The installation of baseboards is an essential step during the renovation of a floor covering in a house or apartment. These elements ensure a clean finish between the floor and the walls while protecting the base of the partitions from impacts, moisture, and everyday marks. Beyond their functional role, baseboards also contribute to the overall aesthetics of a room by providing a harmonious finish.
In Swiss Romandy, the cost of installation depends on several factors: the total length to be equipped, the rates charged by the craftsman, the fixing technique used, and especially the chosen material. To know precisely the budget needed for your project, Avenir Rénovations offers you a personalized and detailed quote for your baseboard installation work.
PVC skirting boards are among the most affordable options. They easily adapt to many types of flooring such as parquet, vinyl flooring, carpet, or laminate. Lightweight and easy to handle, they are usually fixed by gluing and may be painted to match the interior decor.
PVC thus helps limit the overall budget while allowing for quick installation. Some PVC skirting boards also have an internal compartment to discreetly hide electrical wires.
However, their visual appearance is often simpler than that of other materials. In the French-speaking part of Switzerland, the average cost of a PVC skirting board generally ranges between 8 CHF and 16 CHF per linear meter, including supply and installation.
MDF skirting boards are made from compressed wood fibers covered with a decorative film imitating different wood species, then protected by a finishing layer. They pair perfectly with laminate floors, which explains their popularity in interior design projects.
This material offers a good compromise between cost, durability, and variety of finishes. However, it does not withstand prolonged exposure to moisture well. Therefore, it is best to avoid using it in very humid rooms like certain bathrooms.
In the French-speaking part of Switzerland, the average price for the supply and installation of MDF skirting boards generally ranges between 6 CHF and 21 CHF per linear meter. The teams at Avenir Rénovations assist you in choosing the solution best suited to your interior and budget.
Wood remains the most traditional material for making skirting boards, especially when paired with solid parquet. It is distinguished by its warm aesthetics, strength, and longevity.
Wooden skirting boards also have the advantage of being easy to work with. They can be disassembled, renovated, or repainted during future works, making them a sustainable choice.
The price mainly depends on the selected wood species, such as pine, oak, or beech, as well as the type of finish applied: raw, varnished, oiled, or painted.
In the French-speaking part of Switzerland, the average price for the supply and installation of wooden skirting boards ranges between 7 CHF and 29 CHF per linear meter.
