Looking for advice on the best way to fit skirting to this wall.
Pulled off the old and most of the plaster had crumbled. The old skirting was nailed into the mortar joints.
Was thinking clearing most of the loose plaster and 'no nailing' several wooden noggins to the brick then plastering down to 10mm off the floorboards. Then screw the new skirting to the noggins.Dont think no nailing skirting onto new plaster would get a tight enough fit.
Would this be acceptable?
Any better ways?
