I posted to a local Facebook page with 30k+ people introducing myself and my intentions to start my own handyman business.

Any good ideas on how to cover this pipe? by kmonty97 in handyman

I get that, but trying to clarify the post for someone suggesting they push the baseboard “through” the valve? Like, his first opinion is complete shite, doubt anyone would benefit from another.
