What is skirting board installation, and why is it important?

Skirting board installation involves fitting decorative boards at the base of interior walls where they meet the floor. These boards protect walls from damage, conceal uneven finishes, and enhance the room's overall appearance.

How much does skirting board installation cost in Ireland?

The cost of skirting board installation in Ireland typically ranges from €8 to €15 per linear metre, depending on the material, style, and size of the boards. Labour costs may vary based on your location, with Dublin and other urban areas tending to be more expensive.

What materials are commonly used for skirting boards?

Skirting boards can be made from various materials, including: MDF: Affordable and durable, great for painting. Wood (e.g., pine, oak): Offers a natural look, suitable for staining or varnishing. PVC/Plastic: Water-resistant, ideal for areas prone to moisture.

Do I need a professional for skirting board installation?

While it is possible to do it yourself, professional installation ensures precision, a clean finish, and proper fitting, particularly in older homes with uneven surfaces. Professionals also have the tools and expertise to handle tricky corners and ensure a seamless look.

How long does it take to install skirting boards?

The installation process usually takes 1-2 days for an average-sized home, depending on the number of rooms and the complexity of the project.

Can skirting boards be replaced without damaging the walls?

Yes, careful removal and replacement of skirting boards should not damage your walls. Professional tradespeople use specialised tools to minimise crack or dent risks during the removal process.

Are there regulations around skirting board installation in Ireland?

While there are no specific laws for skirting boards, it’s essential to adhere to building safety standards and address any potential issues (e.g., accommodating electrical cables or heating pipes behind the boards).

Do skirting boards require maintenance?

Skirting boards are low maintenance but may need occasional cleaning and touch-ups: Wooden boards: Clean with a damp cloth and consider varnishing or painting if they show wear. Painted boards: Touch up scratches or marks with matching paint. PVC boards: Wipe down with a mild cleaning solution to maintain their appearance.

Can I add skirting board covers instead of replacing them?

Yes, if your existing skirting boards are damaged or outdated, you can fit skirting board covers over them. Covers are a cost-effective way to upgrade your interior without full removal.
