I have a metabo 110 voltage,never let me down. Excellent for compound mitres also.

Virgil · Answer

For accurate work I use allways Dewalt chop saw as Professionals but if you don't want spend a lot money you can hire a Carpenter to do the work for you.

Thomas · Answer

Make sure the saw you get can fit the size of the skirting on the cut and that it can reach all angles , if you only need to do it one there are plenty diy saws out there to use and most of them will do the job as long as it’s the right soze

Michael · Answer

any desent chop saw will cut mitres but it will cost more than geting a carpenter for the day

David · Answer

Depends upon your budget. There are so many to choose from
Will it be for a one off skirting job, or will you have further use for it? If not, then take a lower priced one from B&Q or Wickes.

Dominic · Answer

The dewalt chop saw from screwfix is pretty good. The blade depth is not the biggest but should get most common skirts & archs done. It's selling for £220 at the moment.

Scott · Answer

It all depends on the money you want to spend.  I have 3 different saws all for different purposes.  I’d suggest einhell is cheap but pretty decent if you zero the blade properly and is good for light work, dewalt is a bit more pricey but it’s usually well built and aimed more towards trade works

Patrick · Answer

Dewalt is good make, but if you go to screwfix, evolution is about 100 / 125  with leg’s/ stand , and is a very good little mitre saw .
