Front room, kitchchen, hallway, two bathrooms, 3 bedrooms after carpet replacement, and rec room on this house, and the entire thing on a previous. Plus helped a friend do their entire basement. But do go on making up reasons to feel better about cutting corners.

Never had to touch up for that. Run a utility knife on the top of the baseboards and take them off with a gentle pry. The LVP floating floor raises it up a 1/4 in or so, replace and run a bead of caulk it a baseboard color match. Done.

Shit renovations. It's so easy to pull the baseboard and replace.

There's quarter round attached to the baseboard? WTF. This was installed totally wrong. It does need the expansion gap, it should be under the baseboards, and no quarter round should be needed. Installing mid summer on a hot day is the best plan, but with a proper expansion gap hidden under the baseboards, should never buckle. I've installed my own LVP planking and it hasn't buckled at all.

Depends where you live. Overall, no. If you live in the PNW, then the land is rising enough to offset a significant portion of sea level rise.

I must have the most honest roofers on earth. Had a leak at the flashing, two roofing companies came out for bids and both told me I had ten years left on the roof and to just get a new flashing strip and some roofing tar, and one even showed me exactly where to overlay the new to stop the intrusion.

If you're pulling drywall paper you didn't cut fully. Of course the walls aren't straight, if you are prying and it's trying to.pull paper you just score it at the top of the baseboard.
