Installation of skirting boards

The installation of floor skirting boards is the completion of repair and finishing measures. An insignificant work at first glance plays a decisive role in creating a holistic harmonious interior. The slightest violation in the installation technology can make an imbalance in the overall picture and depreciate the efforts spent on the improvement of the premises..

The floor skirting board performs an important decorative function, but its main purpose is utilitarian: it closes the gaps and joints, masks the wiring elements, and in some cases the sockets are built into skirting boards. That is why the installation should be carried out by experts.

Types of skirting boards

The materials from which these decorative elements are made determine their aesthetic, practical and operational characteristics. On this basis, they are divided into two large groups:

1) Wood or its derivatives:

• array or veneer;
• MDF;
• LDF;
• cork;
• board;
• liquid tree.

2) Plastics:

• PVC and polystyrene;
• polyurethane;
• duropolymer.

The composition of the work

The installation technology of wooden and plastic skirting boards has several differences due to the features of materials. However, preparatory work is undergoing one algorithm, which includes:

• compilation of a sketch of the premises, measurements;;
• the choice of the starting point is the place from which the installation will begin;
• marking;
• preparation of skirting boards.

Wooden profiles

Wood skirting boards should be acclimatized - they must be bought and brought into the room at least two days before installation. The main difficulty in work is that the corners are not used when installing wooden planks, so measurements and pruning should be carried out very carefully. Stages of installation:

• The profile is applied to the wall and screw the screws so that they leave the back side are screwed according to the previously applied marking;
• Tags are made in the wall and holes are drilled, dowels are placed in them;
• Install the bar, twisting the screws to the stop..

Plastic profiles

Most models consist of two removable parts: front and internal. Before installation, the upper bar is removed and put in place after the end of work. Method of fastening: clips, screws, self -tapping screws, dowels or glue. Stages of installation:

• holes are drilled in the wall according to the pre -applied marks (exception - the adhesive method of installation);
• dubel is inserted into the holes;;
• mount the inner part of the baseboard;
• set the front bar;
• glue plugs, corners and other auxiliary details.
