"Skirting boards rarely get a second glance, but look closely and you'll see they're doing more than you realise. They protect walls, frame floors, and, inevitably, gather a fair bit of dust in the process. In fact, skirting boards might be one of the most overlooked details in a home. Clean trim can completely change the feel of a room, brightening walls and floors and giving your whole space a 'just-finished' look."
"Start with a vacuumUse the nozzle brush or crevice tool to vacuum up any dust that may have collected on the top of the skirting board. This helps prevent dust from smearing when you start wiping down. If you have pets or a busy household, go over your skirting boards with your vacuum's upholstery attachment each week to stop build-up."
Skirting boards protect walls, frame floors, and commonly collect dust and scuffs that dull a room's appearance. Clean trim can brighten walls and floors and give a space a finished look. Start by vacuuming skirting tops with a nozzle brush or crevice tool to remove loose dust and avoid smearing. Protect flooring with an old towel or dust sheet before wiping. Use a mild solution of warm water and a few drops of washing-up liquid to lift dust, grease and light scuffs without damaging paint or varnish. Weekly attention helps prevent build-up in busy or pet households.
