A skirting assembly comprises a skirting board 14 of either wood, plastic or metal material and a backing plate 13 which are secured to the floor 11 and, or wall 10. There is a gap formed between the lower surface of the skirting board and the backing plate sufficiently deep to accommodate the thickest carpet 12. On the lower part of the backing plate there are one or more rows of upturned spikes 15 suitable for the retention of carpet. A finishing strip 16, whose purpose is to conceal the gap left between the top of the carpet and the skirting board, is releasably secured to the skirting board by adhesive. The skirting assembly may be cut, joined or mitred and besides securing carpet it will also accommodate other flexible floor coverings. <IMAGE> |
