The chamfered skirting board is a floor decoration material with a simple appearance. It does not have the complex appearance of the traditional skirting board (lamb tongue skirting board). The internal cavity design makes it lighter. It is undoubtedly a simple choice, which aligns with our modern minimalist life concept.
The design of chamfered skirting boards caters to the mainstream of the times. Their simple appearance and calm texture are ideal for floor decoration in modern homes and commercial spaces. Its features include:
Its appearance is an inverted triangle, and the narrow space at the top is not easy to accumulate dust or debris, which is convenient for later cleaning and maintenance.
Its interior adopts a hollow design, which is light and easy to cut and install.
The back space is flat and fits the wall well, so dust or debris is not easy to fall into the gap. In addition, some chamfered skirting boards have space reserved for storing wires and cables on the back, which improves the utilization efficiency of indoor space.
As a new and environmentally friendly floor decoration material, chamfered skirting board has many advantages, including:
It is a flooring material made of composite materials with excellent waterproof and moisture-proof properties. It is suitable for almost any indoor space, including bathrooms and kitchens.
PVC chamfered skirting board materials are not easy to breed insects and do not require the frequent regular maintenance like solid wood skirting boards.
Its material is not easy to breed mold on and can maintain a clean and tidy appearance for a long time.
Its surface is smooth and flat, and it is not easy to absorb dust or stains. Cleaning can be easily completed by simply wiping the surface with a damp cloth.

In addition, corners (such as internal and external corners) need to be beveled at 45 degrees, and can be spliced into seamless finishes after cutting.
When choosing skirting for your home, you may want to consider the following factors to make the most reasonable choice.
The material of the skirting will directly affect its durability and maintenance cost.
Medium-density fiberboard and solid wood skirtings usually require more maintenance, otherwise, they are prone to insect infestation or mold in humid environments.
PVC or metal skirtings are highly waterproof and more durable. PVC skirtings are mainly used in commercial spaces, while metal skirtings have a delicate metallic texture and are suitable for high-end modern home environments.
Tile or marble skirtings are traditional decorative choices. They are strong and durable and are often used with marble floors.
The color matching of skirting boards usually follows three principles.
First, the skirting board is the same color as the floor, which makes the floor visually extended and the space more open.
Second, the skirting board is the same color as the wall, so that the wall is not visually abrupt.
Third, the skirting board is the same color as the door frame to obtain a better sense of line continuity. Usually, the thickness of the skirting board is consistent with the thickness of the door frame.
The size of the skirting board is influenced by the size of the room as well as the style.
Floors with higher ceilings usually choose taller skirting boards, while smaller rooms usually choose lower skirting boards to ensure that they are not visually obtrusive.
There are usually two installation methods for skirting boards: gluing or fixing with nails.
The gluing installation is simple and quick, suitable for DIY decoration projects. The nailing method is easier to achieve a stable effect.
The price of skirting boards is affected by the material they are made of.
PVC and MDF skirting boards are ideal for projects with a limited budget. Solid wood or metal skirting boards are usually used in high-end interior decoration and are more expensive.
