Why use a Base Board Heating Cover versus Renovating the Base Board?

What does NeatHeat do for you? Why use a base board heating cover?

Homeowners stress out almost constantly about how they can get all of their home renovation work done with so little free time.

Home renovation involves a lot of different work, and as a full time worker with countless other chores and responsibilities, it gets tough to fit in time to do work that ranges from painting to full room renovations or exterior house work.

The trick is that house owners will balance between what they have the time and skills to deal with versus the funds they have so they can hire someone else to do the work. If you’ve got experience doing something like tiling your bathroom and you’ve got the time to do it, there’s no reason not to carve out a weekend and do the work yourself.

However, if you’ve got to do a major overhaul of your plumbing and have no idea how to deal with that kind of work, it’s best to call a contractor or someone with plumbing experience and save yourself some time.

How do you get your Home Base Board Looking Great?

After all, time and money are very important in home renovation but the most important factor is the quality of the renovation, as you want the work to last as long as possible. When you clean your house, you don’t want to do a sloppy job as you’ll just have to do more cleaning sooner.

When you paint a room, you want the paint job to look good and be done right so you don’t have to worry about it for quite a long time. So what do you do when you can’t get a good looking renovation, even if you invest time and money into the renovation?

This is why base board heating is so frustrating: homeowners have to deal with oxidation of the metal, which is always going to come back, and to clean base board you have to take apart each and every strip of base board, one piece at a time to clean them.

In addition, the metal base board easily gets kicked and bumped into, causing dents and scratches, which are very tough to deal with. The struggle for homeowners is that they can spend the vast majority of a weekend redoing all the base board in their home, only to have to redo it later on.

Why use a Base Board Heating Cover from NeatHeat?

So why use a base board heating cover instead? Homeowners use base board heating covers because they look much better and snap right on over the existing base board, even if parts are damaged or missing.

Covers from NeatHeat are especially ideal because they’re made of a composite polymer so they don’t rust, chip, or dent, and they’re made of a composite polymer so they won’t yellow or fade in color over time. The covers can also be really easily to clean or repaint, as household cleaners or spray paint for polymers can get the job done.

NeatHeat covers consist of longer and shorter pieces that can be extended with a splice plate or cut with a chop saw/hack saw, end caps to hold it all together, and inside corners for base board that follows a wall in a room.
