Skirting boards… every house has them, and nearly every house has a dirty skirting board. Why are they usually in bad condition? Well, maintenance isn’t exactly easy. They collect dust and dirt with ease and well, no-one can really be bothered to break their backs to clean them!
All you have to do is have a good-old scrub with warm water and soap. Liquid can also be used, but soap is preferable. Make sure you get the excess water out and wipe the boards thoroughly.
Once the dirt has disappeared, you have to rub the soap off. Do this by using warm water and a clean rag/towel.
If you have hard dirt on your skirting board, then we suggest mixing warm water with vinegar. Only try this after you have attempted cleaning with water and soap. If you dislike vinegar, then you can use bleach.
