        "text": "Yes, old baseboards, casing, and shoe molding almost always require adjustment, repair, or full replacement. In neglected or foreclosed properties, baseboards often have water staining, pet chew marks, or drywall damage along the bottom perimeter. Furthermore, different flooring thicknesses alter the gap between the subfloor and trim. As an experienced finish carpentry contractor, HH Remodeling coordinates baseboard removal, repairs damaged drywall edges, and installs fresh baseboards and molding after the floor is laid, ensuring clean transitions that make the entire remodel look crisp and complete.",
