Baseboards are one of the types of mouldings that hold visual AND practical advantages.
Base molding, also known as baseboard molding, is a decorative trim that is installed at the bottom of interior walls, where the walls meet the flooring.

It comes in various styles, sizes, and materials, allowing homeowners to choose the type of baseboard molding that best complements their interior design and decor.
