Morning All,
Recently purchased property that has been redecorated throughout although we have kept the laminate floor (Pergo) in one room....I have removed the original Skirting board though as new CH pipes have been fitted and hidden at the base of the wall.
I now have a gap of around 25mm between the flooring on three walls (2 x ends, 1x length) and have some Quick Step skirting that is a close, complementary colour match to fit but it's only 14mm wide !
Initial plan was to either put skirting on the wall and cover the gap with matching Scotia or run a 10mm+ stripwood on the wall to fix the skirting to.
There was however a pack of the original flooring left in the loft so I have a few spare lengths to potentially play with – am now thinking of cutting some 15mm strips and and glueing these to reduce the gap and the skirting can then go straight on the wall and sit on this strip – it is a 9mm thick laminate so a reasonable “face” for adhesive but just wondering what might be the best adhesive to use ?
I've found “Evo Sticks Like Sh*t” quite effective and they do a clear version but wonder if there is anything that might be a “Super Glue” type product suitable for laminate ?
