Product Information

Full details

The National Skirting Chamfered Skirting Board is an ideal solution for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to achieve a clean, professional finish in both modern and traditional interiors. Its primary benefit is the pre-primed, versatile surface that allows for quick customization with your choice of paint or gloss, significantly reducing installation time. However, users should note that as a timber product, it requires careful handling during transit and installation to avoid potential surface scuffs or edge damage.

FAQs

Does this board come with paint already applied?

It comes pre-primed, which acts as a base layer. You will need to apply your own final coat of paint or gloss.

What is the length of each piece?

Each individual length is 3040mm long.

Can I use this in a bathroom?

While durable, it is best suited for dry living areas. If used in a bathroom, ensure all cut edges are sealed to prevent moisture ingress.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a saw (miter saw recommended), wood glue or high-strength adhesive, a tape measure, and a hammer/nail gun.

Can I sand the primer before painting?

Yes, a light sand with fine-grit sandpaper is recommended to achieve the smoothest finish before applying your final paint color.

Troubleshooting

Board is slightly warped

Use adhesive combined with mechanical fixings to pull the board flush against the wall.

Paint finish looks uneven after first coat

Ensure the surface is lightly sanded with fine-grit paper before applying a second top coat.

Difficulty fitting corners

Use a miter block or powered miter saw to ensure precise 45-degree angle cuts for a seamless join.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ready to paint immediately out of the package
  • Durable 18mm thickness provides long-lasting structural integrity
  • Classic chamfered profile suits diverse room styles
  • Generous 3040mm length minimizes the number of joins required

Cons

  • Requires top-coat painting to achieve the final desired finish
  • Heavy material requires proper support during transport
  • Potential for minor surface imperfections that may need light sanding before painting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your walls are clean and dry. Measure your room perimeter carefully and cut the boards at 45-degree angles for clean corner joins. You can secure the boards using high-strength adhesive, pins, or a combination of both for extra stability. When caring for your skirting, wipe away dust with a dry microfiber cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the paint finish. Always store boards flat in a dry environment prior to installation to prevent warping.
