Will it need to come off ever? I dislike 'beading' to cover gaps in laminate floors so prefer to take the skirting boards off, do the floor with the usual expansion gap along the wall and then re-fit the skirting boards. The first one I did, well over 10 years ago, needed the floor re-doing recently (walls last longer than floors) so I was pleased I had just blobbed the skirtings back on with a minimum amount of the screwfix equivalent of no more nails. Thin scraper behind, popped off in seconds.
Glue + long brads great - until it needs to come off again. Different if its a customer of course, I'm diy.
(I admit I am slightly obsessive about future maintenence, if you pull the bookshelf on the landing out you will find a panel hidden behind it, open that and you find H&C stopcocks for the en suite. A simlar panel hides stopcocks for the utility room. One architrave in the living room is lightly 'wedged' in place so I can access an ethernet juction, one skirting board in dining room is loose fitted with hi-fi wiring behind. Why make the future more difficult than it needs to be. If I had my way, there would be cable trays just below the ceiling in most rooms and water pipes on the outside of things not behind....)
