FAQs

Is the skirting board waterproof?

The board is constructed from moisture-resistant MDF, which helps protect it from humidity and minor splashes. However, it is not fully waterproof and should not be exposed to prolonged direct water contact.

Can I paint this skirting board?

Yes, the board comes with a white primed finish, making it ready for you to apply your desired paint color or gloss.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will typically need a measuring tape, pencil, fine-toothed saw, adhesive, hammer or nail gun, or screws and a drill. Filler and sandpaper are also required for finishing.

How do I clean the skirting board?

Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning materials.

What is the profile of this skirting board?

This is the Regency profile, known for its classic and elegant design.

What are the exact dimensions of the skirting board?

Each board measures 18mm in thickness, 140mm in height, and 4200mm (4.2 meters) in length.

Is this product suitable for bathrooms?

Due to its moisture-resistant properties, it can be used in bathrooms with good ventilation. However, direct water exposure should be avoided, and ensure proper sealing after painting.

Troubleshooting

Board does not fit snugly against the wall or floor.

Ensure the wall surface is flat and the floor is level. Check for any debris causing a gap. Adjust fixings or use a suitable filler for minor imperfections.

Paint finish is uneven after application.

Ensure the primed surface was smooth and dust-free before painting. Apply thin, even coats of paint rather than one thick coat. Sand lightly between coats if necessary.

MDF appears to be swelling.

This indicates excessive moisture. Ensure the area is well-ventilated and that no liquid has been spilled directly onto the boards. Check for leaks behind the wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  3. Cut to Size: Measure and cut boards using a fine-toothed saw for clean, precise cuts.
  4. Install: Attach boards to the wall using appropriate adhesive, nails, or screws, ensuring a snug fit against the wall and floor.
