SKIRTING BOARDS

Recommended Posts

i've posted this before but have "lost" the replies in an email "clean up" anyone willing to explain what to do again..........SORRY.

hi, we are currently in the process of renovating/decorating our house and have got to replace old skirting boards in an upstairs bedroom. we have taken all the old boards off and now have to attach the new boards............sounds easy enough, apart from the fact that the old floors pitch, roll and fall away all around the room which means there will be big gaps underneath some parts of the skirting. I would like some suggestions on getting the best results.

1. should I just attach the new ones and put up with the gaps (the old ones where like this), not a result I really want.

2. some way try and template the floor and cut sand and plane the new ones......if so any suggestions how to do this would be really gratefully received.

3. attach the new skirting and infill all the gaps.......if so, any suggestions of what would be the best filler.

4 any other suggestions welcome as it's the first time we have done this !!!!!

thanks for any input. mel
