League:High diamond
Race:Terran
Apm:over 9000

I have all of the tools necessary, but whenever I see a one base build I tend to underestimate it because I almost always scout it and I feel like im in the driver's seat since i know it's coming.

Read forum guidelines.

Don't be elitist because you have a higher APM than the Protoss/Zerg. You're trading that disadvantage for the advantage of not having to be as reactive, and having a higher skill cap with your units than protoss' or zerg units.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Well, in order to beat worker rushes, you just need to a-move. By the time he arrives to your base, you'll have more workers. You can also run away as more workers come out, and set the rally point to your natural so new workers mineral walk through his potential surround. Setting 1 of your scv's on auto-repair, just 1, can help too. Really no micro necessary though.

If you provided replays, and were a bit more descriptive, it'd help a lot... also, there's no such thing as high diamond, due to how the leagues works. Divisions and points aren't even in the lower leagues, because you can get promoted/demoted based on who you beat (mmr) rather than how many wins you have.

There's nothing to underestimate. Have your expo, gain the HUGE econ advantage through 2x mules and same number of workers on better mineral field saturation. Don't do anything else until you know for sure you can hold, then go back to econ/tech.

Go watch your replay, and see how much stuff you have when the attack hits. Assuming you don't see any micro issues (banelings catching marines, etc.), now you know you'll need a good chunk more to defend properly. Try to estimate how much more, and next time around, see if it works. If not, watch replay, add more stuff, and try again.

Show us a replay?

Planetary fortress and turret ring dude. It's fail-proof.

Yeah post replays. I actually took a brief look at some of the other threads you've opened, because your name sounded familiar, and you don't ever post replays when asking for help -.-
