        "text": "Before your carpentry crew arrives, clear all furniture, storage bins, and clutter at least three to four feet away from all walls. If you are replacing old baseboards yourself to save on labor, remove the pieces carefully with a pry bar and pull all leftover finishing nails from the drywall. Ensure any ongoing basement moisture repairs or drywall patching are fully addressed beforehand. A prepared, unobstructed workspace allows finish carpenters to establish accurate sight lines, measure long continuous runs, and complete miter cuts efficiently.",
