Also, are there different size quarter round? Theyre are almost identical. They can be used interchangeably in some cases, but they have their own specific uses as well.

Likewise, people ask, how thick is a baseboard?
Most baseboards are 1/2 to 1 inch thick and 3 to 8 inches tall. Gauge baseboard size by its relationship to crown and casing. Baseboard is typically taller than casing is wide, and about as tall as the crown. The taller the crown, the taller the baseboard should be to maintain visual balance.
Is quarter round needed?
If you dont leave a vertical gap your wood can end up getting all warped as it expands and the pieces press up against each other. If you leave the base molding in place and install new flooring, you must leave a gap in front of your existing base molding. That space now needs to be covered by quarter round molding.
