I noticed some commentators have stated shoe molding is not needed "if the hardwood has been installed properly". Some may misread this and think shoe mold is used only when the flooring has not been installed properly. Shoe molding is needed in situations when the subfloor/slab is uneven. The undulations in the floor's surface will cause gaps to appear between the baseboard and the flooring material. Shoe molding conforms to the floor's surface and hides those gaps. Some of our customers prefer the look of shoe molding, as it complements tall baseboards.
