Skirting Board Painting Service by MJ Kloss

As part of your home's woodwork, your skirting boards deserve just as much attention as your walls and ceilings. They’re not just functional; they’re an essential part of your room’s design. At MJ Kloss, we specialise in professional skirting board painting that elevates the look of your interiors. Whether you’re after a subtle finish or a bold statement, our expert team ensures flawless results every time.

Why Choose Professional Skirting Board Painting?

Painting skirting boards might seem like a straightforward task, but achieving a perfect finish requires skill, precision, and attention to detail. A poorly painted skirting board can stick out like a sore thumb, undermining the overall appearance of your room.

Our team understands the technicalities involved in skirting board painting, from surface preparation to selecting the right type of paint. Whether it’s gloss, satin, or eggshell, we use products that are durable, scuff-resistant, and designed to withstand daily wear and tear.

The MJ Kloss Process: Excellence at Every Step

We’ve developed a meticulous process to ensure every skirting board we paint meets our high standards. Here’s how we do it:

1. Thorough Preparation

Preparation is key to a smooth, professional finish. We start by cleaning the skirting boards to remove dust, dirt, and grease. If there are any old paint layers or uneven surfaces, we sand them down to create a smooth base. Cracks, gaps, or damage? No problem. We fill these with high-quality wood filler for a seamless look.

2. Masking and Protection

Protecting your floors and walls is a priority. We use precision masking tape and dust sheets to ensure clean, crisp edges and avoid any splatters or drips. Your home is treated with care and respect at all times.

3. Priming for Perfection

Priming is crucial for ensuring paint adheres properly and provides even coverage. We choose primers specifically formulated for wood surfaces, enhancing the final finish and improving the paint’s durability.

4. Flawless Painting

Using high-quality brushes and rollers, we apply the chosen paint in smooth, even strokes. We recommend multiple thin coats rather than one thick layer to achieve a durable and professional finish. For high-traffic areas, we often suggest a durable gloss or satin finish that’s both easy to clean and resistant to scuffs.

5. Final Touches

After the paint has dried, we remove all masking tape and inspect the skirting boards for any imperfections. If touch-ups are needed, we take care of them on the spot. The result? Perfectly painted skirting boards that enhance your room’s aesthetic.

    Skirting FAQs

    How long does it take to paint skirting boards?

    The time required depends on the size of the space and the condition of the skirting boards. On average, it takes a day to prepare, paint, and finish a standard room.

    Can you paint over existing skirting board paint?

    Yes, but proper preparation is essential. We sand and prime the surface to ensure the new paint adheres perfectly and looks smooth.

    What paint is best for skirting boards?

    For durability and a professional finish, we recommend gloss or satin paints. Eggshell can also work well for a more subtle look.

    Do I need to replace my skirting boards before painting?

    Not necessarily. If your skirting boards are in good condition, a professional paint job can bring them back to life. For damaged skirting, we can fill and repair minor issues or recommend replacement if needed.
