I've scouring the internet, looking for examples of how to handle my wall situation. This is exactly what I was looking for! I like this much better than other return options. Looks cleaner this way, lining up with edge of wall. If I wasn't taking it to the end of the wall, I'd probably use the other popular return technique.
Ok, question. When does one use a baseboard return? In the example, makes perfect sense - where baseboard ends. Would you use it when a board ends at door trim? When butting up against the beginning of cabinets, etc. :-) I appreciate any insight / thoughts.
I'm in the same boat, I ripped out the bathroom moulding and actually found mold, so replacing the drywall and can't reuse the baseboard. The hallway is next and has 4 doorways, I'm wondering if I should do returns on them or leave it running straight like they are now.
Thank you for your expertise and this is the best of all baseboard return videos because you are the one guy that actually shows the finished product inside the house... on a wall... in action. What's with all these guys showing how to cut it and then never leaving their miter saws and laying it against a wall so viewers can see how it looks??? Anyway, you rock. Thanks!
Thanks, are there other ways to do this return? Wanted to try (tiny wedge shape x baseboard height) with main piece of trim mitered down its edge. Would it work? Thanks
Cut from the top of the molding 45 degrees the way you have bit stop on the flat part of the skirting boart and cut it square. Then take a scrap piece if base board and cut the moulded part off at the depth of your baseboard, put 45 degree angle on the top of it and nail it on. That way it looks like the mould was routered into the end of the baseboard and you have no 45 degree angle to hide and sand in.
This is the way. The way done in the video is fine... It's the easiest way to do it, but the hardest way to make it look flawless afterwards. This way described here I found to be much harder to actually cut, but looked so much better afterwards!
If you plan on wrapping it around a corner, you would cut outside miters. This is Just a return to end the molding if you aren’t going around a corner.

Thanks man I’ll give it a try today
Thank you for this one.
Wow! Thanks for this great idea. I just did this next to the slider door and it looks great.
Just getting ready to put new baseboards in the house and I'm a rookie, so doing research... and this was mind blowing. :-)

Thanks for posting. Turned out really nice. I'm saving this video to refer back. I just subscribed as well.

nice work. looks great
You should try dap spackle and sand it and do a coat of killz spray primer you can't even see the seam.
lil c's that’s exactly the way I do it. This is pre-paint just to show the technique of the return.
@@AnthonyScolaro1 oh cool yeah I learned that working for a custom trim company It looks seamless
I just started doing the same return on my baseboard. The style Definitely fits certain applications
Thanks, are there other ways to do this return? Wanted to try (tiny wedge shape x baseboard height) with main piece of trim mitered down its edge. Would it work? Thanks
Yes what you can do is at your end cut a 45 miter, not the way her did it make a miter cut and do it to a tiny piece as well if that makes sense

Looks way cleaner that way!,

After seeing this my question is why isn't this the norm? It looks so much more professional. Great job Anthony! Again thank you for your insight.
It is the norm lmao homeowners don’t know anything
@@HowellsHandy Thanks for knowing what the norm is all over the world. kudos
Nice way to finish the base trim.
Excelente profesor
Do you also put quarter round down in front of that?
George Pavlik you can if that’s the look you are going for but you don’t have to.
This worked great after about 10 tries lol.
when did you go from a delta to a saw stop? and why?
How about 1.5" riser that go'es on? I'd like to angle it some how.
thanks for posting
What happens when you need to bring it around another corner ?
If you plan on wrapping it around a corner, you would cut outside miters. This is Just a return to end the molding if you aren’t going around a corner.
