I recently had my carpet changed for LVT and now the shocking condition of my skirting boards is more obvious. I am not sure if some kind of glue was used with my skirting boards, but they have always had this strange yellowing to them. In the cupboards, the paint is yellow on the skirtingboards and I remember when I have had trades people in before, they have commented on the type of paint that has been used by the builders as this causes paint not exposed to sunlight to yellow.
The condition of the paint on the walls is equally shocking.
What would need to be done to restore my skirtingboards?
Would it just be a case of sanding and re-painting them? If so, would something like masking or frog tape on the bottom part protect the lvt enough?
Is there a sander which will also hover the dust away at the same time?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. My house isn't even 5 years old, so didn't really expect I would be needing to paint things up already but there we go.
