I used your video on removing baseboards and removed them all on my main floor and entryway in preparation for new flooring installation. I didn't break any! I am 65 years old and not DIY skilled at all, and am very proud of myself. :) Thanks so much Shannon! I love your no nonsense, clear directions and tips! Next, I'll remove my carpet, with your help.

This video is great! I plan on removing the carpet from my basement stairs and I would like to simply patch the holes lefts from the staples and paint the stairs. What product do you use to fill the holes? Also, can I just prime and paint this type of stair or do you have to change everything? I am not sure if my idea is ok. Thank you!
@HouseImprovements
@HouseImprovements 4 жыл бұрын
You can patch the stairs with a wood filler and sand ,prime and paint if you like. Many of these types of stairs are not really pretty because they were built to be covered up but usually with some patching, caulking and sanding you can make then look pretty good.

Hey Shannon, my question is if i have squeaking coming from underneath the stairs, before i blindly start to stop squeak by using screws from the top can you share how the stairs might have been built. Is there a joist or something in the middle of the stairs which i can track and screw into to stop squeaking?

Hey Shannon, do you have another affiliate link for the red pry bar?
