How to correctly install a wooden skirting board

A wooden skirting board is installed along the wall to protect the floor from all kinds of damage. From the aesthetic side, the skirting board will fold for the optical smoothing of the transition from the wall to the floor. Before the installation of the skirting board, it is necessary to get rid of the old. In order to separate the old baseboard from the wall, use the chisel. An important stage in the mounting of the skirting board is its fitting to the size of the walls. This is carried out by cutting by. For each corner, the baseboard is cut in its own. Facing the corner compound, it is required to mark the segment of the plastic piece of skirting boat of the desired length and cut it off at the required angle.

If the terrace board is attached with nails, the baseboard is trying on the walls. Cut the edge of the baseboard under 45 degrees. Next, we adjust both sizes until they are perfectly in contact. Then, the junction of the two skirting boards must be treated with carpentry glue, then the second skirting board is nailed. If a gap is formed at the junction, then it must be covered with putty, which is used for wooden surfaces. Then the applied putty is cleaned and covered with paint. Internal angles are created in a different way. A piece of plastic skirting boards is measured along the length of one of the walls, starting from the corner. If necessary, it is lengthened by attaching to the baseboard to measure the required length. Then it is processed with putty and grinded with sandpaper. Having substituted a plank to the area of ​​the alleged joint, a note is marked on another board. The marked circuit must be carefully trimmed. The second part is applied to the corresponding section of the wall and is attached to the first. Having measured the required length, it should be attached to the wall. The first board can be pulled out and attach it to another skirting board in the same way. Next, we process with putty, and then this section is cleaned and painted.
