Caulking is one of those things when working on a house project that might seem unnecessary or even a little daunting to do. It can get messy really quickly and when you are at the end of a project, you kind of just want to be done and don't really want one more thing to do. Caulking can totally change up a space though and give it a finished look whether it's baseboards, trim, moulding, staircase, shiplap, board and batten, etc. It's also great on bathroom projects and outdoor projects. I'm going to show you how to caulk baseboards and this is the easiest way I have found to do it. With just a little practice, you'll be a pro in no time!
Supplies Needed:
Caulk - This is the kind I use the most. I prefer white over clear because it's easier to see what you are doing. You need to make sure that it is paintable.
Spray Bottle
Old Rags - You'll need to get them wet
Scissors To Cut The Tip Off Tube Of Caulk
Start by prepping your area, make sure to wipe everything down so there is no dirt or dust. Then you are going to load your tube of caulk into the caulking gun and tighten it until it's locked in.
Once the tube is loaded, you can cut the tip off the tube - you will want to cut as small of a hole as possible and make sure to cut it at an angle. The bigger the hole, the more caulk will come out which can result in a big mess! You can always cut the hole a little bigger if you need more, but it's best to start out small.
When your tube is ready to go, you simply push down the handle and run the tip along the edge of the baseboard where the baseboard meets the wall. You can do as little or as much at one time that you'd like. I usually do about 10-15 inches before I stop and do the next step.
Grab your spray bottle and squirt the line of caulk that you just laid down and then run your finger over the line to remove any excess. Take your wet rag and run the rag over the line to smooth it out and to dry up any water. Wipe your finger on a different wet rag and move onto caulking the next line. I like to keep one rag to wipe my finger and one rag to smooth and wipe the area I'm working on.
You can start the next line right where you left off and once you follow the steps above it will all blend in seamlessly.
These baseboards that I'm working on will need a coat of paint after I finish caulking, but depending on your project this could be your very last step and you could be done. Check out the before and after below - such big difference!
I've had quite a few people reach out and ask me about caulking so hopefully this tutorial helps! Shoot me an email or DM if you have any questions. For more links of our favorite products that we love, check out our Amazon page.

A few weeks ago, I received an email that claimed I had won a staggering $2 million Bitcoin giveaway sponsored by Binance. At first glance, the message appeared legitimate. It featured official logos, polished wording, and a link that redirected me to what seemed to be Binance’s real website. Everything looked perfect: the login page was professional, there was a security padlock indicating a secure connection, and even the URL was almost identical to the actual Binance site.Caught up in the excitement of what I thought was a lucky break, I entered my credentials without a second thought. When prompted, I also provided my recovery phrase to “verify eligibility.” It was a decision I would soon regret. Within minutes, I received a sinking feeling in my stomach as I realized that my entire cryptocurrency portfolio had been wiped out. It wasn’t just my Bitcoin (BTC) that was gone; the scammers had drained everything, including my Dogecoin (DOGE), Cardano (ADA), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH).The realization hit me hard, and I felt utterly sick. I had always prided myself on being cautious and knowledgeable about online scams, but the fake site was so convincing that I had let my guard down. After hours of panicking and feeling helpless, I knew I had to take action. I began searching for help and stumbled upon PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY, a team that specializes in crypto scam investigations to recover my lost assets, I reached out to them, sharing my experience and the details of the scam. The team was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable, guiding me through the recovery process step by step. They explained how they could trace the transactions and work to recover my stolen funds. With their expertise, I felt a glimmer of hope.After two days of diligent work, I was ecstatic to learn that I had recovered 90% of my cryptocurrency. The relief was overwhelming, and I couldn’t believe that I had managed to reclaim what I thought was lost forever. I now understand that even the most convincing emails can be traps, and I will always double-check before taking any action in the future.

Just a few months ago, I found myself in the middle of a nightmare. I had invested $200,000 into what I thought was a promising cryptocurrency platform. The website was polished, the support team seemed responsive, and everything looked legitimate until one day, everything vanished. The site went offline, my wallet was emptied, and no one was responding. I was crushed. That was my life savings. Desperate and ashamed, I started researching ways to recover stolen crypto. That’s when I stumbled across Malice Cyber Recovery. At first, I was skeptical. I had already been scammed once how could I trust anyone again? But something about their professionalism stood out. They didn’t make wild promises. Instead, they offered a clear, step by step process to investigate and trace the stolen funds. I decided to take a leap of faith. Their team moved fast. Using blockchain tracking tools, cyber forensic analysis, and legal collaboration, they managed to trace the movement of my stolen crypto across multiple wallets. Within weeks, they had identified the perpetrators and worked with the proper channels to freeze the assets. To my shock and relief, I recovered nearly the full amount $200,000 that I had written off as gone forever. Thanks to Malice Cyber Recovery, I not only got my money back I got my life back. I can’t recommend them enough
