Great to find a UK based home DIY advice channel with every bit of info I need to tackle our home as first time owners planning to do everything ourselves outside of gas and electric. Subbed.👍

I'm going to need to watch this a few more times before I tackle an internal corner but I feel like I can do it myself now. Thank you !

Very informative video. I remember the days when I scrabbled about on the floor cutting butt and scribes before chop saws and I used a nobex hand saw. As you get older you find cutting the skirting on a pair of stools with a couple of scaffold boards spread across them saves your knees and back.
Can’t say I ever worried about cutting the scribe to suit how it looked coming into the room as I always tried to cut the scribes on the right hand end as being right handed your coping saw is always in the same place when you need it.
When house bashing I would measure each room on a floor and cut the whole lot in one go and then fix it all off at once as there is speed in repetitive actions. Do all the cutting then do all the fixing, but each persons works to what suits them. The video is ideal though for beginner DIYers so well done for simplifying the operation.

I watched loads of videos on how to lay flooring, yours was the best. I watched it twice and away I went. Same with the skirting. You guys give the precise right amount of info. The full on cockney accents defo add to it too. Well played lads.

I wasn't convinced when you didn't do 45's for the corners. But I was proved wrong. GG WP haha. Thanks for the vid.

Just one tip I would add. To make the skirting easier to paint, I use a spacer (credit card depth) when fixing the skirting to create a 1/2mm gap above the flooring. Leaves enough room to run some masking tape around the perimeter (and just in, under the skirting) and saves a lot of cutting in where the skirting might be touching the floor.

Class video boys, top job! I need to do this in one of our rooms as the previous owners ripped off a whole length of skirting to fit a wardrobe, taking a chunk of plaster with it 🤦‍♂️😂
