How do you clean skirting boards?

To clean your skirting boards and leave them looking good as new, start by using a brush or cloth to remove any dust. Next, wipe the skirting boards using a damp cloth and warm, soapy water. More stubborn stains may require the use of a neutral cleaning solution such as bicarbonate of soda and vinegar. For a streak-free finish, use a microfibre cloth to dry your skirting boards once clean.

How do you gloss skirting boards?

When glossing skirting boards, it’s important to first prepare the surface by cleaning your boards and carefully sanding them. Use masking tape to cover the edges of your wall and floor before applying a suitable undercoat or primer. Once the primer is dry, use a paint brush to apply your gloss, working across the boards from top to bottom for a smooth, consistent finish. 

How do you remove skirting boards?

To remove your skirting boards, all you need to do is score the sealant line using a utility knife, gently loosen the skirting board using a chisel between the board and the wall, and carefully pry it off. Remember to be extra gentle if you’d like to reuse your boards. For any fastenings, you can use pliers to remove them, and for adhesive, it can often be wiped off with ease.
