Johnsonite Wall Base in Canada
Johnsonite wall base is the commercial standard for finishing the joint where a floor meets the wall. We stock the full Johnsonite catalogue as a special order line: the moulded Millwork Wall Finishing System, which reproduces the profile and shadow lines of milled wood trim without painting or site finishing, and BaseWorks thermoset and thermoplastic rubber base, which bends around curves and columns and resists scuffing, fading and cracking.
Between the two ranges you can match almost any specification: heights from 2-1/2" to 6", toe and toeless profiles, quarter round and shoe moulding, corner guards, and profiles including Monument, Mandalay, Reveal, Recessed, Exhibit, Ledge and Stance. Millwork pieces are supplied in 8' lengths, boxed by the pack; BaseWorks is supplied in 100' and 120' coils. Everything is installed with wall base adhesive over primed drywall, plaster, concrete or masonry.
Most of the range is FloorScore certified and phthalate-free, with Class 1 flammability ratings, which is why it is specified so often for schools, healthcare, offices and retail fit-outs. It works just as well in residential basements, laundry rooms and mudrooms where a painted wood baseboard would not last.
Every item on this page is a special order. We bring it in from the manufacturer for your project, so contact us to confirm the current lead time before you schedule an installation. Prices shown are per box or per roll.
Choosing between Millwork and BaseWorks
- Millwork Wall Finishing System — moulded profiles with an architectural, milled-wood look. Best where the base is a visible design element.
- BaseWorks rubber base — flexible coil stock in a simple profile. Best for long runs, curved walls, columns and heavy-traffic commercial corridors.
- Toe vs toeless — a toe base covers the gap at a hard floor; a toeless (straight) base suits carpet and tight reveals.
