My daughter is currently building a house and wants to use plastic skirting boards (to avoid painting now and in the future). I have found several sites but they all seem really expensive - especially doing a whole house. Does anyone know of a supplier who they can recommend?  I have been told to contact local upvc suppliers but they all seem to deal with double glazed windows, fascias etc and not skirting boards. Grateful for any help.

yep never tried plastic for skirting
would deffinatly suggest mdf for the same reasons as keith

is she shure she wants to be stuck with white skirting in every room regardless off colours chosen for decoration for the next 30 years or so
