A Skirting Board Delivers Great Protection
One of the primary reasons why so many people have skirting boards in their homes is to provide some much-needed protection from daily wear and tear.
The lower ends of our walls suffer a huge amount of impact from regular home activity, including:
❖ People walking past and bumping the walls
❖ Dogs brushing by with muddy feet
❖ Cats scratching or playing with wallpaper
❖ Shoes scraping the surface by mistake
❖ Vacuums catching around the edges
❖ Damage from pushchairs or bikes
A Skirting Board Hides the Gap Between Plaster and Floor
One of the most obvious and yet crucial functions of a skirting board is to seal the gap between plaster and floor. In a home without skirting boards, the walls often come to a blunt end where the plaster finishes, leaving a small gap to prevent moisture from the ground reaching the plasterboard. Although there isn’t much harm caused by this gap in modern-day homes, it can often be an eyesore for people who prefer a sleeker finish.
