"Ct1 is the best but expensive. Grip fill is good cheaper alternative but you need to move the skirting to break the skin it forms once you push together to get the best bond. Then a few small pins to keep in place until the adhesive has cured."

"Great question! If you'd prefer to avoid using nails, a strong grab adhesive is a popular and effective option for fixing skirting boards. Look for high-strength, fast-grab adhesives specifically designed for interior woodwork—products like No More Nails, Gripfill, or Stixall are commonly used and trusted by both DIYers and professionals.
Hope that helps, and good luck with your project!"
