Skirting

Good morning.

Complete novice wanting to re-do skirting throughout my flat as cheaply as possible as I am renting, but the place needs overhaul - can anyone give me the cheapest way to do this, I am wanting to use non-molded boards, at approx 6.5"????

Thanks in advance

Steve

I'd ask the landlord for some money towards this if I was you as he will benefit as well. At least get him to pay for the materials and then you fit them-

Grab adhesive can be used to fix the skirting in place.

is it worth, as you are going to make the land lords place better out of you'r own cash

and then he will withhold the deposit as you changed his existing skirting without permission
