Hi,
We have an old Victorian house & are putting a new suite into the corner of the master bedroom. We've taken the skirting boards off around the walls where the ensuite build now stands (to be able to get the plumbing, electrics, etc. in before plastering).

Hi - I have followed these boards and just laid a new floor in the kitchen and although not perfect it isn't bad.
I removed the skirting and tiled up to the walls. The old skirting was just that cheap 2.5 inch pine stuff that seemed to be nailed into the walls with 4" nails for some reason. As...

A customer wants me to cut her tiles down to use as a skirting and have the rounded edge of the tile up over
What would you guys use to fix them?

Cheers
