To decorate the ceilings of your rooms, you can stick a special skirting board on them. He presents the ceiling and wallpaper in all rooms a really finished image.

1. First you will need to make some calculations of the amount of ceiling plinths you need for you. To do this, it is necessary to measure the perimeter of the rooms with a meter, and the resulting amounts will be a long skirting board you need. You can choose different types of ceiling decor for your rooms, given your taste and design features of the apartment.

2. Before you start working, you must get acquainted with the process of cutting the baseboard, especially to glue it in all corners of the rooms, their joints. It is recommended for this to use such a building element as a wort. Such a tool has a slot on its sides, which correspond to the given angles. Cutters are made using the sharp mounting knife in slots located under the required degrees.

3. Now let’s move on to gluing skirting boards. What is the best way to do this? How to find the upper or lower sides on them? Where we glue the wide side? The answers to these questions are simple. If you need to glue the baseboard on a wide gap, then we attach it to the walls with similar sides. If the boundaries of the glued wallpaper enter the ceiling, then the wide side of the skirting boards is glued to it. Do not be afraid to glue the baseboard on uneven surfaces, it will stay on them very well and look pretty beautiful. Premises that occupy a large area and have rather high ceilings also need to be decorated with skirting boards with a wide side. The widespread sides of the skirting boards make small rooms more, creating a kind of illusion. For those who just want to decorate the ceiling and its corners, narrow skirting boards are best suited. They are neat and quite attractive.

4. After measurements, circumcision of the baseboard should be firmly and reliably glued. It is necessary to apply a lot of glue, but, in no case do not overdo it. Well, if you still overdid it and the glue began to get out under the baseboard, then it should be immediately wiped with a dry rag until it froze. The quality of work in this case is above all. After the glue hardening, fill all the joints with special high -quality silicone glue, apply it to the visible gaps.

5. Well, in the end, if the skirting board has not an impressive look, then you should choose a beautiful paint and paint the skirting board in this or another color. Keep in mind that if you bought a skirting board already painted, then applying another layer of paint on it is extremely not recommended.

Do everything clearly and slowly, then you will get a beautiful ceiling and a wonderful skirting board, glued correctly to it correctly and reliably.
