Hello
I've ripped out old skirting and want to put some new stuff in. Questions
1. The walls are not straight! What is the best way to make the mitre - accept its not straight and make the angle? How do I work out the angle and what mitre I should use.
2. How far off the floorboards should I put the skirting - 1mm?
3. I have a 10 fount wall and want to use one piece of skirting but some bits of the wall are straight and others are not. This means over the length of the wall the corners are not 90 degrees but if I cut the 10 foot length then over a shorter distance the wall is straight - is it a good idea to cut into smaller pieces or accept the angle is not 90 degress and fill the gaps!
Any help appreciated!
