It is necessary.

One of the functions of skirting is its protective function. The baseboard, as the name implies, is the area of ??the wall that can be kicked by feet, so it is more susceptible to impact. Making skirting can better make the connection between the wall and the ground stronger, reduce the deformation of the wall, and avoid damage caused by external force collision. In addition, the baseboards are also easier to scrub. If dirty water splashes on the mopping floor, scrubbing is very convenient. In addition to its own function of protecting the wall, skirting also plays a considerable role in the beauty of the home. It is the contour line of the ground, and the line of sight often naturally falls on it. In general decoration, the thickness of the skirting line outside the wall is 5mm-12mm.
