Why Install Skirting Boards with Tec7?

Using Tec7 instead of mechanical fixings provides a clean, professional finish while simplifying installation — especially when working across multiple substrate types without the need for changing tools.

Key Benefits

• No visible nail holes – eliminates filling, sanding, and touch-up work
• Reduced risk of splitting or cracking delicate or pre-finished profiles
• Flexible bond – absorbs minor movement and reduces stress on joints
• Improved hold on masonry, concrete, and uneven substrates
• No risk of hitting hidden services (electrical wiring or plumbing)
• Quieter installation – ideal for renovation or occupied spaces
• Works across multiple substrate types without changing tools

Adhesive fixing provides a strong, durable bond while delivering a cleaner final result compared to traditional nailing methods.

Installation Steps

1. Ensure the wall and rear of the skirting board are clean, dry, and free from dust or loose material.
2. Degrease the back of the skirting boards with Multiclean.
3. Apply Tec7 in continuous vertical beads to the back of the skirting board (refer to 6mm Bead Application Method).
4. Position the skirting board and press firmly into place to compress the adhesive.
5. Adjust alignment immediately if required.
