>>I'm about to do some renovations - painting some rooms (maybe including ceiling(s)), and also ripping out the existing wall-to-wall carpeting and putting in hardwood flooring. If you're doing both of these jobs, what's the recommended order:
>>
>>- Paint first, so you don't worry about dripping on the nice new floor, or
>>
>>- Floor first, so you don't bang up your freshly painted walls while installing the flooring, or get sawdust on them?

>Add a new step 1. Remove the quarter round and baseboards and cut the bottoms off the door and closet molding (assuming you've already pulled the carpet) to the height of the new flooring.

And use a piece of the flooring to lay the saw on when you do it.
