😂😂😂😂 never seen skirting installed like that in my life 😂😂😂😂 half the wallpaper backing was still left on the walls. Someone needs to tell the old boy to hang the boots up
I appreciate your video more than you can imagine. Thank you so much. I just Moved into the property where upon stripping 5 layers of wallpapers this kind of holes was what I found. I feel less frightened of it now and more confident to tackle the job in hand. ❤
Thank you so much for your brilliant advice. I stripped my skirting board much to the disapproval of my partner and family....too fussy etc. So in doing so i hacked a big gap behind the skirting much like your skirting in your video. I didnt like plastering job that ww had done and i attempted to chip away the lumps of plastering but ended up with huge rugged hole. My partner said the wall needs to be replastered and its just been left for over a year. Any way thanks a million to you! I can now silence my critics and follow your advice. Im going to surprise everyone and try to do it whilst everyone goes away for a break! I will be tuning in for more of your advice and tips....really inspiring and liberating! You have a fabulous way of explaining clear and you make things sound straightforward and uncomplicated.
Liked and subscribed. I’ve got a ton of diy to do in a new house so I think I’m going to be watching these videos a lot 😅 project seems less daunting now I’ve seen the video - thanks a lot 😁
I was sort of looking forward to this video but once I saw the mess of the skirting board I thought other wise. I sort of forgave it when I first saw modern board butted up to old board, which can always be a bit tricky, but when I saw the complete lash of the rest of the skirting board I had enough by then. Further more for the amount of filling being undertaken really it would have been much better and neater to have plaster filled the huge gaps behind the skirting before fitting the skirting board.
Thanks for sharing your video and knowledge. I would just add one note: when you are painting between two colours, the lines must be more smooth, more straight and less imperfection.
@Glen T . Caulk is flexible and can be smoothed with finger, not sanded . It is used to fill gaps down the edges of door frames tops of skirting boards internal mitres on skirting boards, pollifiller is a brand off filler that makes fillers for holes that can be sanded, they also make caulk aswell. hope this helps.
A lot of skirting board with radiators above have pipe work above the skirting, maybe you can paint the pipes the same as the wall colour if they are above the skirting board. maybe you could box the plpe work in. I would need to see the situation to be honest, hope these suggestions give you an idea.
I have gaps the same as your video but not as deep.. I'm wondering if the foam comes out fast.. I don't want it to go everywhere.. I just need a small amount? I probably sound ridiculous but I have NO CLUE how to do anything DIY & have no choice but to do it myself! Any advice would be much appreciated.
Is it safe to use expandable foam near a socket? It's flamamable and insulates. So if the wires get hot, it could cause a fire couldnt it? Because the heat can't escape.
After researching it, i make you right, you definitely dont want to over do it and cover the wire so its double insulated. So make sure the cable is in a conguate. This is why i love the comment section, you just always keep learning.
Whoever fitted that skirting done a right bodge job!
It was the clients dad lol, at least he had a go though.
Lol that's what u noticed

can you please tell me the difference between caulk and polyfilla.....many thanks.

Put a sheet down first, then use the foam, leave until fully dry, any accidents should come of when fully dry.
@@Inexteriors Thankyou so much..
Appreciated. 😉
Festool
I have looked at the mirka.
@@Inexteriors Nice sender couldnt believe how good it is for keeping the dust away
yep a must buy i sold all my mirka to switch to festool both good sanders though !
@@markcrotty5910 sander, not sender
Intro too long
Thankyou for your input. I do agree, it was changed ages ago.

@Inexteriorstv Hi. I've read they are all flammable, even after drying. Don't know what to believe, really.
