"Workmen all work to a mystery code. They lurk about your house then periodically sound as though they are drilling in explosive demolition charges. Only tea with an occasional coffee for the weird one (usually a failed computer chap) sates their appetite for menace and dark humour. Give them too much though and they will share with you the latest conspiracy theory for an eternity. You fall to your knees after they eventually leave and swear to God you will do the next job yourself!" Ohhh I thought they all looked like zac effron or dwayne Johnson and in between sips of aforementioned beverage were paying the finishing touches to the wife / girlfriend who accidently stepped out of the shower just as they walked in to the bathroom.... | |||

The floors are concrete
This is why you have structural skirtings. Concrete is very heavy and the usual glued on mdf skirtings would never manage to hold it down. "So what holds the middle down? The purpose of a skirting board is to hide the join between floor and wall. The reason for the large nails is they will go through just about anything and hold secure. A decent nail gun with the large nails is quick and easy. | |||
