The same can also be said for areas that are prone to flooding. You would see the boards swell and distort under these conditions. The material we now use in place of our MDF is officially known as High Density MDF - hence the reason we refer to it as HDF. All of our MDF is now High Density MDF!
HDF is stronger and harder than MDF. Compared to natural wood, High Density MDF doesn't swell at all making surface decoration much easier. HDF skirting boards are perfect in areas where moisture is present (bathrooms etc.) and where flooring that requires frequent mopping is installed. Simple slot together system - Simply glue the external and internal corner pieces into place for an easy, no hassle installation. One less DIY chore to worry about As a rule stand, high skirting boards (8 cm and higher) are used for interiors above 260 cm. When looking for a skirting boards for typical family home or attic it worth considering 6-8 cm skirtings. Note: if you do need the skirting boards to be primed / undercoated all over, this isn't a problem. We can do this for you when requested and the priming/undercoating cost is increased due to the extra paint needed. Summary
Details:
The biggest downside to using plastic skirting boards, and this applies across any type of material really – it looks cheap compared with wood which has a natural appearance that improves over time when oiled or varnished Whether you’re a housebuilder with a major project on the table, a housing association managing a number of properties or a homeowner redecorating a room or two, Roomline PVC-U skirting boards and architraves are the ultimate hassle-free solution. So if you want to drastically cut installation times and eliminate the bother of maintenance, look no further! Fitted in half the time With the easy-fit Roomline system, lengths of skirting board are simply slotted together – and pre-moulded corner pieces mean there’s no need for mitring. Architraves are supplied in single door kits, with pre-moulded corner pieces to neaten up any joints. Both architraves and skirting boards are glued in place using readily available adhesives, with no need for nails or screws. By saving all the time you’d spend installing and painting traditional timber, you’ll get the job done up to 50% faster.
A key point to make is that PVC skirting boards are not suitable for use in any high-rise buildings because they do have a certain degree of flammability and the materials used can release harmful fumes. Ease Of Installation When we add a design to the board, we break the seal of the MDF - this is where the finishing helps with added protection against moisture. In a normal everyday bathroom, there will be moisture in the air. Our MDF skirting boards can easily cope with this due to their moisture resistant properties. Moisture Resistant Doesn't Mean Waterproof It is more and more popular solution to achieve unified vertical surfaces of interior. This creates harmonized structure of walls. But it is crucial to pay attention to colours as each producer may have slightly different shade so even something as simple as white skirting can vary from one to another. Currently the most popular solution is to determine colours by the RAL palette. So a white skirtings in this system would be depicted by code RAL 9003. So when comparing shapes, width, length between different producers there is greater chance of choosing the same colour when RAL code is given. Since last year there are more designs of interiors using different shades of grey for doors and matching them with skirtings – the two most popular are RAL 7035 and RAL 7042. Secondly, hight and material of skirting board The rule that is safe to follow stands that skirting boards should be matched with the floor. Especially when it comes to performance features and usability factors. When you decide to use the skirting from the offer of the floor producer, you gain certainty that skirting will match floor in terms of a colour. Deciding on the company with great experience in skirting production, usually there is more colours to choose from and product has better technical parameters.We are observing increasing popularity of blending skirting into the wall, when colour of the skirting is coherent with colour of the wall. The other solution is to create highly contrasting effect by combining different colours of skirting and wall making the skirting “pop”. It is very pleasing combination when put together white skirting with dark wall, but it is also possible to reverse the colours and attach dark or anthracite skirting to white wall. Both of those solutions have modern look in them but require carefulness while designing and experience in installing. Matching skirting to the door frame, door panels or cabinets fronts. Grey skirting idealy suits to natural oak shades Priming and painting MR MDF skirting boards further enhances the moisture resisting properties of the material by creating a seal on the 3 exposed sides. How easy to install? As long as you follow the manufacturer’s instructions and have a basic understanding of DIY mechanics, PVC skirting board can be installed relatively easily. It will require some time compared with timber or other materials but this should not present too much difficulty even for inexperienced householders who may only undertake occasional home improvements themselves. There are not too many tools required, All you need to do is know how to apply adhesive as per the detail in the instructions and you should be good to go.
An important point is that they are not as strong or durable as compared timber, so if you’re looking for something which will withstand heavy wear-and wood that typically holds up well over time – PVC may be worth considering but not as the first choice. Pros And Cons Of PVC Plastic Skirting Pros: Traditional plastic skirting boards are cheap, waterproof, but often the visible mounting channel or protruding corners are visually disturbing.
