Why Choose Polystyrene Skirting Board?

Lightweight — extruded polystyrene is significantly lighter than MDF or wood skirting boards, making it easier to handle, cut, and fit — particularly useful for solo installations.

Moisture Resistant — unlike MDF, which swells and deteriorates when exposed to moisture, polystyrene skirting boards are moisture resistant — suitable for kitchens, hallways, and other areas where occasional moisture contact may occur.

Durable — designed to withstand everyday bumps, knocks, and cleaning contact without cracking or chipping.

Cost-effective — polystyrene skirting boards provide a professional finish at a fraction of the cost of solid wood or MDF alternatives.

Easy to Cut — cuts cleanly with a fine tooth saw and mitre box for neat, precise corner joins with no splintering.

Suitable Applications

The 80mm polystyrene skirting board is suitable for:

• Living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways
• Home offices and studies
• Commercial offices and retail spaces
• Renovation and refurbishment projects
• New build installations
• Finishing alongside laminate, vinyl, timber, and other interior floor types

How to Fit Polystyrene Skirting Board

Step 1 — Prepare the Surface
Ensure walls are clean, dry, and dust-free before fitting. Remove any old adhesive, paint flakes, or debris from the wall surface.

Step 2 — Measure and Cut
Measure each wall run accurately. Cut the skirting board to your required length using a fine tooth saw and mitre box for clean, precise corner joins at 45 degrees.

Step 3 — Apply Adhesive
Apply a suitable skirting adhesive in continuous beads to the back of the profile. Do not use solvent-based adhesives, as these may damage the polystyrene material.

Step 4 — Position and Press
Press the profile firmly to the wall, aligning the top edge carefully. Hold in place while the adhesive grabs — Use masking tape to support the profile if required, while curing.

Step 5 — Finish Joints
Wipe away any excess adhesive immediately. Finish all joints and internal corners neatly for a clean, professional result.

Pro Tip: Always use a water-based or specifically polystyrene-compatible adhesive — solvent-based adhesives will dissolve the polystyrene material.
