Baseboards play an important role in finishing the furnishings of our homes. Besides being functional and hiding floor imperfections, they make the transition smoother between parquet and wall, eliminating the unpleasant visual impact, as they also have a strong aesthetic and decorative role.
Well-chosen baseboards, depending on the color of the parquet and walls, will integrate perfectly into the style chosen for decorating the rooms. For a quick result with a perfect finish, you can choose PVC baseboards, like these, which come in different colors and can be easily adapted to any type of laminate flooring.
The advantages of this type of baseboard lie in the fact that they allow cables to be hidden thanks to the straight channel of the baseboard. Thus, you can easily get rid of telephone, internet, sound system and intercom cables without having to complete the decor with a cable duct.
Connecting the baseboards is very simple, through connectors, and the finish will be achieved by mounting special caps, such as these.
Baseboard installation can be done in three ways: by gluing with silicone adhesive, by fixing to a rail mounted on the wall, or by fixing with screws and plugs inserted into the wall. After installing the laminate flooring, the baseboard is measured and cut to the length of the wall, and then fixed, following the perfect outline of the room.
To mask the joints, corners will be used, some for interior corners, others for exterior corners. Baseboard maintenance will be done in the same way as laminate flooring maintenance.
