Array ( [name] => skirting [title] => Filling the gaps between the skirting board and the floor [content] =>
Skirting boards often have a gap between them and the floor which can create cold draughts and lead to chilly rooms, discomfort during the winter months and increased energy costs.
The size of the gap often varies and traditional filling methods can be messy to install and fall out over time. If you have experienced these problems, DraughtEx is the solution.
The image below shows a typical gap found between the skirting board and the floor.
The gap may look small but it can create very cold draught and makes rooms extremely chilly in the winter months.
Sealing the gaps can help to eliminate cold draughts and improve energy efficiency.
Research by The Energy saving Trust estimates that a household can save £20.00-£40.00/room/year by filling skirting and floorboard gaps.
This video will guide you through the process of fitting Draughtex between your skirting and floor boards.
Please note: The video shows DraughtEx being fitted into the skirting board gap using the free applicator. This is not always possible due to the gap being too small, in this instance a credit card and similar blunt instrument should be used.
