Really useful video!
Awesome video. This will help me repair my moulding. Thanks for the demo!
Omg thank for this simple easy to do video, i thouth i was going to have to pay my apartment complex alot of money fo the wood my dog chewed up a little , this was great !!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Excellent video. I have 3 pieces to fix. All of them would be tough to replace. I am now looking forward to fixing. Thanks
Thank you so much. I came across your video looking for help with a chipped baseboard. This helped so much!! May need all your expertise in fixing up my house
Had the exact damage as you showed. Followed your directions. $4.98 for a small tub of all purpose joint compound. Will probably never use it again but who cares. Looks as good as new. Thanks.
This was fantastic, thank you. I'm going to try and use this method for fixing out door frame from cat scratches.
Thanks! That is a great tip for baseboard repairs.
this looks so easy to do . been looking for something as easy as this . i live in a apartment and at the time we had a bunny my daughter wanted so bad and without really doing any research about having a bunny we got him and next thing you know he started chewing on the baseboards and needless to say i have a job to do before i move out.looks simple enough .. thank you , wish me luck😀
For me the key learning point that I did not realize was to drag the knife left or right not straight up an down . Thank you so much .
OMG you just saved me a whole lot of time and $$$.
Thanks so much!
Keeping it in easy to understand instructions. Thank you.
We where worried how to patch up these nicks around our Airbnb, and this really helps. Thank you
Great technique! This is really helpful.
Perfect answer and great video. Thank you.
Great tip & nice job on the repair
This was excellent. Thank you!
Terrific video! BIG like!!
Very much to the point, very informative and very useful.
Thanks from Australia
Thanks for the video. I like the technique. I have peeling paint on the molding of a 6 panel door and need a way to smooth the surface between paint and bare wood under it.
Always wondered if this could be done THX
Hi Adam! I think I'm going to try to do this repair work thanks to your vid!
Awee thank u so much. We bought this house with so many freaking damaged baseboards and other areas. I was gonna use Bondo but this may be better
Great quick fix.
Excellent video. Just what I needed to see.
Your the man!! You confirmed what i was thinking, thank you!!!!!
Awesome video, quick and to the point.
Great video!! Life saver for puppy chewed base boards...
Thank you for this video! I fixed a corner baseboard that my dog had chewed for under 8 bucks! Wife Goals!
Great video simple and to the point
Great idea, never thought of that technique....thx
Thank you! This was so helpful
Thank you so much man. I never could have done this without you.
That's amazing. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for teaching me how to fix the baseboard.
+C_ Farther Glad to help!
Can't see the damage at all, nice repair, nice job.
This is so helpful omg thank you!! I have young chinchillas and one of them loves to chew on the baseboards, now I can finally fix them properly!
wolfgirl7458 my hamster chewed my baseboards😂
Yo this is a great video, I am going to try this on a counter baseboard in the kitchen
I'm in the process of fixing several areas of damage in my daughter's room before painting. I'm using Elmer's wood filler because I don't want it to shrink or ding. The area I just fixed is exactly like your demo. I taped under and over the area and filled it in over three days and sanded it round to match. The process is the same but I wonder about the longevity of joint compound.
Too bad your concerns where not mentioned though this guy sure wants our money. lol
What an ingenious idea.
What do you do for a natural wood board that's just stained, not painted?
Nice video , thank your for the tutorial .. I have a question about door frame edges .. when the movers moved furniture to the house the edges of the main door frame were scratched and dented . You know it's a soft 90 degree wood edge that is dented . How would you fix that ? The door is ok it's the outside wood frame needs fixing .
Yes this is going to help me. Thanks.
Very useful, thanks
Another guy with some pet damage to fix before moving out, this is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!
How long does one coat take to dry?
Can you please tell me if you did this and if it worked the way you wanted it to
Very helpful!
Thanks!!
life saver, thank you
Awesome vid thank you!
Wow amazing! Thank you so much!!
Awesome! Thanks
Thank you so much for this.. great video thank you.
Great! Short and sweet!
can i use plastic filler?
This is the first DIY video I have seen where reality is as easy as the video. Just put the first coat on, didn't realize I could use joint compound. I had been staring at the baseboards thinking I should use wood filler or resin 😂.
Good thing is I already had plenty of joint compound in the garage
Hard Water Putty works too. It's a bit stronger than joint compound and can be sanded also. Only problem is it cures faster, and may require faster work for a big job.
Gracias!!!
Great tip. Can you use white wood filler call Spackle instead of drywall compound?
Do we have to wait the full 24 hours before each coat??
This saved my freaking butt. Thank you SO much’
THANK YOU!!!
Thank you.
Just did this procedure. Worked like a charm on a busted baseboard with a huge chip(about the size of a thumb). Be patient while the joint compound dries. It will dry on top layer but still be pliable underneath. It needs to dry fully before applying another layer or sanding.
I'm wondering if you have ever used it on baseboard that got ruined by pet urine because it looks very warped and swollen.
Unfortunately when removing one of four baseboards it ended cracking on top, but thanks to you video im now able to repair instead of replacing it...👍👍👍😁
Nice video. Helpful
Thank you soooooo much!💖💛💖💖
Thanks lot
The walls in my room don’t have a primer on them so when I removed a poster it ripped a big hole in my wall can I use this method as well for that.
Thanks very much for the great demo. You have made this look very do-able! Tremendously helpful and I’m hoping that I don’t have to replace my baseboards! Cheers!
Well done
Very helpful video. What grit sandpaper did you use? Thanks.
Perfect!
This is super nice! How do you find the right paint color?
Holy cow, is this in a townhouse community in South Jordan? By a holiday oil? We live there and it literally looks like your in our house haha. Great and simple tutorial 👍
Yes mate love it told me what I need to know
You are a life saver!!! My bunnies chewed mines 😅😅
Can’t believe this. Wood putty is the way to go for this.
very helpfull ty
can you use this for a damaged door frame?
Very helpful 👌 idea
Nice thanks bro
Adam I have MDF baseboards. Needs some touchup but don't want to paint all the baseboards. So my question is what white paint do you use so I can blend it in as not to have to paint everything. Just want to blend it in after patching.
Awsome thanks
Thank you for this video. How long does it take each coat to dry before you reapply?
+Jamie Corley That depends on the temperature and humidity. Usually several hours in a typical setting. It also depends on how big the patch is. You can speed it up with a hair dryer.
Thanks.
Do you have any suggestions on how to repair a door casing that has been cut to high?
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow excellent
Thank you so much! Does anyone know how long I should wait for the coat to dry before adding another coat? Is 30 min enough?
Can you please tell me how long you wait inbeetween each find
If i have the chipped pieces are they worth using or no? Also how long do i need to wait for joint compound before adding next coat?
