Why is it worth choosing white skirting boards?

When choosing skirting boards, pay attention to the function they will perform in your apartment. You install skirting boards to hide the expansion gap between the floor and the wall. As a result, the interior looks aesthetically pleasing, and the gaps do not accumulate dirt. In addition, the skirting board protects the wall against dirt and damage, e.g. from a vacuum cleaner. The boards are therefore both an element of interior design and a practical detail. In addition, if necessary, they will hide any cables and other connections inside. That is why the proper selection of skirting boards is such an important matter.

But why choose white skirting boards, when there are also those imitating natural colors and textures of wood on the market? Well, white strips have a whole range of advantages and when properly installed, they will allow you to enjoy a beautiful interior for many years to come. Why?

• They are universal and fit almost any style
• Can be painted in any color.

White skirting boards - which type to choose

As in the case of panels, skirting boards are made of various materials that differ in quality and other important features. Since you have spent a lot of time on choosing the right panels, why would you be indifferent to the topic of skirting? White skirting boards can be made of MDF, PVC and HDPS. But do you know what these abbreviations mean? If not, find the solution to the puzzle below.

Are white boards always the best choice?

Of course not. After all, what one customer likes, will not necessarily suit the taste of the next. Fashion in interior design is as diverse as on the catwalks. Pay attention to how many factors depends on how you choose the skirting boards. You can match them to many elements of the apartment:

• to the floor,
• for walls,
• for woodwork,
• to other interior design elements: furniture and accessories,
• or as a completely contrasting element.

It depends on you what kind of interior you expect. Perhaps you want to achieve a specific effect, e.g. you want to optically enlarge the apartment - then you will choose boards in the color of the panels. Therefore, it cannot be said in general that one solution is better and the other is worse, because you decide how you choose the skirting boards. White, however, is so much more universal that they match most colors and styles, and if this happens one in a million, that they just clash with a certain color, they can always be repainted.

Well-chosen skirting boards are the key to a beautiful interior!

When you arrange an apartment, you often focus on these big things. What floor, what walls, what furniture you’d like. But when you get into the details, you just want to get it over with. Unfortunately, sometimes the smallest detail can spoil the final effect. So don't let go and take the time to choose your skirting boards. White, the shade of the floor or colored - no matter. As long as they perfectly complement the whole interior - because this is your dream interior.
