There are a few jobs around the house that most of us just put off for as long as possible, at least until it gets to the point where we just can’t stand it anymore and we’re forced to buckle down and do it, at least for our own sanity and cleaning the skirting boards is certainly one of those.  Yep, those boards that line the space between the floor and the walls get amazingly dirty, especially for something that really never gets touched.

All sorts of grime, splashes, and dust end up on these, and if you’ve got a bit of damp, they get even filthier.

Rather than having to really throw your back into this job once a year or so, we have three sensible ways today to clean your skirting boards and one very clever trick everyone should try to keep them free from build up in the future.
