This National Skirting White Lambs Tongue MDF Skirting Board is ideal for homeowners looking to add a classic yet modern touch to their interior design. Its primary benefit is the elegant Lambs Tongue profile combined with a moisture-resistant MDF construction for durability.

You can use most types of interior paint, including water-based emulsions, acrylics, or oil-based gloss paints. Ensure the surface is clean and properly primed for best adhesion and finish.
While the MDF is moisture-resistant, it is not waterproof. For bathrooms with high humidity, it is recommended to apply a robust moisture-resistant sealant or primer to all surfaces and edges, and ensure good ventilation.
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dust and light marks. For more stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used on the cloth, followed by a clean damp cloth rinse. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads.
The skirting board is 18mm thick, 170mm high, and 3040mm long.
Yes, it is recommended to lightly sand the surface after installation and filling any imperfections to create a smooth finish for painting.
Yes, you can join pieces. For the neatest finish, use a mitre joint at a 45-degree angle and secure with wood adhesive. Ensure the joint is well-supported while the adhesive cures.
The Lambs Tongue profile offers a decorative edge that blends a classic curved element with a straight face, providing an elegant aesthetic that complements various interior design styles.
Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Use a high-quality wood adhesive and consider using temporary supports or nails while the adhesive cures.
Ensure the board was properly sanded before painting. Apply thin, even coats of paint and allow sufficient drying time between them. Check for any surface imperfections that may need filling and re-sanding.
Use a sharp, fine-toothed saw, preferably a mitre saw or jigsaw with a fine blade. Support the board firmly while cutting and consider using masking tape along the cut line to minimize tear-out.
While moisture-resistant, prolonged exposure to high humidity can still affect MDF. Ensure the room is adequately ventilated and consider applying a moisture-resistant sealant to all edges and surfaces, especially if exposed to occasional dampness.
