Carcass base where cleaners wet-mop daily
The problem
Contract cleaners wet-mop daily. A timber skirting base wicks that water and swells within the first year.
What ELS does
Stand every carcass on a sealed aluminium or stone plinth.
Why it works
The failure is not the cleaning, it is specifying a domestic base detail for a commercial cleaning regime.
Written for planning, not construction. Confirm every dimension against your approved project drawings.

A timber-veneered sill turns an external corner right where condensation collects, and any concealed timber edge left unsealed there swells and lifts the veneer.
