In this article we would like to show you how to easily and professionally install baseboards made of plastic (also called skirting boards). Learn how to finish your rooms in style and provide a clean transition between the wall and the floor.
Preparation and materials
Before you start installing your baseboards, make sure you have all the materials you need on hand. These include:
- Plastic skirting boards: choose high-quality plastic skirting boards that match your interior style. Visit our Skirting Boards website and discover our diverse selection of skirting boards in various designs.
- Measuring tool: use a tape measure to measure the length of the baseboards and determine the correct dimensions.
- Saw: To bring the baseboards to the right length, you will need a saw. For precise miter cuts, we recommend that you read our instructions under Skirting Boards.
- Mounting adhesive: Use a special mounting adhesive for plastic to securely attach the baseboards to the wall.
- Optional: Color: If you want the baseboards in a color other than the standard color, you can paint over them with a suitable color before or after installation.
Assembly steps
1. measuring and cutting:
Carefully measure the length of the wall sections to be covered and mark the corresponding dimensions on the baseboards. Use a saw to cut the baseboards to the correct length. For precise miter cuts, follow our instructions under Skirting Boards.
2. gluing the baseboards:
Apply the special mounting adhesive to the back of the baseboards. Spread the adhesive evenly to ensure secure adhesion to the wall. Press the baseboards firmly against the wall, making sure they sit straight and flush. If necessary, use a spirit level to check the alignment.
3. paint over (optional):
If you want the baseboards in a different color, you can paint over them with a suitable color before or after installation. Follow the paint manufacturer’s instructions and allow the paint to dry completely before touching or cleaning the baseboards.
